1. Advertisements
NS2 has crappy advertisements, they increased the amount of time a page takes to load, and they're annoying, because apparently nobody wants to donate money to them, so they have to put the advertisements. thankfully, this place doesn't have that kind of crap, and pages load easily and fast (for me)
2. Arcade
This place has an arcade system, so that when users are bored, or have nothing to post, they can spend time on the arcade having fun or trying to improve a high score
3. Administrators
This place has mods that are awesome, compared to NS2's mods. Our Administrators are cool and were famous Nsiders at the time. now compare, who do you prefer? A cool mod or admin that a normal nsider would easily recognize, or some person that got only up to cappy and only made a few posts and that got permabanned (*coughEJcough*)
This is not a rant or flaming. I am only comparing these 2 places
If you have more things that should be added post and I will edit the thread
Also this place has me, which is all it needs.
Umm, most mods will deny that they are nice. You go to the intro board, you better be followin them thar rules >:(

If you make a topic at Nsider2, it gets pushed down by spam topics.

I think of this place as the Wii, and NS2 as the PS3.
We're cheap (hosting-wise), but reliable. We have quality games (members) and great hardware (features). We may not be as powerful (memberwise), but we're better.
NS2 is more powerful (memberwise), but with few good games (features) and lots of hardware problems (downtime) and it's very expensive ($750 per month).
I agree with everything you said especially the spam. its impossible to post something without getting a dumb repsonse.
This place is better because NSider2 sucks. Simple as that.
there mods/adims keep changeing, one day there a mod, next a admin, then there banned, then a sage, then a mod again, and so forth
People here actually seem to have a good sense of fun and humor....
And also, this place actually acts like a community :P

NS2 also has more members which means you get replies faster. Also, I like their board software (Invision) better.
But this one is free of anoying controversy, so it kind of evens itself out. ;)

but half of their power on crap is spam, anyways. and wait a week and we'll have enough members. plus we have a better community. and no lamemods/admins.
I was going to post an ad, but I was too lazy to make one.

Spam is mostly in power on.. but other than that you're right.
As for a week... I'm not so sure about that, but if the problems don't even out, then I guess its very possible.
This place would be better if more people were here, but not too many.
I remember when NS2 was the place for "grown ups". That was when it was less popular. As soon as nearly everyone joined there, it became spammy and this place started seeming more mature.
As a former NS2 staff member I can say that no matter what I tried to do we just could not get on the same page. I was considered on of the better moderators since I was not too strict or lienient. I always did what I thought was right for the users and that is what got EJ mad at me and got him to kick me off the staff. He did not like that I was telling everyone the truth even if it made him look bad.
Well that being said I will admit you guys do have a very nice forum here and I do enjoy my time here and plan to spend more time here than on NS2.
We have a thread for this...
As a side note, we're going to be putting in ONE ad soon.
Just a simple banner, probably. We just need money to pay for various things.
