RWI, RWG.bz, RWGForum, RepGeek etc. What's the difference?

[elliaz]

Fellow members,
I've tried to search about the question on each forum although still haven't got an answer... My question is:
What's the main difference between the rep forums?

As I've understood, RWI is the "dark side" (although I really don't know why?) and thats all ...
I personally use RWI mostly but tend to go to RWGForum for tips on Franken Rolexes and RepGeek for reviews of Untrusted Dealers...

Or are they just of the same general concept with different Mods/Members?

A lot of the same members that favour one board over the other...most of us are on all the boards....each board has it's own personality.

"This Hobby is Crack!"

They are all the same concept, but with slightly different flavors

 

[elliaz]

So it's all about the taste.. Thanks guys!

What's with the "dark side" nickname then?

What's the main difference between the rep forums?

The color?
Personally I like the black theme of RWI, it's easy on my eyes that's why I spend more hours here than anywhere else.

Now I got everything straight! Thanks lads

Its all down to personal choice.

RWI is the sister site of RWG.BZ

An interesting recount of how all the forums came about

Here is my opinion of the different forums.

RWI- I think the most rounded forum

RWG- I get the opinion that anything goes, it's like the Wild West...maybe I should be there. Lol

RG- I thinks is very similar to here but smaller.

TRC- buddy club

Homage Forum- for the serious homage builder.

Wrist Check- a lot like TRC but bigger.

 

[kilowattore]

Friendly people everywhere, but no place like RWI

 

[elliaz]

Zero_deficit Thanks for the thread that acctually sums up everything in great detail!
And Subjeff, I've experienced almost the same considering personalities :lol:

So do I.

Many members have profiles on several of the sites. However, while I occasionally visit the others, especially when using the Tapatalk feed, RWI seems more active and is where my heart lies!

 

[mitchbaria]

Another words there's more retards posting on the other boards.. but seemingly less noob control here (for the moment)...lol

08/26/2006 wow now THAT is a resurrected thread


I, for instance, have been around all 4 boards since early/mid 2006. Now that means exactly jack shit but I still have been around a while. Like it was said, most guys I know across The Big Four is one ends up being home. For me has always been RWI.

P.S. Somehow the archives of or at RWG.bz were lost..I ended up having to re-join it sometime in 2011 I believe. My memory can be shaky today

The other sites are good too. It's just that I only have time to regularly post to one and it's RWI. This is mainly because I wanted to see the views of other men from across the globe on other topics aside from watches and here is where it is most active.
