To their credit, Charlotteans generally are much more zealous about boosterism for their city than Raleigh residents. You can see that on urbanism forums that have many Charlotteans singing how Charlotte is a world class city, growing so fast, has an incredible skyline, is vying for the Olympics. Charlotte likes to envision itself as the next DC, Atlanta. In contrast, on the Raleigh forum, there are fewer posts, and the postings reflect a more modest, suburban, small city, laid back, and pedestrian.

I'd be curious to see how many posts from this thread came from Charlotte vs Raleigh. I think that would be a telling piece of data.
As for the Triangle's Forum, it's the most active metro forum in all of C-D and people who use it don't typically care about the other ones no less this particular thread.
But you post just as much as the "charlotte boosters" in this thread....
Here is an article from the Charlotte Business Journal that really highlights something that the Triangle and Charlotte have in common. It has a link for an article in the Atlamtic by Richard Florida.
The REAL Charlotte vs Raleigh debate actually happened with the CIAA tournament...
You know your right. That solves the debate. All the trouble that came along with it reflects well for charlotte to huh?
