Scubaboard if the only site I check daily - usually twice daily if I am not overworked.
I check in now and then on a black powder cartridge rifle site since it's support my 45-70 sharps addiction:

And I check in now and then at a vintage dive site because I like old scuba stuff and the members there are truly superb people:
http://vintagescuba.proboards2.com/
And I check in at the Deco Stop occassionally, but enjoyment varies depending on whether the tone is being dominated by reasonable and experienced divers or whether it's a combination of posers, patch divers, wannabees and ego maniacs. That gets old in a hurry.
A couple years ago when I worked for Just Flight and Alpha Simulations as a flight sim developer, I used to moderate at Netwings, but that got pretty old due to the general lack of maturity there and often argumentive gamers. I got tired of being attacked by morons for suggesting things like a 1.5 lb chunk of foam at 500mph really could in fact punch a hole in the leading edge of the space shuttle's wing (my academic career started in aeronautical engineering and from personal experience as a pilot I know that a 1.5 lb duck will punch right through the windshield of a light aircraft at only 100 mph). After a while you get tired of trying to educate the stupid.
