2.all the northerners drive sooo far just so they can spend their vacation at the redneck capital of the se. blacks tend to like it too.
3.you have to be 21 to buy in myrtle too, believe it or not
4.you don't have to go during bike week. (bikers and everyone else want to go there for a reason btw)
5.they don't let tattood girls anywhere else. its a rare thing you only see at myrtle
6. alcohol is not permitted on myrtle beach either (or the strip for that matter) and enforced by a jerk over hired police force

not gonna happen in myrtle. myrtle is actually the worst beach to go if you want to drink. so you selfpwn and lose this one too.

"and any reccomendations on places to stay, eat or see are welcome"

if you're looking for a cheapest place to stay stay at catoe villa. its about 4 blocks south of where the pavilion used to be but it doesn't have a website. If you're looking for quality value stay at the breakers, patricia grand or crown reef. the top 2 hotels on the beach are rundown and being renovated but next year yachtsman and captain quarters will be back to value.

For breakfast eat at golden griddle in downtown north myrtle. privately run mom pop type place and is the best breakfast i've had in the states.

Theres a bbq place in myrtle that has received awards 11 years in a row and been seen on good morning america as the best bbq in the country. Its different from nc as it is slow smoked in like a 30 hour cook time. Check it out inside every wall is covered in trophies.

benjamins on restaurant row is the best of the calabash buffets. The place is a huge ship with old buoys in the parking lot so you can't miss it.

pier 14? is a great restaurant on a pier.Theres a philly steak place on kings highway that is owned by a guy that ran the famous pats king of steaks i think, in philly, got divorced and moved to here to open this. There are so many options of every different genre. I've eaten at both the best italian and jap places i've ever eaten in the us but forgot the names because theres a million places everywhere there.

Next year when hardrock park opens myrtle will explode (yes thats possible)

You're right dude, i have nothing against you. It's just that the point of this thread is making fun of Myrtle beach for being named number 1. So kinda the whole point is to make fun of it.

As bobbydigital said "well, clearly this is a bullshit list."

If someone was asking advice about myrtle beach then i could see your point.

^^you're the one being an asshole if you're actually recommending people go to myrtle instead of other beaches

hey remember that analogy you made about a baked potato and condiments? i like mine with butter...sometimes with cheese, bacon and chives too

thats like charleston or ocean isle or wrightsville

myrtle is like a baked potato with butter, sour cream, chives, bacon, cheese, mayonaise, dog shit, eggs, ketchup, mustard, chicken nuggets, cat turds, semen, urine, ebola, aids, hiv, and bleu cheese

you guys are so cool. making fun of a city for being number 1 on a professional ranking! go you.

I didn't recommend anyone anywhere, (people go where they want and want to go to myrtle), but if you think there is animal shit on myrtle beach you should probably go back considering pets are not permitted and wild animals have been ran away.

Animal shit will be found at the primitive beaches because theres nothing to do there so people bring their pets to entertain them.

At the end of the day most of you are going to have to learn that you're not going to agree with alot of things in life. Just because something isn't the way you would have it doesn't mean its bullshit. The world doesn't center around your opinion.

That would be more of a "professional ranking" considering it's from "Dr. Beach" who i think even went to state. So he's a "professional" more so than a yahoo list probably supported by sponsers and whoever pays the most for ads.

thats a different kind of ranking. Actually, its almost quite the opposite. that ranking is pretty much based on nature. Nature is not high on most people's list of things they want in a beach. There are things people look for in a vacation.

eat
shop
play
lodge- at a big resort

and myrtle has an unlimited amount of those things as well as a beach with everything except wildlife, nature (as i mentioned many people don't like "nature"). Many of the people who go to myrtle would find Ocracoke boring.

And despite the lies you guys tell, Myrtle does not have a nasty beach. The beach is clean with white sand and even if you were a person that loved nature you could go to the state park in myrtle beach to get it so its win win.

dr beach's list is not wrong but its not talking about the same thing. I'm sure he hates myrtle just as much as you if not more. It would be like an environmental scientist's best car. If you don't understand that then i'm done.

Until you can come up with one reason why people go past nc beaches to get to myrtle beach you have absolutely no argument. You're the same group of people that think all pop music sucks.

^ No i enjoy alot of "pop" music. To say i don't like popular music would be silly. There's bad pop and there's good pop.

You're completely right, i'll give you that. Many people do not want to see "nature" and i've stayed at Myrtle beach state park, but it's still FARRR from nature. The lists are different lists, and i guess i'm still debating the phrasing "world's best beach". In my opinion a beach is a beach, and then there's Myrtle beach. I guess our definitions of a beach vary.

If this list were titled "most popular tourist destination in south carolina" i wouldn't have an issue with it. But calling it "the world's best beach" is disgracing all the actual true beaches out there. Again our definition of beach varys.

people dont usually go to the beach or mountains just to shop...they go for the beach or the mountains...if you want to go someplace with no "nature" (even though the beach and ocean themselves are 100% nature) just stay in the city. charlotte might as well be a better beach

Introduction
This chapter describes how to significantly increase the granularity of network traffic analysis by combining two key features of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches: Remote Switched Port Analyzer (RSPAN) and the redirect feature of VLAN access control lists (VACLs). RSPAN and VACLs can be combined for increased granularity in analyzing the traffic.
Using RSPAN combined with VACL redirect differs from the use of both the Catalyst 6500 SPAN and the Catalyst 6500 VACL capture.
Note This document is based on Cisco IOS software, but most of the concepts are equally applicable to Cisco Catalyst IOS.
This chapter includes the following sections:
• Traffic Capture Requirements
• Using VACLs
• Using SPAN
• Capturing and Differentiating Traffic on Multiple Ports
• Conclusion
Traffic Capture Requirements
When configuring traffic capture for the purposes of intrusion detection analysis, anomaly detection, or simply for traffic analysis with one or more sniffers, the normal requirements are the following:
• Monitor a set of ports or VLANs without affecting the forwarding performance of the Layer 3 switch—You can do this by using features implemented in hardware such as SPAN or VACL capture.
• Monitoring switched and routed frames—when traffic is routed from one VLAN to another, the copied traffic can be tagged with either VLAN, so you must design traffic capturing so that the monitoring port can forward either frame.
• Avoiding the generation of duplicates frames—Depending on the reference for the SPAN or capture (port or VLAN incoming or outgoing direction), there are situations where the switch can generate multiple copies of the same frame, which is undesirable and can be addressed with proper design.
• Filtering out uninteresting packets from the copied traffic—To optimize the performance of the devices that are monitoring the traffic, it is best to drop copies of the frames that are not interesting in hardware. For example, you can combine multiple hardware features to ensure that a sensor or a sniffer sees only HTTP traffic.
• Support for several “sessions”—Sessions can be conceived as funnels receiving copies of traffic from multiple ports to one or multiple sensor ports. For example, traffic from port A, B, and C copied to port D is one session, and traffic from port E, F, and G copied to port H is another session. You do not want all traffic from A, B, C, E, F, and G to go out to both port D and H, because this is equivalent to having a single session.
Using VACLs
VACLs are a security enforcement tool based on Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 information. A VACL lookup against a packet can result in a permit, a deny, a permit and capture, or a redirect. When you associate a VACL with a particular VLAN, all traffic must be permitted by the VACL before the traffic is allowed into the VLAN. VACLs are enforced in hardware, so there is no performance penalty for applying VACLs to a VLAN on the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches.
Note In this chapter, the terminology VACL and VLAN access map are used interchangeably.
VACL Command Syntax
VACLs can be used with the following types of traffic:
• IP
• IPX
• MAC
IP
IP VACLs match IP traffic, using the following syntax:
router(config)# ip access-list extended name
router(config-ext-nacl)# {deny | permit} protocol {source-source-wildcard | any} {destination- destination-wildcard | any} [precedence precedence] [tos tos] [established] [log | log-input] [time-range time-range-name] [fragments]
The protocol field can take the following values:
router(config-ext-nacl)#permit ?
<0-255> An IP protocol number
ahp Authentication Header Protocol
eigrp Cisco's EIGRP routing protocol
esp Encapsulation Security Payload
gre Cisco's GRE tunneling
icmp Internet Control Message Protocol
igmp Internet Gateway Message Protocol
igrp Cisco's IGRP routing protocol
ip Any Internet Protocol
ipinip IP in IP tunneling
nos KA9Q NOS compatible IP over IP tunneling
ospf OSPF routing protocol
pcp Payload Compression Protocol
pim Protocol Independent Multicast
tcp Transmission Control Protocol
udp User Datagram Protocol

For TCP/UDP traffic, you can match Layer 4 ports:
router(config-ext-nacl)# {deny | permit} {tcp | udp} {source-source-wildcard | any} [operator port] {destination-destination-wildcard | any} [operator port] [established] [precedence precedence] [tos tos] [log | log-input] [time-range time-range-name] [fragments]
IPX
IPX VACLs match IPX traffic using the following syntax:
router(config)#ipx access-list extended name
router(config-ipx-ext-nacl)# {deny | permit} protocol [source-network][[[.source-node] source-node-mask] | [.source-node source-network-mask.source-node-mask]] [source-socket] [destination.network][[[.destination-node] destination-node-mask] | [.destination-node destination-network-mask.destination-node-mask]] [destination-socket] [log] [time-range time-range-name]
MAC
MAC VACLs match non-IP, non-IPX traffic using the following syntax:
router(config)#mac access-list extended name
router(config-ext-macl)# {permit | deny} {src-mac-mask | any} {dest-mac-mask | any} [ethertype]

The Ethertype field can take the following values:
router(config-ext-macl)#permit any any ?
aarp EtherType: AppleTalk ARP
amber EtherType: DEC-Amber
appletalk EtherType: AppleTalk/EtherTalk
dec-spanning EtherType: DEC-Spanning-Tree
decnet-iv EtherType: DECnet Phase IV
diagnostic EtherType: DEC-Diagnostic
dsm EtherType: DEC-DSM
etype-6000 EtherType: 0x6000
etype-8042 EtherType: 0x8042
lat EtherType: DEC-LAT
lavc-sca EtherType: DEC-LAVC-SCA
mop-console EtherType: DEC-MOP Remote Console
mop-dump EtherType: DEC-MOP Dump
msdos EtherType: DEC-MSDOS
mumps EtherType: DEC-MUMPS
netbios EtherType: DEC-NETBIOS
vines-echo EtherType: VINES Echo
vines-ip EtherType: VINES IP
xns-idp EtherType: XNS IDP
VACL Capture
The VACL capture feature allows you to mirror traffic to ports configured to forward capture traffic. The capture action sets the capture bit for the forwarded packets so that ports with the capture function enabled can receive the packets. Only forwarded packets can be captured.
CatOS Configuration Examples
The following commands create a security ACL to capture all traffic on VLAN 10 and send the traffic to port 3/5.
catOS6500 (enable) set security acl ip CATCHALL permit ip any any capture
catOS6500 (enable) commit security acl CATCHALL
catOS6500 (enable) set security acl map CATCHALL 10
catOS6500 (enable) set security acl capture-ports 8/25
To remove the VACL capture, use the clear security acl CATCHALL command. To commit the changes, use the commit security acl CATCHALL command.
IOS Configuration Examples
The following commands create a security ACL to capture all traffic on VLAN 10:
ip access-list extended IP-catch-all
permit ip any any
!
vlan access-map CATCHALL 10
match ip address IP-catch-all
action forward capture
!
vlan filter CATCHALL vlan-list 10
!
interface FastEthernet8/25
switchport
switchport capture
switchport capture allowed vlan 10
no shut
!
Capturing Locally Switched Traffic
The following configuration demonstrates how VACL capture works. You first define the interesting traffic that you want to monitor; for example, HTTP traffic (as defined in the ACL “HTTPTRAFFIC”). Then you define a VACL (or VLAN access map, which in this example is also called “HTTPTRAFFIC”).
The VACL provides two functions. It filters the traffic on the VLAN to which you assign it, and it provides a copy of the traffic to the sensing interface (“action forward capture”) for the entries configured to forward and capture; in this example, it is “vlan access-map HTTPTRAFFIC 10”).
In this example, the VACL “HTTPTRAFFIC” is assigned to VLAN 10 (“vlan filter HTTPTRAFFIC vlan-list 10”).
ip access-list extended HTTPTRAFFIC
permit tcp any any eq www
permit tcp any eq www any
!
ip access-list extended IP-catch-all
permit ip any any
!
vlan access-map HTTPTRAFFIC 10
match ip address HTTPTRAFFIC
action forward capture
vlan access-map HTTPTRAFFIC 20
match ip address IP-catch-all
action forward
!
vlan filter HTTPTRAFFIC vlan-list 10
!
interface FastEthernet8/25
switchport
switchport capture
switchport capture allowed vlan 10
no shut
!
Captured traffic is sent out on port FastEthernet8/25 as indicated by the configuration (“switchport capture allowed vlan 10”)
Using VACL capture for mirroring traffic provides very good scalability for mirroring locally-switched traffic, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Using VACL Capture to Mirror Locally Switched Traffic

In this topology, the switch is configured on four VLANs. The traffic from these VLANs is mirrored to three monitoring devices because VACLs are configured on each of the VLANs with entries whose action is “capture” and “forward”.
For sensor 1 to receive traffic from VLAN 3 and 4, the port that connects to sensor 1 must be a trunk forwarding VLAN 3 and 4. Sensor 2 is configured to receive traffic from VLAN 5 and sensor 3 is configured to receive traffic from VLAN 6.
The advantage of VACL capture is that you can assign traffic from each VLAN to a different sensor, which provides granularity to the VLAN level.

just to clarify for packboozie im not saying i think myrtle is the best beach in the world but i know its a great beach and not "terrible" like you guys are saying and if its the best beach in the carolinas its plausible for someone to rank it best beach in the world since the coastline of the carolianas is viewed as some of the best in the world. smell me?

^Bobbydigital didn't do that because he "lost" the thread. lol.

And you're still missing our point. Myrtle beach in our opinion is one of the worst beaches in NC/SC. BEACHES. Different than trashy tourist destination. You could take any trashy southern city and stick a coast line next to it, and call it a Myrtle beach. There's nothing unique about the beach. It's really not even a beach anymore. Everything that makes it a beach is gone.

You're right, sadly it is the biggest tourist destination in SC. But listen people, it's South Carolina. You don't have to go any further then that to make my point. I have no trouble saying it's the most popular tourist destination in south carolina.

Fuck, the biggest tourist destination in North Carolina is CONCORD MILLS MALL. And that place is just a bunch of white trash idiots. I mean concord mills mall beat out the WHOLE FUCKING OUTER BANKS. That says very very little for the majority of people in NC/SC. It's sad, but it's true.

All the more power to you if you continue to back Myrtle beach as the numer one tourist destination in SC. It's just backing my point that the majority of people who vacation in NC/SC are idiots and would rather go to Myrtle Beach and Concord Mills Mall then a REAL vacation.

baahhh Concord is no part of Charlotte. They can live with thier Concord Mills, and Speedway and never enter the city for all i care. Hell, we should nuke the entire concord area and the average IQ of the county would raise a couple points. Ok, that was harsh, i just hate traffic in that area.

The best thing about Myrtle Beach - the House of Blues has an *excellent* bathroom to take a shit in. The stall has its own sink and everything. I saw a concert down there a couple weeks ago and missed the main act coming out because I was so comfortable in there. Second nicest bathroom EVAR (#1 is the National Gallery in London, fwiw).

^^OK you're still missing the point. There's hundreds of better beaches in the World and in the United States, but they're lesser known, and less people have been there. OF COURSE a popular beach like Myrtle Beach is going to rank number one in popularity. It's because more idiots go there than anywhere else. Oh and who really votes on yahoo polls anyway? Probably the only people who vote are rednecks in SC who love Myrtle Beach and see a budlight ad advertising it. I'm sure that poll encompasses a very small portion of the people who go to beachs, and probably 99% of people who voted live in the lower east coast (excluding Florida). No one in thier right mind drives up to Myrtle from Florida.

You'd have to provide a statistically randomized servey ACROSS the world to judge the world's most popular beaches, and i bet Myrtle Beach wouldn't even be on the top 100, because a very small portion of people travel world wide to see Myrtle Beach and there's more travlers NOT in the United States then IN the United States. So again, Myrtle Beach probably wouldn't top the list.

Just because a few thousand South Carolinians and a few golfer new englanders vote for Mytle beach DOES NOT MEAN it's the most popular in the world. You really think people not in the United States voted in that poll? HA.

which is why it was complete bullshit

i'm sure if you had an online user poll of what the best restaurant or retail store was the winners would probably be McDonald's and Walmart

The ONLY way you could have a semi accurate survey among users is to take a random sample of users from around the world. Plus you'd have to weed out inaccuracies like who votes on online polls vs who doesn't. This type of poll is COMPLETELY inaccurate like i mentioned above ^^ because the poll is probably 99% south easterners. I would bet that less than 1 percent of the poll is from anyone outside that area, and less than .1% is from people outside the United States. That IN NO WAY represents the "world's best beach."

well everything you say is speculation. based on the survey that actually happened myrtle is a great beach. yahoo is not just used by people in the us either but ok it may not be the best beach in the world bottom line is that it is a fantastic beach. There is no way a shitty beach would be voted best beach in the world by the users of one of the worlds largest sites.

"Probably the only people who vote are rednecks in SC who love Myrtle Beach and see a budlight ad advertising it. I'm sure that poll encompasses a very small portion of the people who go to beachs, and probably 99% of people who voted live in the lower east coast (excluding Florida). No one in thier right mind drives up to Myrtle from Florida.

You'd have to provide a statistically randomized servey ACROSS the world to judge the world's most popular beaches, and i bet Myrtle Beach wouldn't even be on the top 100, because a very small portion of people travel world wide to see Myrtle Beach and there's more travlers NOT in the United States then IN the United States. So again, Myrtle Beach probably wouldn't top the list."

get out of here with that shit. i'm going off hard facts and things that already have happened.

^ Oh so now you're saying your little yahoo servey is fact?? hahaha. Until you get the ACTUAL facts about that servey your argument is pointless. And my "probablys" are more like educated guesses.

^oh and stop using other peoples insults at a feeble attempt to recover any credibility you had in any of these threads.

Its FACT that most of the people on yahoo think myrtle beach is the best beach in the world. I'm being very logical here and saying that maybe doesn't make it the best in the world but it along with all the other statistics surely makes it a great enjoyable beach and the best beach in the area and at the very least one of the best in the country.

sure its a good beach and some people around here might not appreciate it as much as if we lived in a landlocked state or a cold state...but being from down here we also know that there are better beaches in the carolinas than myrtle...moral of the story is yahoo users like mcdonalds, walmart and myrtle beach

McDonalds must be the best fast food restaurant since the most people go there.

Also bud light must be the best beer since more people drink it then Sam Adams, Stella Artois, Killians, or any other beer.

poetrikster you are retarted or a troll if you seriously believe myrtle beach is really the best beach in the world
