Well, indeed, they seem to have a larger and also more controlled group of moderators, so I assume that's directly linked to the quality.
However... 
Apolyton
It's so homy and cuddly,
you might even think of it as home,
while you stroll around,
the halls of the OTF,
looking for threads to spam.
Under the surveilance of Ming,
we spam crap to get Deity,
as we all want to be that,
despite we know,
it's not what we want.
My home away from home,
that is Apolyton.
I'm bad at any poetry, but count it as bad modern English poetry by me. 
* Rasbelin runs into the lurking corner.

hrm, hrm, a quick word on the infamous 'newbie patrol':
I am the one Willem is talking about in the first place.
- I created the newbie questions thread, got mod approval and got it 'stickied' and at the beginning I was the one who gave most of the answers. Meanwhile, things have changed and a LOT of experienced players do the 'helping along'.
- I re-did the FAQ thread (and continue to update it and keep it in shape and up to date). Many posters have taken to pointing interesting and helpfull stuff out to me; even TF PMs me once he sees something worth ading. That way, the entire Civ3 community at CFC contributes effectively to the FAQ
- both these things were done to help newbies and people with questions
- I hope it is understandable that I (and all others) do NOT want to spend their time re-checking and re-typing stuff that HAS BEEN PAINFULLY COLLECTED AND ORGANIZED before.
- None of us minds newcomers who are overwhelmed by the sheer size of CFC and post 'noob threads'. We do mind people who know better, but are too lazy to care.
- A mod became involved because I was fed up with people calling others names just because they directed newbies to the best and fastest source of info that I closed the FAQ and asked TF to make a statement on the sites policy. I did this to avoid having posters get into a flamewr that only hurts CFC and all its posters. Noone got told off for directing a newbie to info by a mod - ever!
- no newbie got told off for asking by anyone, ever!
- even people who really should have known better were never treated impolitely as far as I have seen. The tone might get a bit less then heartily friendly when someone posts 13(!) noob threads within 2 hours, but even then people were told: 'Check the FAQ thread' - is that so bad?
so please everyone, we are neither here nor at CFC to start bashing the other place.
Quit it!
even Willem and I have come to terms after a 'noob thread guideline' was posted.

Don't forget CGN, Gamecatcher and All Civ. They have an audience too.
