well, the red arrows point to a couple of things I found so far. New site and will take some time to find everything. Figured this wouldn't hurt.

Good find! This forum is built on the PHPBB software. It'll take some time to figure out the User Control Panel and quirks of the board. Especially coming from the big corporate ad filled forums we're used to.
I took a look around this morning and most of the biker forums are on the proprietary Vertical Scope software and a few others on vBulletin software. But the problems with pretty much every forum out there they're not built for their users, but by corporations to make money with ad views, clicks, and sponsors. They use members to fill their pockets.
Fuck that. RoadGlides.com is built "by members, for members". Rebels. It's in our blood.

Thanks Rob, appreciate that.
I do like the domain RoadGlides.com. Nobody had it and it was only $42 for 3 years.
The hosting/server I have to have for my business websites so I thought hell, why not start a forum for members, by members. Screw all the ads, sponsors and corporate bullshit. I really hate the way they just expected us to roll over with the artificial intelligence crap. It was the straw that broke
this camel's back.
Like they say, "go ahead and get your own Forum". Well, don't ever double dog dare me to do shit...
