Are you looking for feedback on this new site, Lance?
If so.... here is mine. I think that creating a forum with over 100 sub-forums will prove to be a huge mistake. Look around. No one else does this because it is not necessary. If anything, it is a
nightmare to moderate and the members will not be happy with having to look in on numerous sub-forums every time they log on to the site.
I suggest that they do away with having a sub-forum for every single model ever produced by Bolens and just have a sub-forum for each category such as Large Frame, Early Models, Tube Frame
Models, Articulated Models and so forth. Undoubtedly, there is plenty of overlap of the various Tube Frame models that will interest everyone who owns one of them.
There is do a fair bit of competition from multi-brand sites that have been around for years but a dedicated site can have advantages over them because they are not run by people who are dedicated
to a single brand. Sites such as MTF, TBN or GTF exist for one purpose and that is to make money.
