Under New Ownership

Hi Members:

I am the happy new owner of AWDforums. My name is Justin, 35/M from the San Diego area and I'm married with children. The forums have been pretty slow lately but I'm going to do my part to see things are a little more lively from now on. You'll see our ads around other AWD gathering spots trying to attract new members.

Guys, please mention AWDforums to anyone who might be interested! Let's get this place moving!

Please PM me with any questions or concerns, or post them in the proper forum.

Best wishes,
Reply With Quote

Hi, im Casey(the origional creator of AWDForums). I hope you can bring this thing around.

My main concerns are:
There is WAY WAY WAY to much adsence on this site. When I owned it I made a profit with just a couple nicely placed ads. When I left I think people left/no one new signed up because the new owner added an advertisment on every space possible which really cluttered this place up and makes it not only an eye sore, but It takes away from the real "community" aspect of the forums (instead of it seeming like somone is just owning the site for money).

LMK if you need any help

Casey, great to meet you and see that you're still here! You are absolutely right - there are too many ads. I'm going to give it a week or so to see which ones are actually getting some clicks and then start pruning out the ones that are just in the way. My main goal is going to be getting some good threads and posts. New, exciting content is what will get members posting and attract new registrations. I really hope you'll stick around!

I think we're all coming, seeing no activity, then leaving. Would sure be nice to get a little action going again, wouldn't it?

Hell yeah. I dont even know who the regs would be now. lol

What members need to do is when they do come in, POST! Go thru a few threads, update where you are at. That way other members will come in, say hello and update themselves too.
