Default This is Hopeless - New Alternative

Hi

This used to be a fantastic forum but it's just hopeless now and no real posting is going on, it just looks as if it's going through it's death throes which is a terrible shame

I have learned one heck of a lot from this power training forum and I want it to continue so I've just set up a fastforum specifically for people to discuss power training and associated matters. If you want to join up registration is of course free, I've never done this before and it is pretty "no frills" but it will do the job and keep the community alive if you are interested.

The address is below, takes seconds to sign up, I'll do the best I can to keep it fresh and useful. If it get's out of hand I'll ask for help!

Great idea. But that forum is a free forum from myfastforum.org. You can't install tweaks on your own and you have to use their ads. You don't know what is going to happen in the near future with it. Myfastforum.org can change there policy and turn your website in an ad show.

Last week I registered a domain name to keep this community alive. But I didn't want to sound as a spammer. Now that this forum is dead for more than 4 weeks:

It's cyclingforum.info

I hope the complete community is going to it and won't be lost. I will keep cyclingforum.info spam free. I have some tweaks to avoid spam and run it on my own dedicated webserver which is reliable and a fast webserver. Because I own and run a large medical forum with more than 250.000 unique visitors a month in the Netherlands I can maintain this forum also.

Hi

Good show, at least folk now have options should they wish to take them up which has to be better than all the endless advertisements here.
