Just invented here. I just put up a forum website called “The RD Forum” There is a link in the left hand column under Companion Links. A forum is a throwback to the days when I used to offer a PHP Forum named.”TEDEX”
It operated for several years and had about 100 or more user/followers registered. Content was mostly about machine shop activities and there was 6 or 8 categories. This was before I starting writing blogs on the same topics.
The site was busy, but then started to be over-run by Mid-East and East European spammers. That took the fun out of being the webmaster and I switched to better behaved and stronger spam protection from WordPress, Joomla (this site) and Drupal CMS systems. But all the interaction disappeared.
If you would like to ask me questions or share your experience in a forum context rather than this blog, please visit, register and we will see where the RD Forum takes us.
I will create new Categories as necessary. I am considering the things in which I have an interest, but that is not a limitation. The open forum is a good start. See you there?
