Well... I was wondering where everybody went and know I know.... All I can say is I'm very disapointed.  Raptor Forum was and is a great site.  That had nothing to do with who owned it.  What made it a great site was the people who posted on it.  There is only one real reason to start your own site... $$$$$$$.  I think you guys saw an opportunity and took it.  So let's not pretend that you did it for some great noble reason.  You did it because you saw how much money was being made from the banners and the VIP section and said to your self "DAMN!... ... I can do that!"

Hell... You copied it exactly... except for the color... and by the way, this black is much harder to read.  The blue and white is easy on the eyes. I know your trying to look cool and all but the black is not the way.  If it was, this is the color Windows would come in... think about it.

I know this is not going to make me a popular guy here but this need to be said.  Trust me...lot's of you guys are thinking the same thing.

The problem is now we have our people spread over 5 sites.  What you've done is make it harder to get info... all so you could make money.

GREAT JOB! I hope your proud of what you've created.  You've taken someone else idea to make money and trying to pass it off as doing it for "the greater good".  Let's just be honest.... that would be a good place to start!

The black is harder to read. But you can easily change that by clicking on "Look and Layout Preferences" within your Profile area, and selecting the layout that suits you best.

[birdog]

Thanks. I did not know that.  I'll give it a shot.   ... ... However... I'll still be spending most of my time on Raptor Forum 'cause that's where it all started.  What ever happend to loyalty?

First off. If you knew what we did you would do the same.  We didn't do this to make a profit.  We are putting anything this site makes right back into it.  So don't come on here talking smack when you have NO IDEA what is really going on.  We are even putting our own money into the site so these vip members can actually have a monthly drawing.

Second, people really like the color, thats why we went with it.

You are just here to create more drama, and we do not need that here.

Only one reason to start your own site $$$$$$?

Wrong.

Trust me, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with money. This was not created to "get rich quick". There is no get rich quick with owning a website.

Loyalty? Yeah, we all had loyalty to Dracus. When he owned the site, it was awesome! There are not hard feelings among us with Dracus, Doubt, or Maddog. We have remained in contact with each other to some extent.

Did Delta take American Airlines idea for offering low fares via the web? No. Are there similarites? Sure. We offer an alternative to other sites, plain and simple. We are a site for the people, without the corporate feel. Over the next few months, RF will have ads blasting in your face. It takes $40 to make them go away for your viewing pleasure. If you're happy with RF, by all means stay with them. We are not trying to force feed you by joining our site. If you choose to stay with the other community, do so. You won't hurt our feelings one bit.

plus uno for socal and flynbyu. 

I too like being loyal, but...what I was loyal to seemed to turn into something else. So this site was started for the people who actually ride quads and have a good sense of humor. We drown our sorrows from not being able to ride every day by at least posting about riding everyday.
Oh, and the "thong" thread is a nice bonus as well :grin_nod:

Wow. Must suck to be completely uninformed.... ?

I'm pretty sure this site was started for the exact OPPOSITE reason from making money... A lot of people prefer mom-and-pop places (as RF used to be...) as opposed to supporting a Corporate Entity (WHO EXISTS ONLY FOR PROFIT BROTHERMAN !). NO to mention, personally - I like the feel of a smaller community as Raptor Forum was about 10-12 months ago.

- I'm not giving up on RF, but I do like to spend time in both places. As I posted in a thread over on RF...I like liquor AND beer. I drink both. Same thing here. I like RF and this site. I read/post on both.

Just because you make a new friend doesn't mean you can't hang out with your old friends anymore...unless you're a 12 year old girl.

FYI...I personally like the site in Black - I haven't changed it. It's pretty easy on my eyes anyway.

As far as Copying the RF site ? Dude, have you ever been to another forum ? THEY ALL HAVE THE SAMN DAMN FORMAT more or less. Shit, my wife's scrapbooking forum looks the same damn way as Raptor Forum does.  They must have copied the Raptor site too huh ?

Dude, if you don't like it, don't come here. Just spend your time/money elsewhere. Do you walk into Burger King and bitch at them because McDonalds was selling burgers first ? No - so get over yourself, and stay in your comfort bubble.

Besides, it's not like anything is missing on RF because of this site. No info went missing, no content got erased, and there's still plenty of opinions to be given and read on there with membership ballooning out of control. Unless of course, what you're really missing is US. In which case - you're such a sweetheart, we miss you too buddy... awwwwwwww

Oh... and did I miss all these Money making banners around here that the money-grubbing-selfish-capitalistic owners of the site have put up ? Only banners I've seen have members and their rides on them. Unless I'm supposed to be sending money to Peels660 when his bike pops up at the top of my screen. I sure prefer seeing that than  an E-bay or KTM banner.

Seriously...If you're on this whole "anti-capitalistic" kick you seem to be ranting about - you're bitching on the WRONG SITE amigo. This ain't where that's going down.

Birdog, There is no money here.  If you were to calculate the amount of hours Krandall, Flynbyu, and Socal have spent on this site the versus the 14 vip memberships @ 5 dollars a piece(70 dollars total), it's hardly worth it.

I am here for the reasons stated in my first post of this thread. Period.  I spend usually 5-10 hours a day on this site, watching for folks that don't follow the rules.  I also get to bite my tounge/finger tips when I completely disagree with a topic or post, due to the fact that I have to remain neutral. 

I have zero/zip/nada income from this function.  I do it for like you said, the members, and our love for our quads.

For our members who have posted a reply on RF, thank you for being sincere in your posting and not trying to wage a war with the other guys. I would ask that it goes no further than what it has. I really didn't expect a lot of drama out of Birdog, but he assumptions are not correct.
