If the OP will contact me, either as Happiegrrrl or Administrator, on Climbers Taco Salad with a direct link to the forum once it's live, I will happily make sure it's prevelantly displayed, to aid in migration.
When I read the first post from OP and it didn't gain much traction, probably as the OP wasn't "known," I thought it didn't look like it was going anywhere and that was why I made CST.
I'll stay with CTS as needed, and if it becomes obsolete in lieu of OP's forum, than that is fine by me, and I'll let CTS go when it's clearly not needed.
Agree some collaboration would be a good idea so the community doesn't get fractured.

"Wide fetish" will likely be wisely inaccessible to those who lurk from work or corporate networks. Maybe have a better work friendly aliased dns name?
Just sayin...

That's a very good point...
One that hadn't crossed my mind...

Adios Super Topo.
I, for one, am not interested in a new iteration of ST. I prefer to put my energy into something new as, with the same administrators, it will end up in the same place.
What I have seen of the Taco Salad looks promising. Even some previously banned ST members are posting there, and have not been too obnoxious as yet. Hopefully it will remain climbing oriented and we can have all the rainbows and unicorns that are lacking on WF

Geronimo!! Here ya' go! Big medicine!
We should be pretty solid here (logos and "branding" stuff is there
as a fill in and not necessarily permanent):
https://forums.redpointuniversity.com
I have provisioned things a bit on the lean side. Somewhat shot in the
dark w.r.t. resource allotment but we can scale as we go.
Terms of Service are intentionally lax. We can tighten up as need be.
Oh, yeah, I've not tuned the uploaded file sizes for images and such.
Another place where I'll monitor and adapt as I get a better feel as
to needs. Might be a couple other knobs that I'll need to tune.
Stay calm! Every little thing is going to be alright.
Have fun-- Ken >;^D

My username was to long & 🙄 My password (that matches my EMail)was to Short
The worry is will that work..
Heh... likely not, but I've never thought to test such a combo. So I just did. It does not.
Pass phrases need to be 14 characters. Cuz it is a big bad Internet out there and the forums want to keep y'all from shooting yourselves in the foot. Not to mention having an account easily cracked and abused for miscreant mischief.
Also, those who prefer Category vs. Flat views may season their default view to taste. See individual account settings.

To the OP:
Thanks for taking the initiative. I will probably check it out at some point, but right now I just have Forum drama fatigue. The Facebook group is a good holding pattern for people who already use Facebook, and there are a lot of familiar faces over there. I appreciate Happie starting the Freeforum group, but I took a look at it and don't want to sign up on yet another service that monitors and markets every keystroke I make.
The main thing I desire out of a Forum, is some kind of lighthanded moderation, so that all the kinds of posts that drove people away from this Forum, don't just reappear in an endless "Groundhog Day" nightmare of unpleasantness.

Mayhaps you might want to take a gander at the terms of service you are presented during the registration process. You will be offered the chance to cancel the registration if you disagree.
Lets see if I can post them here:
This community forum collects and processes your personal information.
We use this information strictly to personalise your experience in this community, as well as to associate the posts you make to your user account. During the registration step you were asked to provide a username and email address, you can also optionally provide additional information to complete your user profile on this website.
We retain this information for the life of your user account, and you are able to withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account. At any time you may request a copy of your contribution to this website, via your Rights & Consent page.
If you have any questions or concerns, we encourage you to reach out to this forum's administrative team.
I consent to the collection and processing of my personal information on this website.
Occasionally, we may send emails to your registered email address in order to provide updates and/or to notify you of new activity that is pertinent to you. You can customise the frequency of the community digest (including disabling it outright), as well as select which types of notifications to receive via email, via your user settings page. Unless explicitly changed in your user settings, this community does not send out email digests
I consent to receive digest and notification emails from this website.
In other words, GDPR compliant (the opt out check boxes are hidden above). But I am open to tuning them as warranted.

Note: Bold emphasis added for those still confused about the terms.

Zuckerberg lives in a palace funded in large part to taking and selling your complete identity and connections.
The guy running redpoint probably doesn't live in a fortress on Hawaii based on stolen proceeds. If he can make back the bandwidth/hw costs in ads, good for him!
