Your forum is very small. Especially for one that's been around for that long. You need to advertise it more.

No, I want it to keep it non signal related.

There are a lot of manufactures, different models, practices that vary by state, mounting hardware........etc......... Same reason why there are car enthusiasts.

Only on this thread.....

I'm hoping there will be a new traffic signal forum years down the line that I can join. A fresh start. I joined group chats on social media with people who also used the forum I got banned from, which lead to a lot of that drama, big mistake. I will be sticking to forums from now on, keeping...

I probably will rejoin the signal community years later if there's a new forum that's not managed by the same people who are running the one I got banned from. The fact that my forum shared a lot of users with the one I got banned from is what lead to the drama that caused me to shut down my...

I think it's just bad timing. Aaroads is a road themed forum and it has thousands of people on it, it's been around the longest out of all the transportation themed forums online. It doesn't focus on traffic signals, it's more highway and road themed: https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php...

How much do you think opening the forum to the public will help my site? The rival forum is more about traffic signal hobbyists. I want my forum to have more people in the profession. (Signal Techs, Civil Engineers, Manufacturers).
