Happy Birthday WheelHorseForum.com (RedSquare)

Recommended Posts

nylyon

November 14th, 2006 the original forum (whtractor.15.forumer.com) was established.  It became immediately known as RedSquare but why?

 

In 2008, whtractor.15.forumer.com was officially known as WheelHorseForum.com, although it still pointed to the old former site.  

 

Finally in 2011, WheelHorseForum became independent, meaning that the site is fully owned.

 

It's been a fantastic 7 years and there's been a lot of change, but the one thing that has remained consistent is it is the best place to come and discuss Wheel Horse tractors!

 

So... :hbd::rs: looking forward to the next 7 years!

Sorry Bob, I can't find the original layout sheet, but I do have this screenshot.

Happy birthday RS!  And thanks to all the great folks who make it happen and keep us all coming back... sometimes 30 times a day.  :grin:

 

The earliest snapshot of the forum out on the Wayback machine (http://archive.org/web/) is in July of 2008. What a change from then to now.

The original proposed name for the forum was "whtractor" and it was setup with the only "red" theme which was available.  The name of that "theme" was "redsquare" and Chris never changed the logo to the forum so it kind of stuck.  In 2008 I bought the name WheelHorseForum.com and we voted on the name of the forum.  It was overwhelming (with like 20 votes) to keep the name RedSquare!  Since RedSquare.com is already owned, we are actually unofficially RedSquare, the official name is "WheelHorseForum.com"

Happy Birthday Red Square!!! Also a BIG Thank You to those of you who helped make this idea a reality.

I discovered RS by accident. I would have never thought there was an internet forum just for wheel Horses. I thought I was the only person who loved these tractors because I did not know anyone else who had one.

It was love at first sight when I clicked on this site. :wub:

      8 years ago today, RedSquare was started.  At the time it was called "whtractor.15.forumer.com" and started with just a few members. 
       
      Happy 8 years RedSquare, things have come a long way, and really looking forward to the next 8 years!
       
      Oh, and happy 8 years Mike (Sparky), the only active member to be here since day 1!
