Why would anyone wish to delete something they posted?
Thinking ahead, RF.

i can think of three reasons right off the top: item sold/no longer available, event cancelled, "i didn't really mean to say that".

I'll have to admit.....when I first saw it, for some reason it reminded me of new born baby boy.

The posts I am interested in deleteing are in the for sale thread. If something sells or I don't want to sell it, why not?

ah, shoot Runnlo.......
I was kinda thinking that the lack of any response to his rant said it all.
BTW, I think the web site is fine.

Na Wayne, that wasn’t a rant. It’s the truth. The old site had a beautiful setting, it was easy on the eye. I mean someone took a lot of time to make it look the way it did. I can’t remember being on any forum that looked that good. I never stated anything about the working of the site. I’m sure Kevin and his associates worked their tails off making this change happen and I’m sure the site works great. We now have four shades of blue to navigate on. If you find it acceptable? Than more power to ya. Don’t beat me up over it. To each his own, Bob

This is your idea of a new site! What happened to the old sight that had cooling colors, character and some charisma? This is nothing more than a run of the mill network piece of ****. I’m afraid to see what the main site looks like. Bob L

Bill : Thank you for your response & an area for memebers to discuss local events is nice, but if someone who is not a member & does not know how to navigate the site or just wants a quick look see at any events or meets That the local chapters are hosting will be missed, Most folks will find the main web page look under events & not see any local meets, ( Brookfield, Hebron ect..), This is a great way to gather interest for our club from non members as well, I don't see that this info is readily available to the general public. I think we just need to have a listing that is updated in the "EVENTS" section of the home page if for nothing else to show support for all the local chapter members that put the effort to run a local meet.
Does anyone else agree? or am I alone in this thought?

Looking good!

Website updates

A couple of updates:

Harley1: The chapter websites are still available through the Chapter Map. Clicking on a Chapter will pop up a button to e-mail the Chapter and a button to go to the website (if they have one).

450Z: What we have created for members to talk about chapter events is the new Member Stories page, where AMCA members can submit stories on any subject related to antique bikes, including these events. We migrated the stories from the old site, including the one on a local Chapter event from 2007 that you noted. We're hoping the new page will attract more interest than the old version did, and build into a place where AMCA members can share information with other members on all kinds of topics.

Thanks for the input.

On the old website no one updated the local chapter events page in fact it was last attended to in 2007. I had posted a question on this forum as to why this was & the response was that a new website was in the works & it would be addressed, well i can't find any listing for local chapter events only national events, is this an oversite (since we know that the local chapters do hold meets of their own) or does the club not care about what the local chapters do & therefore don't feel they have to advertise local chapter meets on the club website.
Thanks in advance for your response

Hi Kevin and great work from all concerned to get this fresh new Website up and running so quickly. It took me nearly an hour to explore, so there is a lot of content for members and non-members to enjoy. A few minor comments: on Join the Club the first sentence overlaps the picture. On Advertise with us, download should read downloading. On Chapters Map the Europe link does not seem to be working. Also note that Return Policy is still under construction. Please feel free to delete this post when these items are fixed. Best regards.

So far so good. Not much different then the old, but will take a little while to get use to.
I have not been able to find a way to delete old posts.
If some one can tell me how please do so.
If not, that option should be available.
