• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Rob- I highly commend you for making this as fair and logical as possible. You explained yourself and now need to let it go. I'm shocked that someone could be offended by a name like this, but I guess that's the world we live in now. This should be a fun organization and I look forward to it. Those with overly sensitive personalities, well, perhaps it's best they look elsewhere. No worries. Let's move on. Let me know how I can help. Happy to do so. I'd rather help and contribute than complain about very trivial things.
 
Your own graph shows Sonoran 31.58 and Superstion 26.32????? It was obviously the most popular name and hardly defined an area ie Superstition.I was originally interested but I must say localizing the name to the PHX area is a turnoff by a lot of us who live a long way from the PHX area.
I commend you for starting a chapter but now don,t feel that I would really be comfortable with superstition to represent the whole state per sa with a localized name representing PHX.

Well. not to :bdh:

But, I am sorry that " THIS " chapter does not seem to be able to work out for you Jack :opps:

But maybe if you are able to get ( 5 ) people together in the Tucson area you could start a " Southern Arizona " chapter :D

Here is the info page:

WOW!
Sorry about voting.
But you did say, "Hello All" :)

AJ


WoW,
I am sorry you feel that way Jack :opps:, never meant for ANYONE to FEEL like they were being excluded by what the chapter ended up being named
I said if the names came in as a TIE, that " I " would pick the name...which I did

Superstitions had ( 5 ) votes
Sonoron Desert had ( 6 ) votes

If you look PaladinLV voted for Sonoron Desert, but he is not located in Arizona

So ==> Superstitions & Sonoron Desert BOTH had ( 5 ) votes each, I picked Superstitions

Again, I am sorry...


Bob..

No Worries My Friend :cheers:
I also do not think we will have a issue with people being a member of more than one chapter, in fact Ken Miller & I had talked about it last weekend :D


BTW, How do you like your CAT bypass?
I think that will be my next " mod ", does it cut down on the HEAT quite abit??

Thanks again :-)

Well originally it was said that this was going to include everyone in AZ. (Everyone welcome) Just as I stated in post 15 (looks like this is going to be another PHX group) it has come to pass.

It Is OPEN to ANYONE statewide

The CHAPTER name CANNOT be STATEWIDE

I.E. Spyder Ryders Of America - ARIZONA Chapter


From Ken Miller, Once Again:
" Cannot be state wide because you can't service the entire state "
We use either a city, range of mountains,a regional the area for a name


Also, Ken just e-mailed me ( 08/09/2015 ) & told me this =>
There is another Arizona group that is thinking about being called Southern Arizona chapter :yikes:
So maybe things are looking up for a chapter in YOUR AREA

A name does not totally define the geographic focus of an organization. Its members do. Geesh. Sick of the whining.
:agree: Let's just ride and enjoy. What difference does it make if the name is synonymous with Tucson, or Phoenix or Sedona or Overgaard. It's a STATEWIDE group.

It's only a Phoenix group if someone chooses to view it as such. As far as I know, and based on what the others have posted, this is a state of Arizona group.
