C2 UK Forum

[sander]

When trying to reach the Concept2.co.uk/forum forum I get redirected here and when I go directly to concept2.co.uk I get redirected to concept2.com

When I surf to therowingcompany.com I get the old Concept2 UK website but in an agressive orange color setting. When I click on Forum on that site, my firewall tells me I cannot go there because of "Malicious Sources".

What's going on?

It looks like some of the UK *** DELETE - SPAM *** peddlers are now getting shunted to this forum as a result of using the old URL There were were a few of those before, but their origins were obscure. The new ones are naming UK towns in the posts.

Couple of questions:

• Why does the forum link at the top of the http://www.concept2.co.uk/ site point to http://www.c2forum.com/ instead of http://therowingcompany.com/forum?
• What is with the *** DELETE - SPAM *** spam? Is there some huge crossover demographic between rowers and *** DELETE - SPAM *** aficionados or something? I would have assumed the usual pharma spam in a rowing forum.

• the relationship between TRC & Concept2 isn't clear.
• the *** DELETE - SPAM *** spammers turn up all over. It's to push their Google SEO rating by increasing their page rank.
