if you look at the ADMIN stats - that ID has not been used for a long
time...
I didn't bother checking all the other "admin" IDs also listed.

Yeah, I also sent it to a few of the more actives MODs as well.
I just tracked down all the forum admin & moderators
that had PM capability,
and sent them all the same general query.....

It was originally the Motionbased forums at http://forums.motionbased.com/
Motionbased was a sports tracking thing, so it focussed on the Garmin
sports devices. Then Garmin bought up Motionbased, and made it into
Garmin Connect, and they moved the forums to garmin.com.
It looks like they've not changed the forum much since then, so its
still focussed on the sports devices.
