wallfish 18,240 #2 Posted 23 hours ago Most of us are Russian assets and just pretending to like American made tractors. For authenticity of an answer it's probably best coming from @Sparky or @nylyon. I'm aware of the story but short on the details. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,998 #3 Posted 23 hours ago Haha, thank you John. RedSquare was originally started by Chris as a High School project. Chris decided to make the forum about Wheel Horse tractors and choose “Forumer.com” as the free platform to build his project. When setting things up, he had to choose a color theme for the forum, and the “Red” choice was called “RedSquare”, so he picked that. Now this is speculation on my part, but because this was just a H.S. Project, Chris wasn’t going to put too much effort other than to pass and left the default logo on the forum as the theme name “RedSquare”. When I took over, I had wanted to rebrand, to just be WheelHorse Forum, so I put it to a vote. Much to my surprise, RedSquare was the members choice, so RedSquare it is. Since then RedSquare is the name brand for Wheel Horse forums, and will likely stay. 2 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EB-80/8inPA 1,871 #9 Posted 20 hours ago (edited) I thought it was because every day here is like Christmas, and green would have just been all wrong. That, or it was a Russian plot. A Russian garden plot. Edited 20 hours ago by EB-80/8inPA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
