One of the family, on another forum, said they're working on it, and asked everyone to be patient.

The OP was asking about the White's factory forum, no the forum on this site. The factory forum has been down for a few days.chuck said:

but it costs money to run these forums, and that is why Makers and sellers sponsor forums-to their specifications. They pay for ads everywhere, and its deductible as a
business expense--but ceased at Finds, the largest website for detectors?
They first agreed to buy and support forums here and then...........what happened? Are they in a downturn from sales?
If Whites does not continue to support their customers/users here, its their "wrath" you are feeling-- loyalty/support is a two way street. Some of the most dedicated users I know are Whites adherents
(including me--starting in the early 70's---I even dealt them.
)
I thought it was boom times for manufacturers (some relatively new) as a lot of new models are being offered. It is a very competitive business and more than tweaking
existing models is required to entice customers.
(I have not kept up with Whites in general---any new top end or more competitive low/mid range designs?)

For whatever reason there is no forum for the detectors that I listed. Do realize people researching different detectors
expect to find that info on a site such as this?
I understand for the manufacturers it’s a pay to play thing here but do
visits by the public seeking info count for anything? More hits, more value for the advertising dollar.
Remember Treasure Depot? Remember the heavy hand of the owner there?

Try among others (here): Beep & Dig, Main Comparison, Vintage & Metal Detecting Forum: ask your questions, or do a search using key words---and you can determine how far in the past to look.
Also visit NASA Tom, youtube or a google search: you will find other sites including in the UK (like Gary's) where there are many people hunting with older or brands rare here
like AKA, Nexus or others.

Nah, it really doesn't cost anything at all to run these forums. The web host service is just pennies.
