Um.... you're on it. 
If you had in mind something other than a forum site, then some details of what you're looking for would be helpful.

No details. What's your favorite TKD or MA sites? Just curious is all.
I don't have favourites, but I do use a few. Here are some:

I used to participate in a TKD forum, but after it became nothing but spam and personal spats, I left. This is the only TKD forum that I participate in.
Beyond this, the only site I visit regularly are the Kukkiwon and Yong-In sites.

I'd like to give another vote to http://tkdtutor.com/ which I have found very useful.

Didn't realize you published so many articles. Congratulations.
The Kukkiwon Education Media Center website (http://www.taekwonedu.kr/) is very useful if you practice Kukkiwon Taekwondo or are wondering what Kukkiwon standards are for Geup and Dan grade poomsae. It also has information about a variety of Kyorugi. You'll have to register to create a username and password to use the site.

The Kukkiwon Media Centre is good, but I really wish there was more published information to be had, beyond what appears in the TKD Textbook. I'd love to see more on the philosophy of TKD, the meaning of Taegeuk and the Poomsae, and advice on teaching methodologies / current sport science thinking. I think there's really an appetite for this information among the KKW BBs.
The site seems quite focused on the 'what' and not so much on the 'how' and 'why'. At the moment I feel like there's a big picture that I'm a part of, but I'm stick in the corner behind a bush.

The Kukkiwon and WTF have published other books on these subjects, beyond the textbook. Most are written by GM Kyong Myong Lee, so if you purchase his books, you will get a flavor of the other Kukkiwon or WTF books that have been published.
For example, "Korean Traditional Martial Art: Taekwondo Philosophy and Culture" by GM Kyong Myong Lee.
