Looking For A New Owner

[scratch]

I was in contact with the owner of this website yesterday regarding it being off line. She made mention that she is ready to let it go, hopefully to somebody that will respect what Cheryl tried to do. If anybody is actually serious, you have to think that it cost a little money for things like server space, maybe a subscription to the forum software, and perhaps the services of tech support if you need it. I imagine it pays for itself with Google Ads, but it's not going to be a big money maker for a niche market. If anybody is really interested, shoot me a private message.

I hope someone takes it over.

Looks like @rod is volunteering for it, good on @rod

With the right new ownership, this website could be reasonably lucrative for someone with the know how

Not to mention that decades worth a database of information that it contains.


Hopefully she’s asking a reasonable amount considering the fact that it has been let go for several years and lost a large number of users due to the inability to even do simple things like reset passwords.

Can't we keep this thread serious, please!

Can't we keep this thread serious, please!

We probably have two serious people that would buy this place

@BadIdeaGuy

Or

@newfie

Unfortunately it's my decline for the last couple years because we have no administrator.


We have lost several regular members because of it.


Hopefully Jessica will find it in her heart to sell tit o somebody at a reasonable price to keep the legacy of what her mother had started the quarter century ago

Surprised UPS wouldn’t try to buy it and shut it down completely.

There could be others.

Financially it would not be a big investment for anybody except if they want to shut this website down permanently

 

[toonertoo]

Please stay on topic
This isn't the corner bar

You wanna be a mod?

What do they care?

 

[Thebrownblob]

What do they care?

I know at one time they definitely did. Not so sure anymore, but it would be chump change to them to get rid of the website and hold onto the right to the name. They’re petty

Somebody might want to buy it just to get all the user info then shut the place down.

Just much bigger venues for the middle after such as Facebook or Reddit or anyone else that attacks UPS.

Honestly I don't think I want this website because they can keep an eye on what they think's going on

Beyond petty now but probably too cheap to bother.

There is enough of people there to make a difference, unfortunately

UPS couldn’t care less about this place.

Very true when this website started Facebook and Twitter and things were not even around yet. Now, people post all their private information out in the open with their name attached to it. Plenty of people will get in trouble because of social media at work.

Could've gotten a lot more for it initially. Way too late now.

I’m not on any other platform. This place is just for laughs. It goes and no one hears from me anymore.
