edit: thought you were referring to teh lame posts on the board lately since the mods went batshit crazy.
Denny, would you be willing to share the S2 google analytics? I'd love to see the actual traffic statistics.
so a forum owner decided to have all of their members leave their own forum and post here instead? sounds like a sound business model
Just spitballing here, but I'd say a great business model is to have a moderator set up a thread for two 10k+ posters to argue in OT, and then have another moderator ban them for actually arguing in that thread that was literally set up for those two posters. That's a hell of a way to treat your volume posters. Great business model!
I don't know anything about their boards, but owning a board is often just writing checks for hosting. I don't blame someone for wanting to merge with someone else to share expenses and hope that economies of scale kick in. Ed O.
