Default So what's it like to own an internet forum?

So Trip, what's it really like man? You run this badass forum that is responsible for all this great discourse, that has spawned numerous friendships, helped people in hard times, and saved countless CF refugees from internet limbo.

You've got to deal with all the crap that comes from open opinion, people you disagree with, and all that. Why do you do it and what do you get out of it personally? I mean, I know what the members get out of it...but all I have to do it click on a favorite and I enjoy all the fruits of your labor without any sacrifice..

I like forums and I like arguments, that's pretty much why I did it. I also like having an owner who will consider all ideas without disappearing for weeks and never give us a straight answer. IE not sell us out to VS without even telling us. I enjoy this place as much as you guys. I appreciate you guys coming here and posting even though I am an asshat.

If admin really exists couldn't he create a ban so powerful he banned himself?

Holy fuck, I just logged in to see how things were going. I can't help feel that was directed toward me. I guess there are still hard feelings. Though, I don't remember disappearing for weeks.

Anyway, I was checking out TWF for the heck of it and see that site is dead. The ads are all over, there is no traffic and all that work I put into that site wasted. I was going to post a thread and saw this one, so I don't wanna hijack. I was kinda looking forward to coming over here and railing on VS but if y'all still think I'm a POS then fuck that.

I realize y'all will never see my side of the story and I'm at peace with that if you are, agree to disagree. I don't wanna drag up old shit. I was just wondering how things are going here, but I'll gladly sign if you want?

BTW, I did finally sell the SV for those that remember...



Glad to hear forum ownership is still satisfying for you, it is fun! Looks like you've got bitchin' place here, you've worked hard for it.
