>>If the site returns to full functionality, I wouldn't be surprised if Blue tries to implement a monthly/yearly subscription model.<<
When IV initially resumed (on Sunday I think it was), everything seemed to be the same as it had been previously. But then, several hours later when I again attempted to access Private Ideas, I was sent to a page that said that particular board was now a "premium feature," and that I would henceforth have to pay $9/ month in order to continue to access it. Initially I thought Blue was implementing a change to IV's model in an extremely ham handed fashion. But now, I think it's 50/50 that the $9 mo page was a hacker ruse attempting to obtain my credit card info. We'll find out in due course. If IV ultimately returns to be same animal as it's historically been, I'm open to staying there - - or I'll go to whichever alternate the majority may decide upon.
