Your first thousand followers should not be too long in showing up.

I agree 100%. I paid for lifetime and was pissed enough when they tried to move people to iHub and get us to pay again to remove the ads. I won't use that site but to check a few lightly followed stock boards every few months that don't have a board here.

The real value of SI is the long-time regular posters with a history here that can be searched and all the eyeballs we bring. If you drive away the top regulars... little value is left.

I remember before they let people like GZ moderate and ban pesky posters, I set up boards for GZ on other sites that had the feature and people came.

Lets hope the new owner is not a bozo who blows a good thing....

I shared the same concerns from day one. The new owner will monetize this site to the best of his abilities.. I would.

So, plan b looks to be prudent.

Sure hate to see SI members broken up and find new homes in various irc rooms and other sites..

Time will tell.
