Hey people, I know Im getting in the middle of this but I think the points are still the same and theres no sense in getting all uptight about everything.
1.I understand 100% the negative reaction towards the af migrate. ya we screwed up and the site was down for a few days but its back to the way it was... same people same look. there have been minor changes with the ads but no matter who the owner was/is that sort of thing would have always changed.... it just so happened that it was right after our mistake.
2. people leaving because of the new ownership does not make much sense to me... why where they here? because of the ads or the people in the community(I understand the bitterness towards verticalscope if thats the reason)? because ultimately the ads are the only things that we will be changing, as for everything else rob has left it up to the members in the community to make change... if at all, and I will be here to help implement any decisions.
3. myself as a member in numerous forums I have seen alot of noobs and depending on my mood I may help them or I may ignore them. for every 20 members you may see 18 noobs, 1 loser that needs to be banned and 1 member that may become an assett to the community... whatever,,,, who knows right?
Ultimately the new ownership will be benificial to the members since we have numerous people concentrating on the site at any given time and the manpower to implement any suggestions, contests, mag features, site updates, event coverage,, the list goes on.
So if you are here for offtopic or any other specific forum, go there, its the same off topic that its always been. If you feel you want to utilize any of the added features "chosen and approved by the community"... enjoy! We will not be charging people to use the site at any point. This always has been and always will be a free site for the users.
Ive stayed out of this thread for a bit because I dont really have much to say. Im somewhat in the middle of opinions and am not here to talk about what happened other than we know we are wrong. Rather I am here to recover, make ammends, and help the Admins/mods/members get the community back to normal and then get things rolling with things on the site you may have always wanted to do... updates, edits, contests, whatever. I dont know what they are, so it will be up to you to do what you want with the site and let me know what you need me to take care of.
"Aside from the ads, nothing will be changed to the site without final approval from the Administrators, who in return will have to have approval from the mods, whom have had approval from the members"
Final note for me in this thread:
Its your site, let me know what you need and lets do it.
enjoy
