I feel really bad for those guys.  They're in the same situation we all were -->  knowing they've been bought, getting all the VS doublespeak and just waiting to see what was going to happen.  Their admin, Stew, is the same VS handler we ended up with after we chased off Jim.  ;D  

When the switch gets thrown (which will happen slowly if VS has learned anything), they're in trouble.  Poor sv dudes.

"anesthetically pleasing." At least he's honest.

It would be interesting to watch and see if they actually learned anything in the aftermath of the DML demise.

Yes, apparently they are not allowing any deletion of old posts/threads and no editing after a month. [roll]

A few of the NYMMC regulars and I started a little moto-non-denominational forum of our own last month.  One of them (Cru Jones from here) was a player on SVRider and opened up our forum to the refugees from the VS assimilation.  Everything we all went through - loss of PM's and thread editing, the loss of our "lifetime" memberships, etc., seems to have hit the pace hard.   MANY good feelings have been flushed.  Damned shame.

We did double our membership last week, though [thumbsup]

Oh yeah,
