Doesn't look the same to me.  There's ads everywhere, and it's busy.  The old DML (before Jeff sold out) was pretty cleanly laid out.

It's the VS 'new' look still.  Maybe you saw a cached version.  Sad but true the old DML as we knew is it not coming back.

Battle?  There's really no battle unfortunately.  VS owns it and can do what they want

I managed to log into the dml site, and the only thing different i noticed from yesterday is the absence of the Auto-Ad posted after the first post on a topic.  I guess it only appears for non-members.

I was just over there looking for some old email addresses and it seems they've decided to make me a "Premium" member.  It seems to have turned off the ads that were springing up all over the place.  (Sorry VS...too little , too late for this guy)    :Smiley

I think they did that for the old titanium members, but I could be wrong.

Same thing happened to me - I had just the plain-Jane membership over there.  I posted a farewell to the DML.  It got deleted.  I posted a message asking them to delete my membership.  Ads disappeared.  Turns out, delete is Canadian for upgrade.
There was a another post over there about the pre-VS board having 20k members, which got me to wondering if their ad revenue is based on the amount registered users.

I actually saw the same thing at one stage - board reverted to the 'old' look. Had me wondering...

A regular membership here is worth way more than a premium membership on TOB.

i never understood the disbelief that there were that many users registered at TOB.
