    New to me... I haven't heard anything.

    If so, then I guarantee the reason was self-greed.

    Not that I'm leaving here, but does that mean some of the other sites are decent again?

    IMO, the only things that have changed are , 1) Ownership 2) No control.

    What most don't understand is that those "red sites" don't care about their members. Its about profit to them.

    Special membership, that you have to pay for, just to get rid of those banners. Why? Because having all those non-site related banners generate them money... clicking on them generate them money. To offset the cost they force members to pay for "Premium Membership" just to get rid of the banners.

    The outrageous vendor priced packages and many other aspects members seem to not be aware of.

    They don't flintch when it comes to banning someone. You get banned with no warning.

    Are the admins, supermods, moderators really involved with their members? Eh, not really... most (NOT ALL) are on power trips. The admins don't even participate... I've yet to see one. Hence why its not about members... its about how much profit they can make from site hits.

    i cant speak for the other forums but anyone here who is on caliberforums will tell you thats not the case there. since we got appointed mods we involved the members in pretty much any decision, it would take a lot to get me to ban a member, and instead of deleting threads that upset some members but others like we find ways to make it work for everyone. i get what your saying but atleast at our forum that isnt the case. aside from the whole issue that caused the exodus to here everyone has been pretty happy there and has returned since the problem was taken care of, which by the way the decision on how to fix that issue was partly mod choice but largely was from what the members asked us to do. i could care less of how corporate the owners of the forum are, ill get my mod privilege removed before i err on any other side than the members.
