I agree with Casey. The "old place" :mad4: became a real :mad4: magnet. Anyone who enjoyed it at the end could only have been too stoned or drunk to realise what was happening.
But I would give SS the benefit of the doubt myself. I think he was being ripped off by a bunch of name droppers who gained his permission to run the site, but never really gave two hoots about it, except how much money they could make from selling merchandise etc. I would think SS pulled the plug himself as a result of the non compliance, and the late appointment of mods made things impossible to clean up. I would say those SS trusted to run the site, are no longer trusted anymore, at least, I would hope not.
Just too little too late really. Seemed to coincide with the mob thing too.
I'm sure Craig
could set up a new "official" site at SS's request, (for a nominal fee of course) at least it would be run and maintained professionally.
