yeah, that's not really a lot of money for having a #2 rating on google for the best keywords.

What's sad is for those who can't afford to say no or bother researching the buyer, these things are common. VS takes advantage of the situation the owners of the sites are in and makes all these false promises knowing that once the takeover is complete, there's nothing the former owners can do but try to save face. What's even worse is that they make the former owners sign a non-compete agreement... Honestly, if I had the resources, I would give those jackasses at VS a run for their money just for spite. Build a server, host a dozen or so sites, and run to all the boards and quietly, privately generate interest until I had all their clientele. Yeah, I know...wishful thinking. I was thinking this week of building a forum for the ladies, but I honestly don't have the time to dedicate to it. I'm glad you guys let us squat here, thanks!

I don't think you're off at all. I mean do all of us deserve something like that? I dont know. Maybe we do, maybe we don't. But a guy like yourself who put in all the years, all the hours, the dedication....I'd cut you in somehow. I understand your position.
