| Did our beloved KR do it? | | Yes, he has brass balls! (11) |  85% | | No, he would never abuse his power! (2) | | 15% |
Thanks for the idea, J_A |

| BN, someone made The "official" Velonation migration thread. A sticky on the Velonews forum. 7 Non-TDF spears of lancy-pants is full of righteous indignation over it. |

probably referring to the sticky thread back "there" to promote the new home over here.
It's cool and props to KR, but I've seen ballsier. |

nice on the sticky there - that's great - was a bit out of the loop
I do not miss how a couple of people - or 1 douche with multiple log-ins' F-ing up a forum. I can be a dick and confrontational sometimes, but by the beard of Zeus, not like those trolling comeguzzlingdirtybleedingbuttsluts (to steal a phrase a friend has used). |

| I don't see how it would be an abuse of power. Nelonews doesn't seem to care, they are probably just as happy. |

| i wonder if velonews has even realized what's happened yet. unlike steve, no one in an official capacity over there cared; i can remember only one time in many many years someone on the payroll posting something (other than pelkey) |

| Entheo, I was wondering the same thing. To go even further out onto a conspiracy limb....the banner ads are the revenue stream for them, the ad rates are based on 'hits' to the site, the spam registers as a 'hit' just the same as a legit poster, so why would they care? As long as the advertisers don't actually visit the site and realize they are being duped, VN continues to rake in the $$$$. Am I totally crazy for thinking this might be likely? It would sure explain a lot of the recent VN forum history. |
