Hi.

Edit: What does the View New Posts section look like for you? I'm assuming a lot of pages?

Oh boy. So much shit's gone down. I'll let the vets give you the scoop, though.

lol... I was thinking along the lines of ownership change, phix back and gone and back and gone and back and gone and back and gone, the Mitlov crusade, and Leif.

An ownership change? That chap Diesel no longer running the show?

He sold his soul to the devil for some cash and tootsie rolls.
herkalees
I hope it was a decent amount of cash. Is the board run by a third party? A company? Or, just some familiar folks?

Some guy out in texas (I think) by the name of Ketan, who knows absolutely nothing about cars and has run the main site into the ground, turning it from a legitimate source of good wallpapers to an ad-heavy, bad english, no quality control mess. Apparently the forums are also a disaster area if you're not logged in, fortunately if you are logged in it's about the same as it's always been. I believe the transaction was somewhere in the $90,000 range.

Some guy named Ketan who now goes under the nickname "Dieselstation". Diesel still posts regularly, he just doesn't own it. The forum itself hasn't changed with the switch, but the frontpage has gone over some makeovers. He honestly doesn't even care about us. The forums might as well be a separate site.

I can't remember what it was sold for, but it was a pretty hefty sum if i remember correctly.

Thanks. 45k? I would've sold too. It's just a website and the best part appears untouched. Win-win.
