Oh, shit!  Some OG's coming out in this thread.

I should have chimed in sooner.  I watch the forum a lot as there's still Russian spam that pops up here pretty often and I kill it.  I've slacked on posting for a long time, but might start trying to shit talk on here again.

Now that the numbers are so low, I wonder if we can turn this back into a place where we can swear and stuff more often?  Who's got contact info for Sheep?  Would love to see if we can get away with hot chick threads and the like again.

Kurt owns it 100% IIRC, but left Sheep still in charge of running the asylum.

To be honest we would need to regain control of the site and let Kurt designate new admins. Or, like Alex once mentioned, make our own MFBS.com and tell Google advertising to fuck off so we can post whatever we want again.

There is probably something I'm missing, and this may be a bit out of order, but over the last few years:

Server crash with no backup
Forum software crash
Forum software change
Sold to Kurt@bmxunion
Another forum software crash?
No more nudity or questionable content because Google advertising

Each issue caused a pretty significant loss of traffic.

Much of this could have been prevented. Kurt has been hands-off since he bought the site. And most importantly, Sheep has been 99% MIA and only rarely popping in to fuck up things more each time. Yes I'm a bit bitter. Lol

Pretty accurate TL:DR. Remember when they said the new forum would prevent spam bots, and in turn just locked out roughly half of the active/veteran members while still allowing spam bots in? Good times.
