I didn't tell anyone and Did not want to tell anyone but for the past few days I've been discussing a deal with someone over MSN regarding the sale of the forum. He has offered me a deal of $10,000 which is way more than most other offers and I just couldn't refuse this deal.
I have not really profited from the forum because of unknown reasons. And whatever income that comes goes back out into advertising and bills. I have paid at least a $100 out of my own pocket just last month to keep the site running.
Even though we are growing, I believe it is time to let go. I have owned the forum for over a year and a half and we have come very far. I will try to visit now and then.
Good Bye My Friends! I will still be on AIM for anyone that wants to cyber slap me for a stupid mistake, but I've already signed the contract.
By the way....APRIL FOOLS! Forum is NOT for Sale. :radar:

lol haha - i was going to do this last year too but last april fools fell on a Sunday and i had a job so I wasn't home all day, got home at night when the day was almost over so it wasn't fun - i waited a whole year for this moment!
but last year at work i had a lot of fun - i manipulated the entire student work force there lol, and they figured it out just before we left
everybody thought some group was planning a prank on the other and etc. and I was acting as if I am giving this single group all the information needed so they can avoid getting pranked - but also did that for the other group lol
fun

Meh. As soon as I saw the title I knew it was an April Fools joke.

wish i had rad the first post first.
10k for a forum does sound a bit ludacris
:laugh:
Seriously tho, in hindesight, who would buy a forum website for 10k??? I mean.. who would buy someone elses forum for any amount of cash when it would be so much cheaper to just create your own.

not really, i know someone (not know him personally but previous business associate) that sold his domain for over $50,000 - it was extremely developed - it was a technology forum, had a few hundred thousand members and a tens of millions of posts - i haven't been on it for years but if i remember the url i'll post it lol

it's cheaper to build it but the developing part is time consuming and can end up costing you a hell of a lot more
LiNuX you bastard. lol

I almost fell out of my chair when I read that you sold the forum for $10,000!!!!
Who would anyone want to buy this forum at that price, I thought!
Anyway, I am still interested in buying this forum but at a much lower price. If you ever want to sell, you know who to contact.
Thanks

When I saw it on the front page I never belived it. I don't belive someone would offer you 10,000 for a forum.... I don't think forums are worth that much.

a well developed one is worth more than that lol, trust me - i gave an example a few posts ago, just look for that -
that was a while ago and this is now, don't know the real market rates but I have gotten offers that are worth mid $x,xxx
