I feel like if it's anything like tMB over the past few years you should probably stay away. That would be a sure fire way to completely crush this really good thing you have going here...just my opinion.

Potentially partnering with the new tMB
- Thread starter HuskerGarrett
- Start date
If it gives @cwessel76 and @Blackshirts_Win_'ships a little angst, then we should seriously consider doing it.

Cagarner. Shared it with a friend since 2005. We didn't post a ton relative to some but contributed off and on through the years. We are still over there as well
No we are on the same page profit wise. I’m not in this to make money, just want to make enough to pay for running it.
you're a good man... and thorough.
As one of the liberals on the site, I take offense to that and vote to impeach @Extreme55.
I’m going to throw up a home board forum of some type just to see what it would look like and how we could potentially branch it out

I sent this to G, but wanted to put it here too so my thoughts are public:
G - this is of course up to you, and I will continue to be on TPB and use my purchased mod powers occasionally as I do now either way.
right now, IF it were a vote, my vote would be “no”. We have a great crew here IMO, and I don’t know who sent you the inside info, but if that person is legit and will continue to share info, we honestly have everything we need.
opening this thing up to the masses opens us up to internal (and external) politics, taters, and potentially the need to have set rules and enforce them. Look, we are basically self governed here. There are virtually no rules here, yet we’ve had virtually no issues to date. Everyone, for the most part, gets along great. I’d like to keep it that way. I just feel like opening this place up to more opens up more headaches, that’s just me. Obviously you may have higher ambitions for this board, and I can certainly understand that as you own the site.
if it’s about needing to offset the costs of the site, I am happy to contribute at any time (as I said in my DM to you the other day) - just let me know where things stand once @Jim Numbers gets done running his spreadsheets.
just my 0.02.

LOL...Love ya man
All in good fun, that’s why I love this site.
Also a valid point
This is some far out stuff. I don’t even know what the hell they are talking about.Gar, obviously this is your baby and you can do whatever you want, but just so everyone knows, @shiv is either full of shit or is just in it for the tech challenge and not actually paying attention to what's being posted on his board.
A sampling:
Because they are fucking morons. If this is the shit on the other site....I strongly vote against any merge. This is what absolutely ruined TMB for me.
Ah boy.Gar, obviously this is your baby and you can do whatever you want, but just so everyone knows, @shiv is either full of shit or is just in it for the tech challenge and not actually paying attention to what's being posted on his board.
A sampling:
This stuff is totally bonkers. Goofballs I tell ya.
Nothing wrong with folks organizing to have their voice heard politically. I will condone zero organization for violence on the platform.Gar, obviously this is your baby and you can do whatever you want, but just so everyone knows, @shiv is either full of shit or is just in it for the tech challenge and not actually paying attention to what's being posted on his board.
A sampling:
Yes, it is a tech challenge for me.
But you guys don't have to believe me. Just trying to be open with everyone cause its not "us versus them" for me. If ya'll just want to grab Huskers in here tha'ts all good.
I'm not gonna work on how the forums are organized. I'm getting devs together to build something. I've got mods to moderate.
I'm out, but ya'll know where to find me. Thanks for hearing me out.
Very clearly a Q friendly site. Hardest of passes. Good luck to ya.
Also, a call to organization and violence is literally in the first post I shared (that also includes a moniker for the netizens of your site). You're full of shit.
Give it enough time and the site will eventually be shut down.
