Advertisers, they don't seem to get it.
Had another mail today offering money to buy advertising space on the forum. It actually makes me happy that someone out there is aware of our little world and existence.
Bloke a couple of weeks ago got proper stroppy when I said no to him, rambling on about all they can offer us.
No thanks. Is apparently the wrong reply. Lol.

Re: Advertisers, they don't seem to get it.
Today's mail was an offer to buy the forum itself.
As you'd expect, I didn't even entertain the mail and instantly deleted it. I would be curious to know the value, if any.
Don't worry, I got your back gang.

Re: Advertisers, they don't seem to get it.
That'd be quite funny. But in the moves we've lost a fair few groups over the years and even though we have a core now, I wouldn't like to lose it.

Re: Advertisers, they don't seem to get it.
Funny part is, they are actually a company that buys internet forums.My name is Faith Lopez and I handle acquisitions for Groupbuilder.
I reached out a few months ago about our interest in purchasing your forum and wanted to take the time to follow up. Even if you are not open to selling right now, it would still be great to make contact so I can make your acquaintance.
If you are not the best person to contact, would you please direct me to someone who is able to help me?
Best regards,
Faith Lopez

Re: Advertisers, they don't seem to get it.
a walkout of long time members, which may be exactly what they wanted. They only care about the written posts, the content that makes for the Google hits.
That sounds familiar, Ben
