We're continually approached by many parties who are interested in obtaining the fabulous domain name. Should we sell the site?

Just make it nice n simple for em: put NOT FOR SALE on the front page. This site is by far the coolest open ended forum site on the internet I've ever been to. With the name you can randomly get pissed off people to a site where they can actually get some sense just by saying what the fuck. Don't sell it, it's too awesome.

My personal feeling is no. I would prefer you kept it. I enjoy coming here.
But, If the business opportunity out weighs the enjoyment you get from owning it, then perhaps you should.
That’s the part only you and Jason can decide.

I don't think the new management could ever live up to you guys...

But MaxPower said it best. You've just got to weigh your options.

Depends on how much. If its high 6 figures Oh hell yah. It all depends on what they offer. It's just a msg board man if people want to make you rich off it then I say WTF why not?

Your really missing the point. I like the site and I hope it doesn't go away but these people who want to buy WTF most likely aren't going to keep the same format. They think that the common name will make them money. So if Brit et. al. sell the site your msg board goes bye bye. And like I said for enough money my soul is for sale as is everybody else here.

Yes you would. some one offers you enough money you'd fuck a goat. I imagine that this offer is less then 6 figures so it all depends how much the owner of this site wants the cash. Be realistic, though this board is entertaining when somebody is offering you a bag of cash how much do you think about a bunch of teenage smacktards and their feelings?
