lets leave it alone for now.

be careful with copying information that its not yours from this site to another one. it may seem good, but you may not want to infringe copyright issues with coomer, him get pissed and turn the off switch. In my case i would be mad and pissed if i see my pics and how to in another website without my permission. i took my time and if it dies with this site so be it. but it was for 6gc.net


stop harassing him, or it will also mean he can flip the switch.

let the moderators handle this guys. there is no sense to have to many cooks in the kitchen. then having a sour moment.

and by the way, did coomer price the site for 10k, or just pure speculation based on what internet says.

nobody is going to fork 10k for a site that does not generate revenue.

Theres under 1.5years till the site goes down anyway, so its not TOO early to start thinking about it. The switch will be flipped either way.
The info thats on here, is by members, hardly any was by coomer himself.

And if the harassment is to GET his attention. If he chooses to flip the switch because we have been contacting him, it shows what type of person he really is.
This is only a simple thread, Moderators ARE doing as much as they can.. but it will get out of hand, and in 559 days, Bam.

Edit: Coomer was paying $4 a year for this site.

^If they continue using that IP address, thats a temp fix yes!! Smart thinking.
But i highly doubt they'd only be using 1 IP

Agreed, I'm not hosting it else where.

But to be specific, the site and design are croomers, not the posts made on the forum. There is no sign up that specifies direct property to the site owner. That is specific to the user that put it there. Just like if you posted on how to create a bomb, that is your cake to eat, not the owners. They just have to cooperate with any investigations =P

I'm simply backing up the forum side of the site, if it came to a legal issue, I would just change the design aspect out of it, and simply retain the posts. Not keeping the howto's either, majority of them are dated anyway, more wealth of knowledge is on the posts themselves.

I remember at one point he tried to sell the site once, made a post about it here. Was quite high, I just threw 10k out, but pretty sure it was very close to that.

Meh not really, people have to click them to make any money off them. Small funds at most.

awesome! mens ugg boots!

just to quell my own curiosity, but how (mods) do you go about deleting these posts?
the way I would see it is to go to their profile and find all posts by this user.

how do these things target a site? I kinda have the feeling that they have to be pointed in the right direction before spamming. .

It would be great to have a few more mods to clean these things up when some of the other mods arent online, but I guess when we get to that point, we would be able to change the security on the forum
