Not actively, but he's fairly apathetic. In my books doing that on such timescale such as this (and having been provided with a reasonably detailed summary of the grievances for both the core members and the moderators alike) whilst still choosing to do nothing is reasonably dickish. I'd probably agree, ultimately.

I don't have much problem with disclosing what we discussed with Devastator (given how long ago it was and how this has played out exactly as expected), but offers were made to help with the more core administration (one can lock down the admin control panel to allow certain things but not others). The conclusion was basically 'buy the site from me or shut up'.

Snip

That's ridiculous, simple as lol
I can understand that over time people give up on things, and stop being active, but to basically hold the site with an attitude of "buy it, or shut it" is just... well, its definitely not a community friendly approach.
All we are literally asking is for 1 guy to have admin rights so he can implement changes while Dev is away, regardless of who it is, the site needs someone (Trying to avoid song references about needing a hero-i mean er... definitely no song references...).
Ah well, all we can do is continue to post and hope for the best. Can't exactly revolt and overthrow someone who won't even read the messages lol

Of course it was in many more words than that, but yes.

Well how much did he want for the site? Could we not fund, as a forum, a way to purchase? As long as he isn’t being extortionate, I couldn’t see why not.

This passed my mind while I was just out driving... I mean, it's definitely possible as long as the price is ok... feels a bit silly that this is how we have to do it, but meh, it can be done.

Definitely worth seeing what his asking price would be.

Let's all ask @Devastator.

He might respond if we all tag @Devastator enough times.

..... @Devastator.

I agree, however I feel like people may argue about permissions etc more like an AGM than anything else
