    Hello,

    Url: www.webmaster-talking.com

    Description
    I own a 4 months old webmaster community with over 9500 posts! It is hosted now on a temporary server, because my last server went down. Now that my current server is not good I am about to sell this board. I did not even have a domain name for this board, I always used a subdomain but now that I had to switch servers I realised that buying a domain is a good idea! So I did buy a completely new domain name for it www.webmaster-talking.com and the whole board is for sale.

    Traffic
    This board gets low amount of traffic (under 100 uniques per day), because I have not been advertising this at all! All members have entered this board because they have heard mouth to mouth from other members. This community is not based on traffic, but on loyality.

    You get:
    • Domain name for one year registered at GoDaddy
    • MySQL database containing almost 10000 posts, lots of members, threads, etc!
    • Custom made skin (This cost $30 plus custom emotes $5 = $35)
    • vBulletin valid Owned License for 8 months (like I said the board is 4 months old)
    • Help in installating this board on your server

    I accept only PayPal payments.

    Starting bid: $100
    Bin: $210

    Happy bidding! I will not wait long to close this auction so be fast! :)

    Hi

    Can you read the text above. I have had serious server problems :( and that is the main reason to sell this. I PMed all members not to post so that it keeps runnin smoothly until I get this sold. After that we can tell our members to have fun :)

    Right, i was willing to bid on that site, but i suspect there is something else going on, asking your members to "not post" isnt the best idea when trying to sell a forum.

    Well on that shared hosting environment it is very suggested, because otherwise the whole forum would not work :(

    Seriously, the board will stop functioning if it gets too active on the current shared hosting environment.

    You can always bid the $100. Think yourself:
    - vBulletin owned license 8 months valid equals to $106.666...
    - Skin + emotes equals to $35
    - Domain equals to $8
    - Content equals to at least $50

    Let's sum those up: $199.666...

    Even without those posts/threads/members it's still more valuable than $100.

    If I could be convinced this was real, I'd buy it.

    But...didn't you trawl for people to make paid posts when this forum was at http://www.webadepts.com/ - ie, not real members?

    haha, was easy to find the trick

    check both posts:
    http://www.webadepts.com/showthread.php?t=523
    http://www.webmaster-talking.com/showthread.php?t=523

    this is a cloned forum from webadepts, so basically worth $0
    so where is the subforum you talked about????????????????

    just my thought but seems you are selling a warez database installed in a different forum
    even that, webadept looks also a dead forum (last post nov1) so probably there is another one somewhere to be the original board


    as u see, google is our friends
    http://www.google.com/search?q=Page...s=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

    bUyers: BE WA RE !!!!!!!!!!!!

    edited: @ratzilaa u have been very fast to find that too. good job !!
    @seller: removing the forum was also fast, may be you avoid bad reps ;)

    This seller has tried to sell websites in the past without showing users stat screenshots. I suspect he is trying to make a quick few $$ with every website he sells. Beware before you buy, check everything out first. Good find ht125!
