    The forum is powered by vbulletin with lots of other plugins/mods/hacks. I have bought vB seo plugin, to be more friendly for search engines.
    Threads: 16,401, Posts: 92,334, Members: 39,183, Active Members: 1,715

    What's included:
    - vBulletin License
    - vB SEO License
    - phpLD License
    - Domain registered at Godaddy
    - Web Tools
    - Directory
    - Arcade

    Why am I selling:
    Family commitments (another child on the way). The site is only a shadow of what it used to be when I acquired it 4 years ago (double earnings). I have not had time to promote the site for the past year. Despite this earnings for 2012 were as follows.

    2012 Revenue:

    text-link-ads $194.50
    google adsense $102.53
    buysellads $75.00
    paypal $360.00
    TOTAL $732.03

    I haven't updated it myself so you'd be better off asking someone else about that one. The site will be provided as is.

    Quick question: Is there any specific reason why registrations are currently disabled?

    What do you use for counting the pageviews? Google analytics?

    I disabled registrations a couple of days ago as I no longer have time to manage new member approvals.
    And yes, pageviews are from Google Analytics.

    Please note that I have already received an offer of $1200. If there are no further bids to this the site will be sold in a couple of days.

    I already own the vbulletin and VBSEO. Would you be willing to sell the database and domain and then yoiu can separately sell your licenses?

    I should mention that the person who offered $1200 also did not need the licenses.

    Thanks for your time but I will pass this one. If the site was sold 6 months ago I would haved binned it. but the revenue is really poor in the last 6 months. Good luck with your sale.

    After much discussion with many members I have accepted the $1300 bid by arkant. As soon as the funds hit my bank account this auction will be officially closed.

    The guy may have done a runner. I haven't heard anything from him since or received payment. Moderators, what is the penalty for placing a false bid? The guy has no trophy points anyway - just wasting people's time.

    First bid of $1200 gets the site.
