    I'm not trying to cause anything, its just a question, the owner of dp = digitalpoint
    Not sure if this has been pointed out before, because if its true dayumm thats a lot of money.

    Yer i was pretty sure it was him, because it says him and he's number #1 on DP, hence usually making him the owner / admin / founder.

    Just wanted to know myself if the alligations are true XD

    Geez, do you live under a rock? That was discussed ages ago. It is him and no it was not true. The only thing he has been accused of was Ebay cookie stuffing.

    allout is right. This has been discussed long ago. digitalpoint came out and clarified that he has never purchased a site, ever. Which if I remember correctly is what the two itraders are about. I'm not sure why he doesn't just remove them to void his name of these types of things. I'm really surprised at how little he seems to care about these forums yet they still thrive.

    @ phpgator.

    Doesn't he care? I mean the site will continue thriving, but like most things if its not worked on won't it just die out?

    And my mistake for not reading up that something like this was already posted, thought it was my own little find:p, so my mistake all.

    But it really should be deleted (the two people accusing him).

    Well, I don't know. I guess I can't say for sure that he does or doesn't care. I know you can look at his posting recently and see that it is pretty much non-existent. As far as I know, he does little to no moderating. I know there was one point where soemthing failed on the server and he had to go in and fix it himself. So, I guess there is at least some element of dedication to it.

    Generally though, forums are one of those things where it takes forever to get it going. But once it's going, it can kind of take care of itself outside of a little bit of maintenance and having people who care about it moderate it.

    I'd doubt the owner of the forum would steal that much money.

    I think even if he was to put in an additional 60 hours per week to this site, it wouldnt be much bigger, if any then if he hadnt of put the 60 hours in.
