    You are aware the departure from WZ only happened because Sly told an opportunistic kvetch to fuck off and then the supposed owners suddenly began to care about the forum after years of neglect over very weak reasoning from said kvetch?

    Asking people that post on wrestling forums in the year 2023 to not be weird is like asking Daniel Bryan not to be the best wrestler of the 2010s: it's a little too late for that.

    Nonsense, I never did that. I don't even have a blog that anyone knows about or that I post to.
    >Throw a hissy fit when the WZ owners have a disagreement with you
    No one threw a hissy fit, we just created our own forum where we didn't have to worry that one day, without notice or warning, everything would be gone.
    >Sever the community by starting a competitor
    LOL...No one required anyone to be exclusive to a forum. If a handful of people going somewhere else "sever[ed] the community", then the community wasn't very numerous.
    >Barely advertise it
    Barely advertise it? I paid for the web hosting on this for years (not to mention, own the license to the forum software) and I cannot remember a single poster coming to me (aside from KB) and offering to help with any costs. How much money did you donate or request to send me in order to pay for advertising? Also, who are you?
    >Sever the community more by evidently creating a second, secret platform for discussion of your top secret crew, only dropping cryptic hints to its existence
    Rivers of cherry Kool-Aid, I tell ya.
    >Act shocked when the community dies out
    Who's shocked? No one is shocked, WZ was dying before we left. It was discussed regularly. You must not have been around much then.

    The demise of WZ is all on you, brother.
    Excuse me, I did at least much as KB, I should at least get partial credit. I also want to give a big shoutout to Uncle Sam. He knows why.


    I won't lie, posts like this make me miss the forum experience. Not enough, obviously, but a little nostalgia is always fun.

    To his credit, Norcal did offer to help with the finances when we first did this.
