I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread

I'm sure he's trying, but it's a big X Factor whether lowtax can keep his poo poo together long enough to allow legal niceties to fall into place instead of just throwing it all to poo poo in a manic fit. And it's probably not prudent for Jeff to stir any hornets nests in the meanwhile.

Have you ever dealt with attorneys? Most of them work at the speed of a geriatric ultra conservative Boomer. This is assuming Lowtax is actually done with his online/offline temper tantrums and wants to work with Jeffrey on a deal, which probably isn't true!

Tbf SA's finances are undoubtedly as hosed as its spaghetti code, and the blurry-to-the-point-of-being-nonexistent line separating them from Lowtax's personal finances probably isn't helping. I think everyone needs to strap in and realize that between those factors and LT's ongoing divorce, there is a non-zero chance that a sale will not, or cannot, happen.

Edit: and that's not even taking into account Lowtax being a spiteful, dumb, constantly intoxicated person going through a crisis. A crisis of his own making, but a crisis nonetheless.

Why not continue to update the Questions thread?

Why the complete radio silence?

Why not even a single acknowledgement that they're aware of the concerns about Reene and investigating/determining how to proceed?

None of that has anything to do with the pace the lawyers work.

i mean it's not like he can keep letting it slide and expect it to actually evaporate.

It's plausible that lowtax has all kinda hosed up bullshit blocking the transfer, but there's also rumors that jeff has done poo poo like bought a xenforo license and is ready to lead the goons thru 40 threads in the desert into the forums of milk and honey

idk well see. Lowtax must be destroyed and if the situation that allowed lowtax to do his thing isn't cleared away the unique good aspects of the forum will die, just like they'll die if everyone fractures off to ten billion offsites.

Business deals take serious time even in the best of circumstances and these are bad circumstances.

Agreed that a "no news, but we're still trying" update would go a long way.

To be honest, nobody not even Jeff really wants to come out and formally announce and delineate a bunch of changes when the entire deal still hinges on a booze and pill mixing serial liar to close. There's no secret plotting, and while most mods are still not fully checked in because at any moment you may have a lowtax demolishment, you've got mods like Roth exploring how to improve sci-fi wi-fi in a subfora appropriate way, GBS adding back Grindcore to the mod pool, and the dozen or so threads in QCS about what people want. I think this twilight of effort is where this forum is stuck at the moment.

Regarding site improvements, Jeff has said he wants all non-goon ads gone and PMs for all.

in true goon fashion I truly appreciate PMs for all 'cause it'll enable me to PM that one outstanding goon about cookies (not the lowtax kind)

Oh and also because it's a wonderful benefit that is technologically feasible, free of cost, and increases the happiness of others
