    Silver Stackers Facebook page is here for those that have FB and as an alternative (quicker) means by which to make contact to discuss a potential purchase: https://www.facebook.com/SilverStackers/

    You can also check out the FB page you'll hopefully update if you do decide to take over the forum.

    I've responded to a number of interested parties today, and will follow up next week again once I have some website statistics and financial numbers together.

    Please note that this is an asset sale by a business, I cannot deal with intermediaries as there's been several requests for buyers to remain anonymous even from me as the seller. It's simply not practical.

    I spoke to Ben over the weekend.

    Topics discussed were the forum sale, yes he is still intending to sell it, activating the status of a potential commercial member, and updating the status of a current long term member to act as another forum Moderator.

    This thread was started Feb 22, 2023 over 10 months ago. Tell us more about the forum sale conversation and did you ask him why he has not taken action? I myself sent him a message about the sale and never got a reply. I'm sure others have done the same, we are waiting, wondering why there is no response. Is he only able to talk to you? If so why?

    There's nothing else to add regarding the sale and no I didn't ask, he's already said it's a low priority in his busy schedule.

    No

    Come on lads, if you are serious about buying the forum send him an offer he can't refuse!

    Otherwise don't take it personally if he doesn't respond to your inquiries or lowball offers.

    Just normal business practices.

    Lowball offers are not the roadblock in this instance.

    Then what is the roadblock?

    Enlighten us poor plebs, oh great shiney one.

    If it is that he has not got the time to respond to genuine inquiries then that's poor form and he should appoint an agent to facilitate the sale
    or withdraw it from sale.

    Why don't you try to just post once without being such a knob.

    He's said and I've reiterated that the sale is a low priority for him.

    The updates provided are intended to keep members in the loop.

    You won't be posting on here any more, nor in any other thread. I'm tired of your trolling and abuse.

    "Poor form" are the majority of your rude posts.... You're in no position to dictate terms to anyone.

    None of my business but as its public thread, maybe he overstepped and he's been doing it long before few years ive been on here...but found much of he's content amusing and some articles and information informative :) he's a long term stacker and lived what he said from lil bit i know,always spoke he's mind and never if ever compromised and i respect that :cool:

    This.

    Abusing members on public threads and via private messages hardly warrants respect. As has been stated above by another member, it was "long overdue".

    Careful, it seems to be heading woke here now, truth could possibly be classed as hate speech.
