BFC and 1sks changing hands?

[TheMartialWay]

Batman and Robin, peanut butter and jelly, Mike And Spark; these are names that just go together. I can't even imagine this place without Mike T

Mike Good luck with the path that you have chosen. It is said a lot around here but it is whole heartedly meant, Thanks for everything you have done here, you have changed the world for the better.

Spark, you are all we have left. If you bail too, I will be forced to kill you

Mike will remain on here as a moderator, so don't worry, he'll be around! As for what's happening at 1SKS, we really can't comment on this until all the paperwork is final.

Sorta like Al Haig saying "I'm in control here, in the White House, until the Vice President returns....

Hey guys, I am not going anywhere

I will still be here. Just going to change levels.

I will make a more official announcement later but this is something that is better for everyone, me included.

The deal is final and at this point I will make Spark the owner Bladeforums.

1SKS will still pay the bills around here and the banner advertisers.

I will remain on and help. Spark will be my right hand guy and I will make certain the BFC remains what it is now.

Stay Tuned! More later!

Whew, I can sleep better tonight.Spark is the new owner of Bladeforums! Congratulations
Spark!

Does this mean that 1SKS is Spark's also? I'm HAPPY Bladeforums is going to stay in the family.

The best of luck to both of you. I am glad to see you are keeping the place in the family. Spark I guess that makes you a Sr. Moderator and Proprietor. Congratulations!

Spark, do NOT accept business cards and a title in lieu of a raise. That is a bad move, and I have business cards here to prove it.

[Spark]

Until the paperwork is signed, nothing is final yet. When that time comes, an announcement will be made as to what our status is.

Ok Spark...your first official order of business. I propose a 10% raise of all moderator's salaries.

Seriously, congratulations! From what I understand of ownership, the hours get longer, the decisions get harder, and more people hate you. Again, congratulations(?) on the promotion!

It is good to see the forum "stay in the family."

Well, Spark, I guess wearing a dress, or a tutu as the case may be*, will get you places in the knife business.

Of course, having Al Gore as your boss isn't gonna be that much fun, but, you'll work it out.

* and you know that you're never gonna live that down.

Hope this is not premature but: Congrats Spark! I'm glad BF is staying "in the family". Mike, does this mean we will see you posting more in the forums? Anyway, thanks to both of you and here's hoping continued success for BF.

Best wishes to both of you. Congratulations.

Now, who do I contact when I get impatient about my 154CM E.D.C. ?

 

[RH]

Hey Ron@SOG, I say the mods deserve much more, how about a 50% raise ?!

now, let's see...50% of 0 would be....

 

[Ron Andersen]

RH,

50% of zero does sound better! (Math has never been a strong suit for me.)

Glad it is still in the family! Do you have any ideas on how this great place may change?

Let me know if I can help
