Well, someone wouldn't buy the site and then close it.

why would anyone be upset?

the guy banned people arbitrarily, made people pay to send pm's without even notifying them, ETC. As far as I'm concerned, Brian's getting exactly what he deserves, and I hope it never comes back.

I hope it is shut down. maybe then they can start pooling their money so that I can finally be paid for my Dreams 2 performance.

I think it's disgusting that you haven't been paid for that Jazzy. Just shows the kind of person Brian is really

yep. since I'm sure he's reading this, I have to say that he says he will pay me as soon as he has the money.

if I had known I was going to spend money I didn't have anyway, I would've done NOTS, you know.

I'm waiting a few days, just to be diplomatic. But yeah, if it's really down I'm definitely going to have some things to say about it all. Here's my first thoughts, though, as a "long-term" board member who decided to "stick with it" for whatever crazy reason -
Personally I think the trouble started all the way back in January. The "smiley faces" were really cool there but he arbitrarily changed them to gray sucky ones. Many people asked him why, both in P.M. and in a thread, and he totally blew them off. Granted maybe it was a server thing, maybe it was something he couldn't control, whatever. But in my mind it was the first sign of trouble between "The Wizard" (

) and board members. It was completely disrespectful to not answer simple, polite inquiries about it. Busy? Maybe, but there's other examples.
The best way I could describe it is that he not only had developed a complete disrespect for members of his own board, he had developed a downright disdain for them - he actually, literally looked down on them.
Assuming it's true that it's permanently down - well - did he actually tell anyone he was going to do this? Or did he just immediately take it down on some arbirary day without giving anyone a real heads-up and without regard to other's feelings?
It's actually scary in a way - granted this isn't "real life" but I think this guy probably has no respect for anyone in real life either; and doesn't give one whit about people's feelings or the consequences of his actions in real life. It's hard to picture somone being this rude and uncaring towards others on the Internet and not behaving that way in real life. And if he thinks he's a fan, he's got another thing coming there also.
