That assurance is worth diddly squat. Define ' virtually free of charge'.
I'm sorry, the whole thing is very whiffy indeed.

It was kind of you to do this for your wife. I assume you have good intentions.
That said...I'm not moving again. I may possibly consider options if our current admin told us she was absolutely not interested or unable to maintain this board anymore. But to move just for the heck of it? No. And I do think you and your wife were rude and presumptuous.
I still scrapbook. I do quite a bit of looking for inspiration online. I'm fine with that not happening on this board. You are not going to recreate TwoPeas. The reason 2P was successful was largely in part because of their design team. IMHO you aren't going to touch that with a 10 foot pole. We're settling in. We're comfy. Leave it alone.

You provided your "wife's" ID on another - now defunct - messaged board, as well you know. Is she registered on THIS MB?

The server is free and domain renewal is free. I paid 9.95 for the domain up front and no more paying for the hosting/domain is necessary.

Someone asked for my wifes username, I provided it on page 1 I believe. No you provided her user name for the old two peas message board,which she hasn't been active on for at least six months not for here.

Thats what the admin was provided so if you guys are cautious I understand and I'm not asking or forcing anyone to go anywhere.. do as you please. I figured I can provide a favor at the request of my wife and do something fun for the community.

Ahhhhh, he's ducking and weaving now. I don't believe he has a wife registered here. And many, if not most, of us know that domain names are not $9.99 for life. I think he's trying to scoop up our substantial user base for other reasons ---- advertising leaps quickly to mind, but the money making potential with us is endless.

Yes, definitely turn this around on us and call us ungrateful and unappreciative if we don't run right over to your MB.

You're right, domains are not 9.99 for life.. nor did I state it was. But Arvixe.com provides a free domain for life www.arvixe.com/freedomain_webhosting.php

Do you intend to set up affiliate marketing or advertising via the new site? Basically. the new site belongs to you and you can run it whichever way you please.
I understand that your intentions may be good. If so, my apologies for being so sceptical.

An IP.Board site, eh? Will you be taking advantage of the ad placement feature?
From the Invision Power website:
"Moderation Tools
Support for super moderators (with site-wide powers), individual forum moderators and group-based moderators
New topics/posts can be queued, pending moderator approval (per-group and per-user basis)
Ability to prune topics from forums that match certain criteria, such as age
Multi-Moderation, allowing multiple moderation actions to be chained for one click access
Deleted content can be reviewed and restored in the ModeratorCP
Search by IP address to find all posts/members that match
Report Center, allowing users to report topics/posts, and moderators to review them
Members' display name history logged
Moderating Team page shows super moderators and individual forum moderators
Flag As Spammer tool, enabling instant ban of a member and deletion of all their content
Topics can be managed: merged, renamed, moved, edited, deleted, split, unapproved and pinned
Posts can be managed: edited, moved, merged, deleted and unapproved"
I have always been so impressed with the way our current admin conducted herself on the original NSBR board. She's a class act and I was comfortable signing up and sticking around when I realized she was the person who put this board together for us. She's always been very impartial, I've never seen her target anyone in any way.
I would have a very difficult time coming up with a shortlist of people I could see handling some of those "tools" from the above list. I wouldn't make that list. I still do that thing occasionally where I see someone in the distance who has bothered me and I pretend I'm squishing their head with my fingers. It's satisfying in the moment but probably a clear indication that I shouldn't be given any modicum of power over a group.
I don't know your wife at all and this seems like an attempt to profit from the original Two Peas userbase being displaced. Good luck, but no thank you.

i am a little concerned that your wife, even though she had been a Pea for 10+ years has not posted in the past 6 months an only had less than 90 post in that 10 years. That does not sound like someone that was connected to the message board over there enough to want to have her husband jump in and create a whole new board.

Admin/Queen Pea - If you are not involved with this new MB project & migration, I am happy to discuss with you the idea a filing an ICANN dispute over the domain name this guy hijacked from you.

You wait, any minute now and we will have a new member here called FOILGERLOh, yea. He's been debating creating it for at least 20 minutes, but he's concerned that the time stamp on the new ID will not satisfy us at all. We're so fickle that way.

And as someone else said, I think it's pretty rude to come here and try and draw people away. Unless Admin comes and says she endorses it for whatever reason, I'm staying put thanks.

OK here goes Hello 2Peas! So I spoke with Admin recently and offered to make a replacement board that is a bit more 'powerful' than this one. Powerful as in I have already set up the options for blog posts, galleries, etc.. So I've been diligently working on something for you guys that I hope you'd appreciate it. She did not mind that I provide you guys with a choice and if this one takes off it can be the official replacement!. So since its still early I figured you guys wouldn't be opposed to moving one final time to a permanent home! Reason I did this was my wife, long time 2Pea member asked me to do it as a favor and because I'm being fluent in webhosting as well as forum moderation I was more than willing to undertake this task! So without further adieu I present to you our new home! It is still a work in progress but I have added most of the forums requested as well as a Buy/Sell forum which seems to be wanted! I'm open to any suggestions and as I stated the message board can do pretty much anything in terms of customizing! I know this board will grow and I could certainly use some help in moderating So if you guys would be interested in moving over and signing up, we can once again make 2peas the highly popular and sometimes notorious as it once was. Welcome everyone! Edit: Forgot to mention it has the option for 'personal blogs' as well as twitter and facebook integration.. very cool!

That would be a great way to build a marketing base: emails, etc all in one tidy place.
I will wait for Queen Pea, but even then I am not onclined to move. Feels icky. Your grammar is somewhat like those bank in Nigeria e-mails. No offense intended, but it is part of my suspicion about ths.
