It's probably better to keep my mouth shut, but:

I found the irony in this too amusing to ignore.

It is not ironie but sarcasm... my level of language is not very high... we call this "dislexia"... sometimes, words are misplaced to express the opposite of the mean...

Well I thought you wanted to be paid.

Maybe I'm not very smart.

speculations are fun.. we can say anything, the future will give reason for one of these ideas....

Or, put another way. Say enough things often enough, some are bound to become true

shit no, i'm far from being asking for a pay somewhere... lol

it is far from what i was talking about....

ok, read the title: Jelsoft is Sold, but not me... lol

at the opposite of wanting to be paid for my presence here, i'm more interested in the living of vb.org than my own... actually, my presence here is more for supporting my actual clients than for my own sake... i have my own company (actually, have more than one, but related to vb. i have the one in my siggy.).. and my living is no way related to vbulletin.. i could have buy Jelsoft myself long time ago just for the way the agregation was done.. lol

i'm not sold to the idea.

i think vb.org deserves more than just the aside part... there is no evidence here or there that this site will survive a long time.

just this ... exactly... the more we speculate, the more one of us will have the truth.. lol
(and be credited for it!)

just curious... was jelsoft for sale a long time ago? and if so, how much was it at that time?

no, i don't think Jelsoft was for sale in any moment... actually it was about negociating for a value... long time ago they had a lower value, easier to buy.. lol

I don't like the acquisition much. But this is mainly because the there is no clarity in the change in business model.
Internet Brands (IB) looks like a management only company, all owned sites are still more or less in depended. IB in turn is part of Idealab which operates on a similar scheme.
So I can only assume that Jelsoft can still operate in the same manor and have a larger company to back them up when needed.
For example this might give Jelsoft the power to do acquisitions on their own.

I must be totally stupid then, i would have put money on it, to me it sounded like
you wanted something out of your contribution to this community, it didnt sound like
you was after rep points either....

Yep, i stick by my 1st opinion, i must be stupid or lol
