CPF Sold - Under New Management

That’s the BLF spirit! Or at least the Convoy part of it is! :wink:

I wonder if the CPF Facebook page went with the sale ?

Someone on CPF already asked about this, and yes it did.

Is the facebook page part of the sale?

Yes, and also the Underground
I will still be around to help out with the transition and so will the other moderators and administrators.

What i found most interesting is

Does this mean this buyer pledged to be just as punitive?

I understand why you want to insult me. Its okay. I still stand by what I said being that we’re specifically talking about this forum. I’m happy that BLF has never been down for me and it loads fast. And overall this is such a great community from which I’ve learnt so much!

Apparently my attempt at humor failed. I apologize.

Back in the early 2000’s I operated a heavily modified (by me) phpBB for customer support as a side project. The PHPheads back then were completely convinced, and very vocal that Java would never get anywhere for web development because all the Java web frameworks were multi-threaded. PHP didn’t and couldn’t use threads at all, so, obviously, nobody needs threads.

I haven’t had much to do with the PHP community since then, but in 2021, with the so many of the dominant web dev frameworks being multi-threaded, doesn’t it seem just a tad Luddite to claim that a widely used, proven technology is just a buzz-word?

Anyone check cpf lately? It’s ads galore. I won’t be visiting that site anymore.

I just went there with an adblocker, and of course it looked fine.

Do those moderators get paid? Or they do it for the power?

uBlock Origin Firefox add on works wonders for removing ads, you can also choose to hide other annoying things such as Racoon City’s signature picture that takes up half the screen (haven’t seen it for years until he recently changed it)

Adblock Plus works great as well.

I was thinking about buying BLF ...but every time I get 64$ in my pocket I go buy more things off Amazon.

$11 MPOW headphones rule !!!

Your web browser has to be extremely short and wide for my signature to take up half the screen.

(I don't know why in the world you would have your browser set so short and wide.)

The built-in ad blocker on Opera is working wonders in my favor. Only two advertisement banners at the top where they aren’t a bother.

I’ve been using the mpow headphones too. Washed it in my jeans by accident one time. Still working like new.

I often think of that quote but had forgot who it came from.
But i want to know which episode its from.
One of my favourites is this one

Thought you were joking. Just turned off my adblocker and wow…ads between some replies even… Yeah no thanks

since i use Brave, i did not know what you folks are talking about.
so…with Chrome, i went to CPF. now i remember why i use Brave.

It did.

I vaguely remember that comment. :wink:

It’s been like that for years.

This Adblockers for the win!

As long as Virgil isn’t there anymore, I’m fine with the new ownership.
