Bmilder to sell Entmoot.com
In this announcement, bmilder says he will sell the Entmoot message board to a current member of this board, who will remain anonymous until the deal is complete.
He mentions that the new owner has "some radical changes in store for the community." Bmilder will keep the Tolkien Trail website. What are your comments and thoughts on the new, future board ownership? What do you think the "drastic changes" will be? Personally, I hope the site retains its ties to the Tolkien Trail site. I think the drastic change might involve some minor advertising on the site like the fairly inoffensive Google text ads. After all, the new owner will probably want to cover his cost of buying the site and/or server costs. Or maybe he will invest the money for the sheer awesomeness of owning one of the greatest message boards on the internet. I hope bmilder continues to post here now and then. Now that he doesn't have to deal with board maintenance, maybe he'll have more time for mooting!

I would point out, Nurvi, that this is the last day of March, i.e. tomorrow is April 1st, i.e. April Fool's Day, and since the announcement seems to have been posted today, I'm betting this is AFD fun.

I have my suspicions as to who it might be, but I'm not telling anyone, partially because I'm probably wrong and I'll look like a fool if I told you. Hmm... I wonder when Ben decided this? Hmmm....

Quite so, my dear, quite so.
TB (O.o), it makes great sense to have a lot of moddies on, if the Grand Wool is being pulled over our eyes, methinks.

Anyway, we'll find out, but I just can't dismiss this as non-legit.

Since when have any of you ever known Ben to ever be an active participant in any of the past jokes? I have been here for a long time and seen a lot of jokes, but never have I seen Ben in any of them.

LOL @ everyone who thinks Entmoot ownership is to remain in the States.
