So I figure since Dave's isn't allowing new registrations anymore, those of us that have accounts are holding something fairly valuable. Hence, I'm thinking of auctioning off my account. What do you think I can get for it?

The only flaw in this plan I can see is that the only people who could post on this thread bidding for it or pm you to make you an offer are people who by definition already have an account.

So it's kinda like you're selling ice to eskimos. We're all stocked up here.

I'm selling my soul, my sense of dignity, and my good name. I prefer payment in canned food and shotgun shells.

It's true, my friend already in Korea tried to sign up and got a message that no new accounts were being created.

MODS: What's the problem?

I have a feeling the mods would step in an ax the account.

When did they stop allowing registration?

This must have been their great idea for tackling the porn problem. If so, give us or pic privileges back, and our sigs, and our post counter (why were they gotten rid of anyway?)

It's sad to see, but they're doing it at the expense of their future growth. Crying or Very sad

Could it maybe, possibly be a precursor to some actual upgrading done around here?

one problem: your account is tied to an email through which you can change the password and get the account back. You'd have to include the email account with the sale, so the buyer could protect their investment.
