I rather think The Dean was being optimistic. Understandably...

Not mine............. I just assumed the owners of this site wouldn't take kindly to that information being made so public. Weasel pointed out that it is in the public domain anyway (at whois) although most people would never bother looking for it. I certainly wouldn't.

Anyway - the owner (Sue?) doesn't seem to have gone pink-and-purple over it, so no worries I suppose.

As you were.

why do you care? It's owned by Internet Brands - a company owned by a PE firm.

Yes it is Public Domain Information. I am 'Shaking in my Boots' here about whoever 'Sue' is? - She has certainly not stepped forward!

The quality of any forum is bound to be the sum total of the user generated posts.

On average the posts here are good. This average could be improved if the quality of users and their posts improve.

Nothing personal, but for the sake of the average quality of this site, could you please stop posting.

Many thanks for your message, however, forgive me for posting once more; but I merely asked as very simple question. "Who Owns The Website?" I received one reply to say that it was owned by 'Sue!' - I do not consider the request unreasonable.

You really are a turd. WTF has being an Automotive professional got to do with a website? It cannot be that bad, I would say its far more popular than all the others expat forums put together.

The problem with it being popular is that it attracts dickheads like you.
