So is this forum going to stay on vbulletin?
Sounds like IB is really screwing themselves at the moment.

I don't get the problem Steve. Some users bucked at a price increase of a few hundred bucks and IB allegedly indirectly told them to keep their money and take their business elsewhere.
I know business owners who have told clients who whined about fees or second guessed the service they were receiving to take their business elsewhere and don't see whats different here. If I'm missing something please point it out to me. Last edited by The Dingo; 11-11-2009 at 11:47pm. |

I don't get how what you posted threatened CFOT or what you do there to be honest.
IB owns VB and CF. It's been that way for several years. They (IB) are going to make the software do what they want it to and as much as I don't want to sound like a mod and say "Like it or post elsewhere", that has pretty much been the case for a couple of years at least. It's old news. |

Joe, what ever happened to freespeech? That's BS that pewter locked your thread, CFOT has a ton of random stuff on it and I think your thread was more that appropriate. WTF?! It's ok tho, you can vent here though
Until Steve bans you |

CF is a private forum, and very much a for-profit business...nothing ado about free speech.
Anything that even remotely threatens the parent co's viability, will certainly get axed. |

Personally I don't understand why people still get upset over it, the writing has been on the wall for quite a while. CF used to be way more fun but it's different now and has been for a long time. It's pretty much a matter of post there and particpate or choose not to - but there is no point complaining about how things are today because they aren't going to change IMO. |
