Robert doesn't own this site anymore, he passed it off to a few mates of his overseas almost two years ago. I would think someone from piperanddrummer.com would have the scoop on that! lol But seriously, why are you preaching this place should close? From what I know of Voy the space is free, why close if its free? Who cares? I check in quite infrequently, but I wanted to let you know that preaching to Robert is not going to work. He is long gone and hopefully piping his days and nights away.

P.S. Let's not forget though, this place may be dead/dying but it was THE FIRST moderated forum, and paved the way for the others we enjoy today.
