I kind of thought that....
And here's the thing......I understand the whole re-direct thing has value since I have over 150 domain names, and essentially only a single "product line." (Partly because I spend too damn much time here......)
Anyhow, how difficult would it have been to say "Ok Gonzo, we'll sell it to you, but we need a prominent ad space on that for XX months for Rude.com as part of the deal?"
Maybe I'm wrong.....but it seems to be a valuable asset wasted. But, it's not my asset, and I don't known the details, so I'll just have to assume they did what was best for them. But speaking solely as a frequent user, I would have been tickled pink to have Gonzo take over the board, and offer a hands on, sensible approach, to management and involvement of the board.
If I was trying to reach the webmaster market in a big way (with a few notable exceptions) I know where I would place my advertising dollars.
