No it's owned by Internet Brands (INET) which is a public company. As you say, Danny sold it a few years ago.

It always amuses me that you guys continue to moderate it for nothing. You are basically working for free for a US public company. Well, maybe they pay you now, I wouldn't really know...

A smart internet company would get that a key way to drive traffic to your site is to offer free advertising to individuals. Internet Brands do, apparently realise this, because other brands they own have free advertising for individuals - for example, Acura Forums and Hummer forums, to name but two INET-owned forums, both have private classified ads. In fact, most of their forum brands do.

So I'm guessing that it's less about the forum owner, and more about the forum administration (ie the UK guys) not wanting to be arsed to set it up.
