I decided to stop by but fully expected to find the site permanently offline.

I remember when Andy the Aussie quit this forum. He showed his true nature (a pedantic and arrogant prick) by basically accusing everyone left here of expecting "special attention" from the Busse family. Well, good riddens to Andy the A******.

In my not so humble opinion, the Swamp and this forum helped the Busse brothers (and wife or whatever Amy is) build a brand and sell products.

If they are planning on retiring ... GOOD FOR THEM! I don't blame them one bit as I fully plan on retiring WELL before I turn 65. HOWEVER, I do feel like they've ignored their core customer base (that was instrumental in growing their brand).

I will never buy another Busse product (especially at their current prices and goofy BUD-K looking designs).

My recommendation is we find another forum.
