Yup, things are just like we left them on March 1, 2014 when we sold the other GBO to Tactical Republic. They bought two domains from us and as part of the deal were allowed a copy of the database on that date.

When Matt set this site up he used the same database they copied from our servers back then. So all passwords folks had on that date are still what those old accounts have here today.

Unlike TR Matt didn't even require you to immediately change your old password.

I'm not real sure how Vertical Scope wound up owning the site. My contact at TR sent me an e-mail one day telling me they were merging with VS, he didn't explain just what that meant. These days VS owns most of the websites folks visit.

I really don't know David but prolly so. I think they are now up to thousands of sites they own. If they do on GON whatever that is, you should be able to tell it fairly easily on the site. I'd expect there would be posts by the VS Admins like here in the admin and help area of the site.

What is GON?

Georgia online news. Please don't ban me for saying that. You did ask.
 They are a GB0 clone anyway.

I've seen GON mentioned many times but never really knew what it was and haven't ever been to that site. No biggie mentioning other sites.

The way they are buying up sites, makes one wonder if they are a really Canadian, or if they are a shadow Chinese communist group.  that's how they do things.

A few of our guys went over there once. And they were banned immediately. You can ask Pastrop about that.

     I think  GON has a show on the Outdoor channel . I only get that channel when they run free preveiws . So It will be a while before I can verify that .

I believe your a little mixed up about that one David.... I’m still a member at Woodys GON. The one that banned myself, goodshot, & powder man was a different one. I don’t remember the name though.
