You can't keep them from doing it, but you can go after them for it if they agree as a term of the sale not to.

You could sell the forum to these two gentleman and stay on as an employee who helps run the site. The buyer and his money man could call themselves the "Kings of Leon". Hmmm, that's kinda catchy, would be a cool band name.

Leon opens a new forum under a relative's name and becomes a silent consultant.

If the point is, there's always a way to be a dick and not honor your word then I get that.

i've been doing this forum for 'round a decade now and already feeling a bit
of separation anxiety with just a mention of the possibility of your selling the forum. Then I reread the posts and saw that you called the fella 'a dingbat'
so you are pushing the fella away. Whew! Thanks,Leon, for all the incredible work you do to make this forum possible. May I say without equivocation you, sir, are
no dingbat. You are Moderator par excellence, without peer.
all the best, ole friend,

Did he refer to the group as we? Please say yes.

hmmm.... a 'serious' buyer begins a negotiation with "money is no object".

sounds perfectly normal - and not anything to be cautious about.

Perfectly typcal buyout b s. Money is no object, it is the only object. Sounds to me like a couple of guys who would buy, build a case for value based on actual advertising revenue and value of cards sold thru BS&T, then sell again. This second buyer will get it in the shorts as we would all be long gone. So Leon could repurchase at pennies and rebuild. I am in, Leon

Just kidding. I like this forum, there is nothing like it anywhere

That is always my opening line when beginning a negotiation.

Being a dick wasn't my point. Joining in the momentary general joyous fantasy surrounding workaround theory posts was.
