Yoursite.nu Vs. Rev.iew.me
We all know that I never really jump into the for-front of drama, because most of the time I just find it repetitive insults and lulz. Good to read, but rarely fun to engage in. We, also, all know that when Jem and Jacky released rev.iew.me, that there would be tension between yoursite.nu and it. Simply because they both have the same functionality and target market.
Unfortunately, it turns out yoursite.nu simply cannot take the competition. From my understanding, a few members from rev.iew.me plugged the new site on yoursite.nu’s tagboard to simply let members know that a new, better option was available to them. Better? Yes, mainly because when the website was bought and passed over to ‘Frank’, the website was left to deteriorate and become a haven for spam websites, messages and very poorly written reviews.
This plugging of the new website, resulted in the tag-board being removed entirely from the website due to ’spamming’, and both Jacky and Jem’s accounts being removed from the website. Pathetic right?
To further test their childish behaviour, both I and Naco posted on the YS.nu forums plugging the new websites, to find in 4 minutes of posting, the threads deleted along with our accounts. With some further registration to the website and chatting with the owner, we were told we were spamming, though all we did was post 1 message plugging a new website.
As a posted on Snark, it just shows that YS.nu cannot handle competition. If the website was not left to crumble as it was, Jem would have never been put into the position of having to create a similar site. Now that it has been published, you would now think that YS.nu would take this as an opportunity to better there website, and keep the users they can from transferring across. But no. They have to delete every reference and pretend like it doesn’t exist, in hope that its users do not find out about it!
Yoursite.nu: Stop acting like a bunch of 12 years, and act your age. As I recall, Frank was 36 years old when he took over the website. 36! Pathetic. Let the drama continue.
Edit: It seems that YS.nu has been taken over within the last week, and he was deleting what he deemed as ’spam’. Seems he bought a site with bad-reputation at a bad time. Poor him.
