I find it odd Buka is going to alissa. According to her she joined the main forums at 8/31. I mean, that has been awhile and a consistent poster but what about terryfic, me, milo, etc. There are tons that have been around much longer that I would pick as mod first (with no offense meant at all alissa, we know your great as Temp said.) I think he's doing this because he sees her as a powerful figure now, head of this forum at all. He'll probably use this opportunity to bride/persuade her to bring people back to his forum. He's hating that we left! ;D I was also asked. I wrote back to Buk a long piece about how I would support a move back to that board, but that I was likely alone in that. Now that people have their own board run by, for the people, it is unlikely they will be willing to return to a place where we have less control. If he had allowed us to moderate and work with him at the old site I feel that this mass exodus would not have happened – but we cannot unring the bell and now people have had a taste of freedom. I gave him some suggestions that he could do that might help draw people back to his site. He did not respond.

Where are these updates to the forum and site that he has spoken about? As someone else said, why dosen't he get his mates who are helping improve the site to moderate?

I notice, as I keep sneaking over there, that people are still scrabbling after clues left by t and socrmom.
Buka is truly a terrible admin. Occurs to me there's no reason why he isn't sneaking a peek in here now and again, would make sense. So I assume he's abreast of recent developments. And of course some of us have concluded that he would probably know about t and socrmom anyway.
I guess it's that he's so 'gloomy and lonely' and plagued by general can'tbebotheredness. So I was wondering if we (or hyemew) should post over there re all the fakeness? Because I'm sort of feeling sorry for people over there...

Don't feel sorry for them, I've extended an invitation to everyone to come here, if they haven't it is of their own accord.
And Buka has been her, as he told Hye he couldn't be a moderator because he was not a moderator on MY forum.
*eyeroll*

No, if they bothered to read posts they would realise the blind alleys and another forum, and he seems to like leaving false posts where they are.

Looks like Buka's made his new forum for the people in the old forum (not counting this forum): I apologize to everyone for the old, disorganized, lackluster forum. The new one is up and it's smokin'. Moderated by the FANS for the FANS. & The old forum is located..... Please, DO NOT post there. I saved it so that you all have access to your old information and hard work. There's nothing there atm. 3 online, 2 guests.... and 1 hidden(!). So appropriate somehow.

When you regisiter at the new board you get an email from milesbeckett@gmail.com Googling Miles Beckett led me here - www.shoutboy.com/artists/Same guy? Pure coincidence? Intentional misleading?

This forum turf dispute is truly bizarre. Alissa has set up an amazing board here. Too many board options is a bad thing, in my view. Terryfic, you just feel bad for Buka!
Bukanator is an interesting fellow. I assumed he doesn't update his site with the new videos immediately so it doesn't look like he's directly in cahoots with lg15 and db. Buka's writing does echo his claimed russian background. Not that he ever participates in the forum, mind you, which is very strange for a fansite.
And don't forget John Green's excellent analysis of the "Buka" name - another reference to loneliness.
