And you have no reason to trust me and I get that. I very well aware that you can’t please everyone and some will obviously be skeptical and that’s fine. In regards to “stealing” your name, we purchased the name. If you want it back let me know and we can discuss.

Not at all. But I know no matter what I say you’re not going to change your mind. You’re entitled to your opinion and I respect that. When the site is done you’re welcome to use it or not, it’s up to you. Have a great day.

I don’t see a US registered trademark for bf4db. Maybe there’s one in EU? If you have that, maybe you could block their use of the domain name. Without it, I suspect you’re stuck watching them build something new on the old name.

I see someone has [bf1db.com](http://bf1db.com), as well.

And when will that be?  
Oh,I forgot…you’re leaving it open ended and intentionally vague.

And you are correct in your assumption.

The new BF4DB owners haven’t hidden that they are totally and completely unrelated to the original folks.

“We are not affiliated with the original BF4DB development team, staff, or volunteers in any way and the new site will not have any ties to the original”

Couldn’t be any more clear than that.

The name wasn’t stolen! It was left to languish, like the site. The name had value, and was legitimately purchased. If this is somehow a scam, it would have to fit in the category of a “long con.” If its a resource, I’m all for it. Wait and see, popcorn optional.

I hope you guys have good intentions with the domain. If so, I wish you the best of luck! I too understand the scepticism, because I have seen the strangest ways of framing, shaming and hacking attempts while “working” for the old site. But I hope for the best.  
.  
I subscribed to the mailing list, and I look forward to the next development letter.  
.  
I find it very unfortunate that the old website dissapeared so suddenly, without any official statement from the developer. I feel like the work that we, as the old BF4DB team, have put into the website, has been thrown out of the window. The way the website was running the last couple of months (downtime, promises of improvement, and even a last scream for donations), made the original intent and the work that we (the old BF4DB staff) had put into the site to shame…  
.  
I would like to thank the people with who I have had the privilege to work with, doing the very delicate job of judging stats and trying to keep the servers running our service as clean as possible. I can assure you, each of them have put their heart, soul and their precious freetime into the project, all voluntarily, without any profit.  
Thanks to the people who used our service and supported us with reports, donations and help on the BF4DB forums.
