For the record, I do not know Shap, good or bad, and while I have seen him at shows. Never talked to him. So I am not busting his balls on a personal level one way or the other. Frankly I am indifferent to him and Twistys.

In general, in the past, Shap has shared some tidbits I agree with. However, I do not always agree and I am not afraid to say so. I just wanted to make that clear on a personal level.

Now that said..

.... there are a lot of old timers who believe you should leave up a site like that to milk them for all they are worth. Where I sell them off when I do not want them anymore, or they are abandon, or I do not plan to update them.

Myself, I do not find it all that hard to create new profitable sites. So I do not need to milk old dead assets. I would rather sell them off while they are worth something. But I get grief all the time for that mentality.

My guess is Shapalicious is more the conventional thinking on that position, as are many others in regards to asset management.
