Well, at least it looks like he put some time into building the board, but $135 US?

Gotta love the entrepreneurial spirit.

When do you think we'll see SSBBSS creds in someone's .sig?

Not so funny imho. I truly hope noone is serious and pays this unknown entity for basically what amounts to is a string of chars that anyone can claim or make up.

But.. I see at least 5 [and familiar] aliases that have actually paid? Sad.

And.. what's so secret about a secret society that lists its suckers/people?

Yet, the "founder" or site registrant is unknown. Who is collecting the money?
