Converting? Huh? Why?

When is "Ironworksforum.com" changing over to "Escapeforums.com"? And why did Z only get 45,000 instead of 2 billion? And why did the logo on this website change from "Ironworks Forum" to "Escape Forums", and then change back again? Huh? I'm confused.......

I believe it's two Million, Willard.

Two Billion to buy the rights for a website name? You've got to be joking.

And I think if I ever got one billion (fat chance), I'd happily share it with all of you.

Heck, which single human being could possibly ever need so much money??

3.8 Million dollars, which was never a realistic figure but fun to throw around. Then 45K, which was a lot more realistic. Now, 7K to compesate Z for the invonvinience of that "management switch".

I would swear off ever buying a M$ product again, but I already have. This does not include the M$ games division, who are actualy quite good. Although not much cop when it comes to keeping there word evidently.
