Yes and No...not a secret mod, just a "super" mod at a couple seed venue sites, but I have nothing to do with the biz, just the forums, like I've been doing for years....its no secret, never has been either!! :cool:

Not sure where the "conflict of interest" lays....??? I think I've always had a pretty open mind about the seed wars, but I am not sure about the "playing" part......wanna fill me in on your thoughts about that??

Hope all is well on yer end my friend... :tup:

Hello!

This is LemonadeJoe - new admin of Overgrow.com... You are probably very surprised that I'm writing to you... I've got your email address because you registered on CannabisWorld.com since we have put it back online.

I'm one of original authors of http://www.grower.cz" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - biggest czech growers site since 2000 (30K+ members, 800K+ posts). We have started just few months after Overgrow and were strongly inspired by our "bigger brother".

You can verify it by pinging grower.cz, overgrow.com and cannabisworld.com are currently hosted on same machine. Try online ping http://ping.eu/ping/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I was really dissapointed when things gone wrong with OG and its bust in 2006. My background is in domaining, programming and networks, so I've tried to monitor destiny of OG domains for long time. After 8 years it finally yielded its fruits (as RCMP released it) and I've bought domains in auction.

CW was not revived by black magic ;), but using archive.org (global internet archive). It was just quick idea to make it public again with original content. Unfortunately, some topics were recovered only in part and many photo attachments were missing. CannabisWorld should serve just as read-only historical archive of grow discussions.

I have more ambitious plans with OG... I'd like to rebuild site from the scratch. I don't have any connections to original OG crew (~shabang~ or ~RC~) so I don't have original forum database or source code. We have to work with what was made public after the bust - FAQs and Strainbase. Everything else has to be started from point zero (archive.org won't help us here). Few original OG members have contacted me since I acquired the domain and I count on them to help.

As you were one of the members registering on CW and shown interest in forums I just wanted to let you know. We are currently working on final customizations and will release OG soon online. It is now running in private-beta and together with friends from Grower.cz we are trying to fill forum with some initial topics.

If you were interested in helping us out with "populating" new Overgrow, please let me know. It is very much appreciated. We don't want to rush the release and we definitelly don't want to put it online empty as I think it would spoil the "surprise" moment.. I hope that with site at least partly filled we have chance to generate some momentum and get the ball rolling ;)..

New OG will be presented on fresh new and modern platform but with old school members in mind (Karma and GrowFAQs are in place and we plan to develop new Strainbase). It is my dream to see OG alive again and back in hands of mj community.

I'd love to know what you think about it...
Keep on growing, stay safe and lets overgrow the world!

- LemonadeJoe

Several folks have gotten that.

"...because you registered on CannabisWorld.com since we have put it back online."

Looks like someone trying to cash in on the OG domain. :dunno:
