WPdesigner.com going down the Drain?

If you are a WordPress enthusiast and have been following the latest news, you will know that Small Potato (Wpdesigner.com) recently sold his blog for $65,000 to some Polish guy called Pawel Ciszewski. It is really amazing that the blog was sold for that much money even when it was not earning any substantial revenue. But anyway, I feel that SP (Small Potato) has made a wrong choice by selecting someone who is not related to the WordPress field and the blog is in jeopardy now. I guess SP was in a hurry to pack his bags for his tours.
There has been no news posted since March 28, 2008 on the blog which is making the blog readers impatient and many have already unsubscribed from the blog. Pawel who is the new owner, promised the blog readers that he is hunting for theme designers and other staff who will run the blog. But its very ironical that there has been no update after that point. According to some readers’ research, Pawel Ciszewski runs some online casino sites. So, this really shows how much he will care about the reputed blog which was taken to a high level by SP. But SP, shame on you… your baby is dying out there and no one really cares.
If you read the history of Blog Oh! Blog, you will know that I purchased this blog from Bob (the previous owner) for $10,000 and have managed to take the blog to the next level. I do not have any shame admitting the fact that I bought this blog for earning money but hey, I never ceased to make good themes or write useful stuff for the readers (which is clearly appreciated by the community). Blog Oh! Blog is very close to my heart and if I ever sell (not likely though), I will not let it go into the hands of any Tom, Dick or Harry..I promise that much to you all
Let me know what you think…



































True, WPdesign sucks .. I’ve given up..
Hi,
Investing on an already made blog is something to be made with great consideration. As in any investment.
One must have the capability to inovate through great articles and campaigns.
The competition is getting tougher all the time and I hope that quality will be the winner.
Kind regards,
José
Hi Jai. I’m not going to criticize SP for selling his blog. That’s his business. But it is indeed a shame to see what has become of it. I paid a visit today. Spam is starting to fill the comments. It’s starting to leak into the forum. The place looks like a graveyard.
As for you and BlogOhBlog I can’t make any comparison since I never visited when Bob had it but I do like the way you are running the show. You’re doing a great job here.
@Andy : Hey Andy, thanks for the nice comments
And how long is Powel going to stick with the site?
He is all into gambling business, everyone knows that. And he aint here to SERVE the community in any way. His main focus would be to raise the cost of this site, one way or the other and then sell it when he finds the right buyer and make a good profit, may be within 6 months or at the most an year. Take my word on this. He will also try to get the traffic to his casino sites
Just my opinion.
Andy.
Although I haven’t been into wordpress for too long like some of you guys here, but one thing for sure, when Bob handed over BlogOhBlog to Jai, he made sure that he got the BEST man in this industry to handle the site. Its always nice to visit BlogOhBlog to see all the good wok Jai is doing to help the wordpress community. I wish I could be even 50% as good as he is lol. But I’m a programming noob.
I’m least bothered about WPDesigner.com as I get whatever I need, right here.
Thanks Jai, you rock man!

Small Potato won’t care so much as long as he get the money.
