Yes a lifetime...what is a lifetime...? I can agree with you on this, if some new takes over, they should atleast look into your membership and just NOT only turn it back into nothing. Old owners and new owners must look true what they sell and buy. And for me I believe the new owen(s) should give the lifetime or something really close to it back to those members... I like you write about this.. its interesting to see what people meen. Again I am not 100% shore what is the correct way of doing this...but atleast have a dialog when take over a site... special with those lifetime big timers.
