It's Clear Chowhound Lost the IP Battle, BUT

[MplsM ary]

To reiterate the title of my post, why oh WHY must you insist on your little petty love of having the chow.com domain? Surely it was chowhound.com that brought the majority of your posters and any press you get refers to Chowhound. It seems silly to have turned things upside down the way you have, IP wise. Just sayin'.

Wondering if the structure has anything to do with paid staffers vs. volunteer support. In my line of work, there is a professional battle btwn staff and volunteer perception. Implying that to volunteer for free somehow has less validity. Chowhounds volunteer...including Mods...on the CHOW side...paid?

Thoughts?
