I personally like being able to interact with Vendors on here. The concept works well. I like this better than having ads randomly insertted between posts in all the threads like some other forums do. (Sorry if this is a little off topic...)

With regard to the coral names, if they're not trademarked, then I don't care. They're nice looking legal corals. The whole issue looks like sour grapes to me.

I was looking forward to purchasing quite a few in the future

I like seeing offers from vendors. If the vendors go away, I usually just forget about them. I try to buy from vendors that support this BB.

I hope that they reconsider leaving.

Just so everyone knows, please remember that I am no longer affiliated with Oceanic Corals on a business or Vendor standpoint but still retain my original member name....

Just don't want to confuse anyone with my comments or opinions as they are purely from my standpoint only and not necessarily the opinion of Paul....

Sorry to hear you guys go, but as with all business, advertisement is "out of sight, out of mind", so hopefully you make the right decision to target your specific customer segment.
