+ACampbell Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Hello everyone, I wanted to take a quick moment to let you know that effective January 1st, 2012, ARC will be under new ownership. Mike Frame, aka vwmike, aka mframe, will be the new owner and administrator. I want to say thank you to everyone for making ARC the great community that it is. I greatly treasure all the relationships I have made since ARC was founded over 5 years ago, and I look forward to seeing the club grow and become even greater! Kind Regards, Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mFrame Posted December 15, 2011 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2011 I heartily agree with everyone in thanking Andrew for all the work he has done to establish this site and a place in Austin where like-minded reefers of a different kind can gather. I'm hoping to take all the good things here and build on them. I'll be having discussions with the moderators and members to talk about what we can do to make this THE goto place in central Texas for reef advice and discussions. If you have an idea or opinion on how you think something should be done then drop me a PM and let me know what you're thinking. Look for renewed commitments to meetings, frag swaps, user and sponsor participation as well as a few new wrinkles that I have up my sleeves. The store will be opening back up in January for memberships and ARC products. More announcements to be made in the new year, but I look forward to having you all along for the ride! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's scary that you have a fan base DESPITE the bicycle outfit. SCARY! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Guess this is as good a place to mention as any that I've modified my user name to "mframe" from "vwmike". In addition to no longer having to explain that the "vw" doesn't stand for Volkswagon, I think it will make communications clearer given the coming changes.

Changed the first post to reflect the new screen name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
