If you referring to the Viperclub.org site than you have indeed been in a coma. Been around in various forms for many years. It started out as a private site and became part of the VCA much later. I am sure someone here could give an accurate history. I believe Jay Herbert was the original creator.

No the other site with a dot com in the title, & I guess the moderator has answered my question by blanking out the original url.

It's where all the "other" people go. ...it's a no-rules website. (Well, they do have rules, but the bar is much lower.)

Personally, they should have a place to "play", but I'm not sure the common public knows they're "independant", as the name is just toooo close.

The domain name was for sale about 9 months ago, I high-bid it at $1,500, but they decided not to sell at the last minute. Go figure.

Any how, the really fun part is they like to register "our" names over there... (JDR at that site is NOT me.) I e-mailed their owner... no response. My attitude... it won't last "forever"...

In reality this "Official" and "Recognized" site doesn't like the competition. Officially this site will say something of links to sites with "****" b/c of the .com site Babes Section.

It's is over moderation and auto starring selected words out is the very reason that "the other" site has become so popular.
