Petition for FreeSpeech to buy TRSHady (details inside)

Postby FreeSpeech » Mar 1st, '12, 22:56

I've sent TR some emails, shit's in the works.
This is purely business, I intend to make a nice profit, IDGAF about having control over the day-to-day actions on the site. Meaning, I'm not gonna go ban people or anything personal. Most/all admin and mods will stay the same.

Basically, post here to show support for me gaining control, I'm not sure how willing he is to sell it. I've proposed paying a good deal, so this is dead serious.

Some functional changes that may be made are here:
viewtopic.php?f=29&t=142818

Other bigger organizational changes are:
-Change site name to TRMusic, make it broader than an Eminem forum, though he will still have his own section. It will still have a focus on hiphop. All traffic to trshady.com will be redirected so it won't be an issue.
-Revamp the overall design and make TR look current and cleaner. And not so dark and 2005.
-Run an advertising program, which will bring in revenue and allow for nicer features for the site
-Have a blog section replace the homepage, similar to Rap Radar.
-Build an artist feature that will allow TR musicians to build a profile instead of just making threads, kind of similar to reverb nation. TR artists will be featured on the front page, giving them publicity. They will be able to upload songs, mixtapes, music vids, etc. Eventually, I hope to partner with sites like Rap Radar and 2dopeboyz and get (good) TR artists blog features.
-Run an advertising program via Facebook to get traffic back up

Lemme know what you all think.

It will be better, trust me. He's been largely hands off and does it as a hobby. I'll run it as a business, it'll be way nicer.

How you like the changes I'll make?

I am keeping the TR name out of respect, plus it's become a brand of sorts.

TR has said before he will not sell TRshady. Its not about the money.

Also, he said that this forum will forever be a main Eminem forum.

haha nah, and I'm not gonna allow DL links here. It may be a pain, but it will add legitimacy to the site.

Then FreeSpeech should just make a site like how he wanted TRMusic because it seems like it would be awesome.

I hope this site will always be an Eminem forum.
