MyBadBits Closed, FeedBits Opened

In the past few years the site has been run and maintained by others than the original owner, and not without problems.

About 2,5years ago, after a longer period of time in which the owner had been inactive, the collected staff with aproval from the owner chose to promote one of the older Sysop`s to Co-owner,
the reason beeing that on a day to day basis we needed someone to have the final word, and make decisions here and now, as to wait for weeks for the owner to show up.

But about 2years ago we started to see the first signs that the new Co-owner didn`t have the time and energy needed, and the original Owner was nearly never around,
and for a time our Coder took on the role
as Co-owner, but the lack of interest caused the role to pass on to another Sysop.

January this year after 1.5-2years at the helm, Coder and the Sysop was loosing patience with the Owner, he was still the only one with access to the funds the users contributed with.
And the bills wasn`t payed time after time, and servers was closed cause of the lacking payments and so on, Sysop chose to leave the site(again), and since(after a long conversation with Coder
and the original owner)joining in again, this time as Co-owner, with the promise that things would change, and payments made in time.

Coder and the new Co-owner ran the site as they had done the previous years, but nothing had changed in relative to payment of the bills, servers still wasnt payed on time, and when the domain
wasnt paid in time either, it was suspended, and getting new servers and replacing the old ones became impossible.

Late April Coder wrote a message to the owner that it was once again time for server payments, and the whole staff tried to make contact with the owner, which didn`t happen untill it was too late, and the servers once again had been shut down by the provider.


Coder and Co-owner chose to deactivate the option for the users to donate to the site, since the users contributions obviesly wasnt used for what they were intended, and was the reason why payments wasnt made.

Around mid May the new Co-owner chose to leave staff, and the rest of the staff followed, leaving Coder, owner and the old Co-owner, the two last mentioned being inactive.


Through the next few days the former staff members of MBB talked.
Coder didn´t wanna run the site without staff, and the old Co-owner couldnt see a reasonable way to keep the site running.
And in the end the fu*ture was up to the last remaining active member of staff(coder), and after a few sleepless nights coder chose to pull the plug in the morning of May 14. 2013.

In the following week, the active part of the MBB staff talked about the possibility of opening a new Danish/Nordic tracker.

Between May 22, and June 3. staff and a few users worked on realizing the tracker.
And on June 4. at 6PM the site was finally open for the public.


We from MBB would like to welcome you and your friends on FeedBits.org.
