Don't know about the rest of the IB sites but there's so little traffic on this one now that I hope they didn't pay much for it. Maybe prudent for them to sell now while it's still worth something (£10?)

i'd say its due to the impreza marque dying, the average i.q of the new owners is about 25 judging by the txt spk m8.
this is probably due to being able to buy a turdo 2000 for £1500.
so in 6 months time the latest turbo 2000 owner wont be able to tie his own shoes let alone get on a forum.

Partly this, but the rot set in before IB took over and we all know what happened with Muppets etc.

When I was searching for a webhost there were plenty advising against them like this or this. There were stories of them inflating domain name prices when they detected people searching for those names. That put me off and I went elsewhere. Let's see how long this post lasts

I wouldn't use those set of sheisters again. I set up a site with a SQL Back end No matter what security I tried it kept getting hacked. I soon fecked GoDaddy off for another provider.
