@Kurt - The idea at the time was actually gaining a little bit of traction. I didn't think it would last as long as it did because of everything they were offering already being available for the most part, for free.

@Ted Clayton - Well then, it's gotta suck to be one of the paying customers, considering how things have turned out.

@Bob Wilson - I'm having a hard time processing my refund. Instead of getting refunded, I keep getting emails asking me to complete my WordPress Users Association registration, even though I've already done that. I'll update this post and the comments thread on my experience of getting a refund, if I indeed get it.
