    Default Attn: Members of IA (my last post as Admin)

    After years of spending endless hours working on this site and promoting IA it is time for me to step down...

    Don't get your hopes up I'm not leaving. I am handing over the tech work to a long time friend of ours Atif. Atif will be joining Julio and I as we embark on new adventures with the site. From here forward he will be taking over all of my duties as admin and I will be taking a nice vacation. I will still be around and Julio/I will remain in the background managing the site.

    Though I just love getting calls at 2am to unban you or calls from the cops to take down pix of naked chicks on the site... Atif will be handling all of those request. He has a strong IT background and will be transisitioning the site to the newest VB + mods. He will also be helping us on the business side and we are very glad to have his assistance. We have lots of changes coming in the near future so stay tuned

    ya he isn't nearly as lazy or bored as I am. i kinda consider IA that car you refuse to change the oil on so you just keep feeding it oil as it burns/leaks it.

    I still think Paul's name should be ADMIN. It just fits. B/c when I see "Admin" I dont think Atif.

    Oh well. I know Atif will do well, maybe he just needs to change it from "admin" to "Atif"

    Julio can tell you I've been running this bitch for a long time... most people don't even know how much I've done for this site: sales, marketing, web shit, etc. when i first joined up with Julio this site was doing like 20gb of bandwidth and now it is over 1000gb. I've busted my ass for this site time and time again taking very little in return. after i put in my time Julio and i became partners probably back in 04.

    Its been a good run and I've have lots of awesome friends/memories/connections from IA. I am by no means leaving or breaking up our partnership; I am just taking a needed extended vacation.

    IA needs new blood to keep it running course and driving the Atlanta Scene. This site is far bigger than Julio/I have ever imagined. I will enjoy sitting back having someone else do the hard work. Atif is very qualified and has lots of resources that the site will come to love. Be glad we are bringing in one of our friends and not some stranger who doesn't know shit about the scene. Atif has been around the block a few times and is good friends w/ us. We have a good group of Admins/Mods so I'm sure things will go off w/o a hitch. Plus Julio/I still control the ultimate ban stick.

    Julio can tell you I've been running this bitch for a long time... most people don't even know how much I've done for this site: sales, marketing, web shit, etc. when i first joined up with Julio this site was doing like 20gb of bandwidth and now it is over 1000gb. I've busted my ass for this site time and time again taking very little in return. after i put in my time Julio and i became partners probably back in 04.

    Its been a good run and I've have lots of awesome friends/memories/connections from IA. I am by no means leaving or breaking up our partnership; I am just taking a needed extended vacation.

    IA needs new blood to keep it running course and driving the Atlanta Scene. This site is far bigger than Julio/I have ever imagined. I will enjoy sitting back having someone else do the hard work. Atif is very qualified and has lots of resources that the site will come to love. Be glad we are bringing in one of our friends and not some stranger who doesn't know shit about the scene. Atif has been around the block a few times and is good friends w/ us. We have a good group of Admins/Mods so I'm sure things will go off w/o a hitch. Plus Julio/I still control the ultimate ban stick.
    well thats what really counts

    im sure he will do a great job as u have .
