    If you no longer wanted to be an admin in your site and quit (with someone else taking your place), would you still visit the site as a regular member? Why or why not?

    Yes, I would because in my eyes nobody can really replace me on my own community. I don't plan on selling ever because money isn't a major issue for me. And, I'd prefer to run it with my own staff members. I'm not too sure if anyone can run it as good as my staff and I can.

    Yeah I'd probably still visit. I only open sites I'm interested in the subject matter of after all.

    I'd never resign as an admin, because it's my community, and always will be. But I wouldn't stay active on a site after I sold it, because I'd be working on my next site instead.

    I know at one point I'll call it quits.....I'm just not sure what I'll do when that happens. Even though I have subscriptions, I still fund the bulk of the forum. It's a question I've thought of a lot......just still not sure.

    More than likely. There would have to be a reason for me to quick and that would likely be time restraints. It doesn't mean I wouldn't still love the niche and the community there. I just wouldn't have the time to manage it myself to the greatest potential and would feel the need to pass it on to someone who could.
