Well there yah go I have always been under the influence that Steve Edwards owns Fishnet, maybe he owns this other mob you are talking about and it's a sub company.

Fishnet.com.au Pty Ltd ACN 092 756 708 is the site owner and operator.

OZ could you tell me where you got your information from ? I am very interested.
Just a brief history of the site in case anyone interested.

Fishnet started as a web site in 1995, it was then called Fishinternet . I joined the group in 1996 was the 41st member to join the site, taking into account scammers ( yes even in the early days ) I was probably well within the first 20 humans to join the site.
We started off when there were no other fishing web sites in australia, yes Fishnet was the first fishing web site in OZ by 2002 after several face changes Fishnet had a major melt down and most of it's holdings were lost. All the members had to re-join I was a few days late in joining so became the 486th member, god knows how many scammers.
When we started the site it was in the TREE format which I still liked more than the current every man and dog style of forum. In or about 2004-5 we changed the site to it's current format.
Around that time we started a television show called Fishnet TV which went for approx 20 episodes on channel 10 on a Saturday, think it was 12 noon, but not a good time cause in them days I was always out fishing at that time and had to tape the show to watch when I got home, sometimes Val would forget to tape it and those episodes I missed.
Steve decided NOT to do the show since, as it took too much of his time to produce.
BTW Steve Edwards was the guy who gave REX HUNT his big break and put his face on Tele, Steve made the first 20 odd shows before REX became famous and stabbed Steve in the back and went for much bigger money and fame, Rex still visits the site, but no longer posts.
By 2005 every man and his dog was building Fishing web sites and Fishnet was just another site, by that stage we had nearly 50,000 members registered probably about 1 thousand fair dinkum members and the site started to loose much of it's charactor and members.
Since 05 thousands of members have come and gone and the registry now stands at over 73,000 members, probably about 100 or so members that still bother to post, a lot more use the actual site rather then the forums. The forums are a minor part of the site where most fishing sites are just a forum and not much else.

Well there you have it and with all my rant and rave my point is all this time I was under the impression that Steve Edwards was still the site owner, although he has handed the forum section over to the Moderators to control.

Well as far as members , we have really limited ourselfs as we require a admin approval.
Which I see as unnessary but so be it as most would complain with a few spammers and secondly Jumpy doesn't want mods .
What I might do but is put a port in front of the forum like they have so we can put some advertising and crosslinks of useful sites.
Well just a thought and maybe an upgrade to 3.2.3

[Jumpus GooDarus]

Why have mods oz ???

This is a well behaved site exept for that goose called Fed

If anyone has issues here they all know it's me & i haven't had to step in pull anybody up for ages

[oz man]

Well we don't need them unless we opened the site up.

[poly]

bugger, they have pulled the thread. Now we will never know what Jumpy had to say

I can tell you Poly, Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.........
They're on to him mate, every time he's wrong he just talks them into submission.

[Fed]

FWIW Ozman, I'm a mod on another site & we currently pull posting privileges to well over 3000 new members a year because of spamming.
At least with FOS being by invitation the forums aren't filled with crap aside from Jumpy's posts.

Oz we don't want to open up the site, it's ok as it is and if we needed any new members we could requiet a few decent blokes.

PS site still owned by Steve Edwards but run by marine media or whatever it is. Rang Steve today for comformation.
