Good that the change of ownership will be to current members. With that in mind, this should be pretty seemless.

Not really... Internet Brands is a very large company. They own the majority of automotive forums. It's not like that Robb guy bought it w/ his own cash. Internet Brands bought S2KI as an investment.

But Robb has deep ties to s2ki which will hopefully give a little bit more pull towards this site, compared to others. Atleast now there is major funding available towards this site, giving it the power to do anything really.
