The same thing could happen here if someone with a passion for wrestling, and a better background in IT than I have, were to approach me about selling to them. My passion and drive for it is waning and I continue because so many people tell me they use it and love it. Could it be improved? Absolutely, but that would take someone that either already knows the web technology or is willing to put in all the hours of learning required to update any of these platforms, and to maintain as the platform tech changes.
I was forced to change platforms back in 2012 when my old FrontPage platform was discontinued. I had to shift over to WordPress and what a steep learning curve that was. I don't have the time, passion or drive to do it again as I have other things in my life that I prefer doing. My passion for computers and learning IT went from the mid 80's and lasted about 20 years. I am over that now.
I continue to run this website and officiate as my way of giving back to wrestling, a sport that I love. I have lots of other activities in my life that I like to do and each year this becomes tougher and tougher to continue. If someone has the ability and desire to look at taking this over and improving it, I would love to hear from you. A serious buyer could come in, transition with me for a while, make upgrades as needed and able and then eventually own it outright. If no legitimate buyer steps up over time then I will continue to do this as a service for wrestling, until I get to the point where I am too tired to continue. At that point I would probably leave the site up for historical purposes but would stop further updating. I guess time will tell what happens to the site which has been going on for almost 30 years. Every dog has its day and then they're done. I'm not dead yet, but I will be one day.
