    Default Congratulations to Jonah Weiland

    After 21 years, Jonah has sold CBR to Valnet, Inc.

    Jonah's been a great boss and a great steward of this site for over two decades, so we'll definitely miss him!

    Congrats, Jonah!

    Congrats, Jonah. Hope you have fun in what ever you do next. 21 years is a nice accomplishment.

    It will be interesting to see how this place changes under the new management.

    So he's completely leaving CBR behind and will no longer be involved with anything? If so, damn. I always loved the video interviews he did at conventions.

    I hope things don't change too much around here as a result.

    I hope the new owners don't follow the newsarama model and replace vbulletin with terrible forum software and then ditch the forums altogether... :/

    Nothing but cheap booze and expensive hookers for Jonah, now.
    Hope is not lost today. It is found.

    I still recall the first year when Jonah founded the prototypical CBR, then called the KINGDOM COME Message Board...in its early Internet, black and green glory.

    We blink, and it's twenty years.

    Wayback Machine doesn't have any archives of CBR from the 1990s, but here's one of the older available snapshots from 2002:

    Click here.

    Anybody have old screenshots of 1990s-era CBR?
