Hello, fellow Venomaniacs!
You've probably noticed in the past few months a gradual slowdown in comic review and monthly preview posts, as well as a cessation of other post types on our site.
The inconvenient truth is that the original leadership of The Venom Site — names like Jason, Orion, Aaron, Tyler, etc. — have each in our own turn reached a point in our lives where we are moving on. We are all still passionate about our favorite symbiotes and some of us will continue with our individual community projects that you've come to know and love, but our adult lives have taken precedence and we no longer have the time or passion to continue administrating or contributing to the main website.
A couple months ago, a call went out on our Discord server in search of a new ownership and team of dedicated fans interested in continuing our legacy for the next generation. To our dismay, the response has been lackluster. We had one longtime member of our community initially express interest, but like the rest of us, they eventually had to bow out from consideration given other priorities in their life.
So this is the final opportunity for any dedicated Venomaniacs who would like to assume ownership and management of the main website and the TVS domain. This is your opportunity to shape the future of our little fansite and foster our community, attracting a new generation of fellow fans.
If you would like to throw in your hat for the role, please email us at god.host@thevenomsite.com. One (1) applicant will be responsible for accepting ownership of the domain, its annual registration fee of $21.99 USD, and moderation of the TVS Blogger platform.
If multiple applicants are interested in becoming contributors to the site, there is an opportunity to build a content team available as well. But right now, our main priority is to find a new site owner, so please only apply if you are prepared to accept ownership.
This offer will remain open until October 31st, 2024. If no one assumes ownership of the site by then, we will unfortunately need to wave goodbye to the main TVS website and will sunset the platform on November 1st, 2024.
It has been a pleasure geeking out with all of you for over the past decade! If this should be The Venom Site's last dance, then let us go out swinging!
Yours truly,
Orion, a.k.a. Opie_Dokie (formerly OrionSTARB0Y)
