IMHO, I don't see them getting rid of the forum but I see them data mining with it. Watch for ads from the new owner all over every page. They will probably take over the parts sales function and instead of YT's limited parts list, we will have the full parts availability and pricing offered by All States which is probably a good thing. Unlike just buying up a parts warehouse somewhere, they are also buying a customer base that is actually underutilized by YT. I'm not sure YT has done all that effective of an effort in parts sales. Look for All States to promote sales in a more aggressive stance. As long as they don't ruin everything with these annoying popups. Right now YT just has a button at the top for parts sales and a footer at the bottom which isn't really all that visible to newbies.
IF THEY REALLY WANT TO WIN US OVER, THEN OFFER DISCOUNTS TO THE MEMBERS, ALA HARBOR FREIGHT. HINT HINT
They could offer higher discounts on a sliding scale based upon the number of posts a person has. Another Hint Hint Hint
Then offer more of a discount every time we steer a newbie to buy parts from them. I use AmazingSmile for stuff which gives a small cut to a charity. Maybe All States could do the same thing for my most favorite charity, "bc". Another Hint Hint Hint Hint
Maybe they will read the forum and realize they need to get on the ball and start producing fire crater pistons for an IH C221 and up engines. Another Hint Hint.
They could advertise "coupon codes" which about all ecommerce sites allow. A "bc" coupon code ought to be worth 25% off. Hint Hint
I see it as a positive. All States has a large presence every time I do a giggle parts search and this will give them added coverage as usually some YT posts show up as well.

Today's Featured Article - A Cautionary Tale - by Ian Minshull. In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
