No, I haven't that I know of. But when I moved my ring off WebRIng and started using RingLink, I deleted my ring on WebRing and they would not delete it.  They just removed me from being a manager of it.  They may own "WebRing", but do I not own my own ring, itself?  Now tehre are 2 copies of my ring. I deleted the WebRing one to avoid confusion, but now there is confusion because now I can't een manage it in order to change it's namew to something null and remove all members from the actual old ring, etc.
 
I don't like how they play... They get big, they get bad. :(
