    I first started posting on the SiP mesage board before it came to Hostboard. After it came here I posted on almost a daily basis for over a year. I have only recently come back, after my life settled down a little. I am going to miss this place greatly, but first we need to get down to business: The SiP board can not die here. If anyone has any ideas of what can be done, we need to start throwing out ideas RIGHT NOW!
    I will be here untill the end, of the board, of the series, and then untill the last person stops having something interesting to talk about.
    If this is the end I want to thank everybody who I have talked to candidly, for there understanding and openmindedness. The greatist people in the world come here and I feel privilaged to have met them.

    Well, I am sure Maida has a contingency plan, given the sheer number of places to house discussion forums.....
    Given the traffic here, it should be no problem.

    Right Maida? smile

    Bigsexy, a guy who runs a couple of other boards, is moving to www.coolboard.com . Thought you might want to consider it Terry.

    It's in the works now to try moving the board to World Famous Comics (http://www.wfcomics.com/boards/) which is where other comic folks like Jeff Smith, David Mack and Brian Michael Bendis also have boards.

    A major difference is that they have a threaded structure different from the guestbook style that we have here.

    They have a general forum for off topic posts as well.

    I'm working on it. I won't let this forum go away.

    Hang on!

    *Ahem*
    Well, maybe I jumped the gun here, it seems someone on a car board is buying Hostboard, so just ignore everything printed above.
