Oh, Sh....

Well, did you see the big, huge sign? We gotta go hunt for another home. Hostboard shuts down March 31.

Any suggestions? Knighty? Anyone?

I can archive again before it shuts down and we can start over somewhere else. I hate to see it end, and I hate to try to go back to Whizzer...

I will find us a new home somewhere. Hopefully just as good. Slarti, thanks for archiving any or all posts that you can. We can put em up on a page for download or something. Crap. This isn't what I wanted to happen. Well, everyone, I will start looking for a new place this very moment. Fear not! We WILL NOT SURRENDER!!!

[Slartibartfast]

Hey, you!

I've been looking myself and a bunch of them seem to be shutting down. Great.

I can wait until the last minute and archive everything, it makes sense for me to do it since I did it before and would just have to update.

Go Knighty!

These don't seem too terribly bad....they have advantages and disadvantages.

Some seem to have similar features to Hostboard, some don't. Some are just gawdawful ugly! I've seen some that are just downright offensive! *sniff*

This is sad! And I've been clicking like it's going out of style ... Oh well. You guys are champs and I'm sure we'll find a new home. If you need help looking, just holler ...

AAARRRGHH!!!!!

Goes without saying that this is really HORRIBLE news.

Everything about this place is awesome. From the absolutely perfect and awesome color scheme, to our Moderating Dream-Team, to every last one of the intelligent, talented & crazy Fuzzy-loving friends who post here.

I am NOT a happy camper... !


BAMF!

Well, look at it this way - if we go somewhere else, we'll still have the Moderating Dream-Team and I'm pretty dang sure everyone here will follow them to wherever we happen to go... So we're not losing the board - everything that makes this board special will still be here, just ready to move on to a new medium of communication.

And as a thought, if we can't find a message board system that'll work, couldn't we sorta go to a mailing list format for a while? If nothing else it could be a way to let everyone know when you do find something that'll work.
