woot made it.....

yeah, you were the highest (after they adjusted pwnd out of the running....) then eikki, malice and then me....

it was a good long run, and I didnt do any of the price checks you did....


I dont think its coming down soon...probably my 'when someone gets to work and does the archiving' is my bet on when its coming down.

Nice work. Congrats! I was also off here for quite awhile or I would have beat pwnd

kinda wondering if it will be the end of today....or if they have reconsidered (got some rose colored glasses for sale--only 1 owner).

anyways...it has given folks a wee bit more time to say goodbyes, which is kinda nice.

Doubt they have reconsidered sadly... But it is a lovely thought... Wonder how difficult it is to archive an entire forum of this size? Must take a lot of time to do...

Indeed, always good to get to say goodbye...

had not really thought of the length of time it would take....wonder if they are doing it and at some time the forum will just stop---and some of the last posts will be as if they never were---

yes it does.
and my sad news: my favorite restaurant closed, friends took me out for dinner last night, and there was a sign on the door ---they had closed guess thats what I get for aging, my favorite sushi place closing (my favorite chinese place changed hands...might as well have closed, not the same without the original owners).

yeah, life telling you to never get too comfortable---and the chinese calendar said this was supposed to be a good year for me....shows what they know (or perhaps my hubbys bad year is spilling over, yeah, lets blame it on him!).

and thanks (also found out that someone I consider a friend passed away on the 30th...very sad indeed).

So sorry to hear that cosy! Above all about the friend, and about the restaurant as well.

Yeah life does seem to go that way. Was just talking to a buddy I haven't seen in awhile about life... talking about the old days. Growing up sucks. lol

thanks on both points. Getting old aint no fun neither...got my aarp invite in the mail and this time I am the correct age for it (first time they sent it to me was my freshman year in college--I was 18 and the letter said "now that you have retired" I was like 'retired'? I havent even had my first job yet!)
Seems the more birthdays that pass the more friends I have to say a final goodbye to as well....it was a rather sobering (and morbid) thought I had early in the am....not the best way to start out a birthday I would have to say. dammn now I am getting depressed again....need to get this party back on track!

On most forum software there is simply a way to turn the forums on and off with the click of a mouse and a check box or drop down menu selection

It really is that easy to close us down

think the archiving is the issue (and that the software for 2 is different from ours).

As I'm not familiar with Curse and its forum management, no idea if it is that easy T1. It is probably pretty easy to just straight up wipe the site but to archive it, that probably takes a lot more.

Woo! Almost 4th of July... Yay. Freedom!

ah, a day to sleep and listen to folks trying to blow off their hands or burn down their houses....yep, wonderful day....

Though I am enjoying the lower temps a whole lot...was sooo nice to go to see the fireworks here last night and not sweat walking there and back. (will watch the ones on tv tonight )

Oh hey, we are still live here. Neat.

Lots of fireworks going off around here. Not a lot of sirens so I guess no hands got blown off, which is good.

We are getting back up to warmer temps. Possible rain over the next couple days, which would be nice.... Really nice.
