Looks like all the themes are finally breaking
 
Native: is decaying away
Industrial has started to sputter and die
Vbulletin 3 is still a eyeblinding white void
Munch's Oddysee weirdly still holds out
Honeybee theme..... exists

i think we are closer to the end then we have ever been, i honestly think watching the slow death is amazing. anyone remember tremulous?, it was a freeware game from like 2005 they still have a forum that is almost dead too, about 3 messages a year from about 18 people who still play the game, that said they also still have the main dev talking too so i guess that is something


ah well, to 2022 the year the forum died lasted longer then we thought it would

Only the good themes die young

I didn't even think about changing from native. I've been using it since 2008 and...actually forgot there are other themes.

Soon you won't be able to select any other.

Listen, I'm just trying to stay optimistic.

Switching to Honeybee permanently while there's still time.

Do you think it's too late to finish my necrum theme?

Varrok 03-12-2022 03:33 AM

It'd be thematically appropriate, so go for it

Nate, I'll do the theme if you want to spend the time implementing it. The masses have spoken. What do you mean it's a waste of time, you've got nothing else to do!

I wonder if I still have some of the old artwork I did for it on my ancient laptop somewhere in the loft. It was all done on Paint. It wasn't very good.

having always found Necrum one of the most beautiful video game locations since early childhood, i'd love to see it!

Good or not what matters is you made it as a goodbye to the forum

I think slogbait actually did finish a necrum theme, but it was never implemented because it's actually impossible to do now or something

Bixer 03-16-2022 08:39 AM

I've been a member here since 2007 and only today did I learn there were other themes.

Nate 03-16-2022 09:17 PM

So tempted in the last few weeks to disable all the themes other than Industrial, out of spite.

I should've expected that triple post was intentional!

Wil 04-04-2022 12:29 PM

Moved to FS&H. Just because everything is ending doesn't mean we can relax slightly.
