Helloooo

Is anyone still here?

Does Alcar know he’s still paying for this?

What happened to ANN NEELY?

I expect it'll take about a week for anyone else to respond, the rate this forum moves...

People are still around, but since nothing is happening about OW we're all on discord.
Alcar is still paying for this site.
Who's Ann Neely?

OWF is still on my favourites tab, and I still check here at least a few times a week, even though there's nothing going on. I'm too much of an old man for this newfangled Discord business.

Alcar messaged me like a week or so ago, so he does know he's still paying for it. But it turns out that our provider is going to be pushing a server update soon that's going to kill vBulletin 3 for good. So that's fun.

He said in a few weeks, a few weeks ago. This is Peter we're talking about.

Will the forum just cease to exist? Or will it remain in some sort of archived form?

Not in any viewable way.

Have you tried to load OWF on Wayback? Because of the way the forum produces links (with POST variables rather than sub-urls) it mostly doesn't back threads up.

That'll be a sad day. It's had a good run though, outlasted many others of its kind.

Damn. That fucking sucks, I thought this place would be here right up until the end of the world.

I think it came pretty fucking close, to be fair.

I thought the Native/Industrial theme argument would be here right up until the end of the world as well, but it will also be banished to irrelevance.

I was native all the way, but jumped ship to Industrial in the ARG years. (Friendly reminder that that publicity chain started over 4 years ago lol)

Definitely wasn't expecting to meander in to hear about its imminent demise. I guess its position in my bookmarks bar will finally be able to be filled with something else.

If I recall correctly the issue's been no longer having the credentials to run the required upkeep? Would be happy to try and work with y'all on preserving it if it were at all feasible, but que sera sera, right?

Nah, Alcar's still got the credentials. But neither he nor me nor anyone else has the motivation to put in the work to transfer to new forum software for a forum that's not getting any posts anyway.
