Re: Bearchive .com down ?
Yes, it is a little unprecedented in its scope and extent. Other models have requested that no copyright images be posted, or that no new content added, or that threads specific to them be removed. But in Charms' case, it appears that it goes well into derivative works, discussions, and those things related. With the forum acting the way it is, it has been a bit difficult to see what is disappearing. There was either some legal aspects involved or someone just messed up in tinkering with the forum.
Anyway, taking Charms out of the BEA is a bit like taking peanuts out of a Snickers candy bar, it can be done, but tends to mess up the bar along the way.
I still can't think of another example of this much capitulation to a person's request.
