Keeping the community together - Page 2

I remember back when I had a thread which featured a comic called The Incredible Growing Peach. I was but a wee lad and my drawing skill was terrible. Lorekeep knew this and gave the thread the boot. Fast forward 8 years later and with practice I got better. One of the reasons for my improvement was this forum

it's over 12 at least. I've been following hte process that long, and I know that I didnt get here on the first incarnation of hte site either. I'm pretty sure there was something before the Transfur days.

Dang, Transfur. Now THAT takes me back!

I missed that announcement, The Process is closing?! (tabs over.. NOOO!) Oh man, I am really bummed now. I love this place! I loved that the focus here was on The Process because that's the part I love the most. I don't know of any other board that does this or one that caters to such a wide variety of interests.

I learned to draw thanks to this board with all the silly games we played and great encouragement from so many folks.

I'm gonna miss it.

This announcement? "Process Productions will be undergoing an ownership change in the near future. This should not overwhelmingly affect normal operations. Further details will be provided as they become available..."

I hope that doesn't mean the forum is a goner.

If so, very much.

That's great news! The announcement was a full-on closure before. If Lorekeep is seeking a change of ownership instead that means it may yet stay online.

*Mimics the scene in Star Trek (2009) where the short alien Keenser, who is stuck on Delta Vega with Montgomery Scott, seems to cry after Spock trans-warp beams Kirk and Scott to the Enterprise* .......

++Update++ By the way, in my absence I happened upon the name of that .gif on RoboPengy's first post of this thread: TWINBEE.

I guess there's always the yahoo groups that all stopped getting updated two years ago....

I'm going to suggest - again - the notion of "someone" potentially seeding a vBulletin backup for an announced, limited timespan - similar to the SizeBooru tack - before the forums are officially shuttered and/or transferred. This would preserve the existing content, while potentially leaving contact info intact for anyone that wants it.

EDIT: If bandwidth is a concern, maybe limit the ratio, then let DHT and community peer requests take over once a decent saturation point is established.

Now it's going under ownership change, that's very good news

gareb_231 · 04-04-2013

As an on-and-off lurker for some time now, the (hopefully now squashed) threat of closure is a good incentive to become a proper poster. Hello - nice to meet you all!

Robopengy, thanks so much for that Twinbee Paradise GIF. Such a classic moment!
