Yeah, so Dan just put up a notice to let us know the forums are closing.
Great. I don't know what I'll do at work all day now.

Thank God. I thought I might actually have to demonstrate that I'm a web developer in some way, shape or form.

Post here instead?  *dingdingdingding* is the *right* answer Hmm - it seems strange that this announcement comes with no notice at all. Clearly there have been differences of opinions at Net Towers over this move. But no surprise to me. For a long time now it has appeared that Future have regarded the forums as something of an unwanted bast ard child of a previous regime and not in line with the corporate goal. The writing was on the wall all those years ago when they scrapped the nntp based forums because a new server would cost them a "whopping" (Rob Fenwick) £6k. Then they introduced the horrible banner ads. Then they started banning people for saying "cock". So no loss really. Much nicer here.

Yeah probably, but I invested (wasted) endless hours of my own free time (work time) on there, and it seems a shame to lose all 9000 posts of mine.
I feel like an outsider on here. But that'll change. Soon, my pretties, you'll all be mine. Mine I tells you!! Mwahahaha!

Not at all Dom - all you need is to do is don some rubber gloves, and jump into my little bath of swarfega with me. Then we'll all have shared the same initiation and my slight fetish will be sated. For now.

For now.  I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with..... ...a bath. Also, I'm going to have to get used to clicking the 'quote' button at the top of the post, rather than at the bottom. I very nearly quoted Steve's cock post and mentioned myself being "glad to see"...

I'm starting to think the Goatse was a bad idea too. Still, it's still online, and should have been closed over an hour ago. Unless they got confused between midday and midnight.

Great post Jon! I have been following the effort since you started it, and although I have understood its purpose this post does a really great job solidifying the full rationale.
