The files are trying to be transferred to a sister site. According to one member, who just sent $400 as a donation, well he may be a little mad right now.

A domain name should cost no more than $10-$15/year. Storage costs for a discussion board can be higher, especially if the BBS hosts users' photos, rather than having posters/users host their own photos. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 268 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 268 | I'm not know of any $400 donation sent to me, Highest sent to me so far this year was $76.
Just keep in mine this has nothing to do with my wanting to shut it down, the cost of keeping the site. its all about how som epoelpe think its the main reason we can't afford to pay ALL the bills we have, I only own money on my house!!! Being out of work for 6 months had nothing to do with that I guess.
So to keep from going into the Big "D" word, and lossing every thing anyway I gave it up, you can't take what is freely given.
Now there is not really any reason for me to stay here, so one more straw and I'm out of here.... and I'm taking the CAT!!!

Reload/refresh your browser. Unless the website has been re-published/hosted since last week, it is gone (except for the copy of pages in your browser's cache).
Last week, I was telling people it was still up - I cleared my cache and it indeed was gone.
I hope you are right and it is up again.

Yes, it is now working. People on other discussion boards have reported that they were prepared to copy the files and host them. It looks like it has been accomplished.
