I probably won't be going back after this. I didn't think Amy was all that bad at first, but to close the site for no apparent reason after an episode of drama she appears to have started is highly irresponsible.

The only young person I spotted on AFF was Some_Bloke, who's 17. Considering the circumstances, it wouldn't hurt to make an exception if he wishes to join....
Some Bloke is very mature acting young man

And never gives any problem

Let him in, IMO

Would he know to come here?

Some_Bloke was wondering why the site was turned off....

I was wondering the samething as well... I mean I only woke up about two hours ago, and he was the first person to remind me that the site was turned off.

Seriously, all this is just starting to be a real bother....

Yet why cut off a communication line?

Whats the point to it?

Can you tell him I said hello.
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Shouldn't we make an alternate? Or something temporary?

I don't think that AFF will be down that long. We still have I2. :thumbup:
I2 has a smiley for everything. Even a hamster wheel. :hamsterwheel:

Is completely free. I've used it in the past. It'd be good enough for a temporary forum.

There is some humour in the overreaction but not a lot.
Yes the money is wasted.....if they do not open again.
Basically, they did this those years ago and Skyblue will remember. They are likely editing all my posts and will reopen once I am cleansed off the board. Don't fret at this stage. However Gareth also wrote that he was looking for someone to take on the site.
I wonder how much he was thinking of selling his interest in it?
I would happily support both financially and with direction and email addresses a new site. Day to day running, not a fan BUT I think we could get off to a good start. If AspieMomma and Skyblue are thinking of going that way do not think it is going to be an extra cost to you :)

EDit: I will have to go to work now but will respond tonight :)

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Update! They have closed the AFF board because a few of us dared to support a banned member. No doubt they are editing our posts to make us look bad. Al is right about double standards.

They shut down the whole forum over some drama? That's weird. Is that a normal thing there?

To my knowledge, Gareth wouldn't normally do something like that, but Amy is a bit of a psycho-bitch, so overreactions of this kind are to be expected from her.
