F-16 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 As seen on the "General Modelling Discussion" forum.... (http://www.zone-five.net/showthread.php?t=32573) ANNOUNCEMENT... "Alright guys, it's come to it. When we opened this site in 2009, I don't think anyone had any idea how things would go, or that we would even last this long, but I think I've made the decision to let the forum die. Bulletin boards are being replaced by things like reddit, Instagram, and so on. Facebook remains active somewhat, but the bulletin board is getting quite vacant. I'm not really interested in handing the site off to anyone else (it's a hassle, believe me), and I'm not really interested in footing the bill for another year. We're good into January, so we can talk about it more if you like, but I'd start saving any info you want if you don't want it to go away!" Scott CNJC-IPMS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Never been on that site but no website will last forever. If you find pics or info that you feel is valuable, copy > paste. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Janissary Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I find their "tweak list" pages to be quite useful http://www.zone-five.net/forumdisplay.php?s=be53a6aa2258428210ac58a75caca21d&f=114 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Camus272 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 It seems down to only a few modeling posts per year. I suspect most users wanted to talk about the "off-topic"subjects rather than actual modeling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airmechaja Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I'd shut it down too. The traffic there is about null! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
