Forumer and how much it sucks

Fuck them

Now everyone else unload the fury on them

Dearest Forumer,

You are a company, we know where are located, dont temp us.

Sincerly, Dr. Super-Lawyer Blackfuredfox The 1st Esq.

I'll just be the one to post the obligatory Libertarian diatribe about how you have no right to complain about whatever a company does or doesn't do, etc, etc, vote Ron Paul, exterminate the Jews, L Ron Hubbard et all.

But it is a service-oriented business which is obliged to provide us a decent service in exchange for viewing their crappy ads. If they're going to just cut off service indefinitely, they should, at the very least, let us know ahead of time.

In that case I'll amend my argument to a "might makes right" stance.
They're legally obliged to fuck all.
Can you realistically do anything about any of this?
Look on the bright side, at least we're not Werewolf.Com
Ever heard of them?
Exactly.

Their business is to provide forums, when they cut out like this and keep giving us bullshit answers ala Duke Nukem, people tend to get pissy. Its like if Cadillac promised if you turned in your caddy that had only a couple issues for a modified one and failed to deliver on their date time after time. I still can't understand what problems they were trying to fix.

ITT some of us miss the pretty obvious sarcasm

Sometimes it's hard to tell if your sarcasm is sincere sarcasm or sarcastic sarcasm...

Wasn't it because of "emergency maintenance"? (oh man I'm used to hearing that one!)
I don't blame them for taking it down, it's the not bringing it back up that is just downright awful. I've been checking their support forum and they seem to have abandoned working on s46. Let's all send them threatening emails, I'm sure our collective hateboner* will solve things :V

*think of it like Voltron

A Voltron boner, wow. Im on board with this, but emails, those aren't enough, let's send them threatning molotov cocktails through their windows.

That sounds like a lot of effort... What about sending them molotov cocktails through the mail?

I dunno, that sounds like it'd take too long to prove a point, the fire might go out.

First time I saw it was down, it told me it was temporary. I was imagining temporary as being at most 3 to 4 days...

Nearly 3 weeks went by, and finally I googled the forum and it didn't show up, like it had vanished like a fart in the wind.

so it might as well be fucking dead
no one's going to bother coming back
because if/when it's up they won't even know

I still check it every day, habitually. I never bookmarked the site, so the address is stored in my motor memory. All I have to do is think about the forum and the URL is just typed in in ~0.6 seconds.

to be honest i mostly had the people i helped bring over in mind
the forums went down practically the day they joined
i know personally i've abandoned forums for less
but i'm not sure it bodes well for the regulars either
for example, where's zenia? why she ain't here?

That is a very good point...

It is nice to know that SOMEBODY thought about me. I was checking the Forumer link like... 5 times a day, every day since it went down, to see if it had come back up yet. I didn't know that a new forum had been made... nobody told me until this morning.

I thought my mom's phone was tripping when it kept saying the forums were down, I don't think anyone has told me why they shut it down though either

I believe it was a server migration
But damn, this is some FAF level bullshit
Remember when it was down for like two months? (or was that the mainsite... LOL PROBABLY BOTH)
