The 'community' threads still continued ... I'm a bit worried about a couple of folks who will not consider coming here or other sites a few of us have suggested over the past year.

The rainforest crew is on thread #49, fired-up folks are on #47, NanCan's support thread's on number 9 ...

I have visited there daily for about three months. I will miss frank, anon and a few others. CI started a picture club on Yahoo groups, so I can stay in touch through that. There are a number of good posters whom I really would like to see posting here.

Do they have some objection to A2K, ehBeth?

I just spent the evening copying text from abuzz to notepad. What memories. Now I'm wondering about GoAway and Buckthorn and all the other people I haven't heard from for so long.

I'm going to save large chunks of Abuzz to disks, if anyone wants specific portions and I have the resources (time, space, bandwidth) I can create mirrors for them.

We have now around 4 threads about this. But it is bitter, indeed. Unfortunaly, the site will be closed.

End of an Era - formally and abt time. I had started feeling very sorry for abuzz for what it had become from its previous glorious times.

Well, I had quite a good time there - but haven't been there (besides condolances for those of us, who left us for ever), since A2K started.

I don't miss it really (only perhaps the "Sunday chats" :wink: ).

Either a2k is now or anytime we will at least equal to Abuzz.
Yes, it is a bold declaration, but goodness knows.

At least A2K derived from the mess of post-golden age Abuzz. Do you think that Abuzz would have carried on like before, had the whole 'no moderators' mess not come about?

If Abuzz had been moderated like "in the good old days", I doubt that A2K had been running in the way it is now .... :wink:
