    Was looking for an old Fonk story and just noticed everything disappeared. Is there an archive of old topics?

    Probably not. Lingster dropped me a PM a few days ago, he’s decided to consolidate some of the forum categories, and focus on the four core elements of Muscular Women, Fandom / Media, General Creative Work, and Promotion.

    In the process of doing so, he’s also eliminated any posts that have been inactive for over 2 years.

    And has added advertising banners to the header in an effort to bring in some revenue to support keeping this place around.

    I plan to keep Amaz0ns standing but that means it needs to be lighter and generate a little cash.

    If people want to provide guidance about the kind of old stuff they want to see preserved, I could bring it back, but some of the ancient dead threads of hundreds of posts are pretty big drains on performance.

    Oh :/ just wish that there was some warning. Think you can bring them back for like a week? I’d like to archive a few stories

    ”….he’s decided to consolidate some of the forum categories….”

    “….he’s also eliminated any posts that have been inactive for over 2 years.”

    “…Added advertising banners to the header in an effort to bring in some revenue to support keeping this place around.”

    didn’t know THERE WAS duplicate categories…

    For sure WHAT needed TO be consolidated were THE multiple threads about same topics over&over again…
    {which already started happening IN recent months}

    plus if you delete posts from your site…you’re basically pulling a version OF DC’s 52 rebirth/ Marvel EVENt
    History collected over yrs JUST erased..lost TO sands OF time

    Ad banners are something i CAN definitely get behind…yet posts going back yrs could have been continued TO be merged

    Over the weekend I’m going to look at bringing back the old story posts. If I can find a good way to do it, I will.

    I hope you’re able to bring them back.

    Next time, can you make an announcement in the very least and give timing?

    Those are good ways to archive things…both of these cost nothing but your time

    No offense, but time is more valuable than cost IMO.
