BTW, they nuked the forums - all new setup.  The old ones seem to be accessible, but if you had anything over there you wanted, go get it ASAP before it's gone.

Meanwhile, the front page is completely redone, and looks like S&M offloaded it entirely to Pocket Tactics.

I think the past is safely over the horizon from where we are on our own highway at this point.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I hope this site never changes to that forum style.

I promise I'll look at the front page if we ever get one!  :D

Or how much was it worth to Pocket Tactics?  :o

I'm happy for the pocket tactics guys.  The hobby needs multiple outlets for discussion and promotion.  And yes it was time for the old forum to be banished to the nether regions of the interwebs.

They should nuke the old forums entirely. Not wild about the new front end, but the forum layout is better than what they had.

Good Lord - it looks like the front page was designed by someone from Fisher-Price on acid!

At the moment there only appear to be a couple of survivors.

My guess is they'll all return - people are creatures of habit.

I thought I had gone to the wrong site first time it came-up. They shouldn't do that to a fellow sober.
