Hi all. It's been a while!
Our domain needed renewing today, which I've done for another year. Clearly this place isn't as active as it has been in the past, but there are still occasional posts, and I guess it's nice to have as an archive to look back on. This place arose out of the PCF forums (which I spent an awful lot of time on as a teenager) which there's no evidence of any more, so it's quite nice to still have here some evidence of the great people, and the hilarious and dramatic stuff which happened back in the day.
I suppose there are a few options that we could consider going forward.
1 - Leave things as they are
2 - Lock everything down, put the forum onto a subdomain somwhere and have it to look back on
3 - Kaboom
From my point of view, happy to keep renewing the domain. It's not much money. Whoevere is hosting the place currently probably has a veiw as well (though imagine it's pretty low resource these days). We probably do need a software update though, we're a few major versions behind and think some security issues have arisen which probably should be patched.
Equally, if nobody is really that bothered, then I wouldn't be opposed to archving everything and letting it live on as a museum. Practically I'm not regularly reading and contributing here any more.
I do think it'd be a shame if it went the way of PCFF and everything just disappeared for ever.
What do you think?
