i know nothing is "forever" on the internet but i'd like to ask 7thelement how long r u gonna get it going?

give us a conservative estimate, how much does it cost to run such a board and is it sustainable?

I'd like to come back and visit years down the road.

I like to say that i am currently applying for a medical school and if i am in for the long ride (about 6 years or 7 years of training).

I'd like to come back and visit u guys cuz ur such a fine bunch and i really hate to see this group to disappear :(

so many things change.....

I'm not gonna go into detail into how they've got it (it's kinda personal so it's up to the admin to explain further if needs be), but you'll have to trust me when I say that they've got enough for the board to last a long time - A very long time!

How else could we get the radio server? ;)

Ah, so a new radio server is going to reverse the 9000% drop in membership?

Good news, I thought the forum was gasping for it's last breath. Spicy, bullshitty, just the way you like it right?

I'm allowed to speak now. Illuminati gets my drift I'm sure.

The original question was how long the board would/will last, not how long the community will.

Honestly balamm, ever since your unceremonial leave from being a mod you've been acting like you've got a big chip on your shoulder - If you thought/wanted this place to go, what the hell are you still doing here?

Do us a favour and tell us the truth - Did you leave or was your ass booted out of the team? <_<

The question is of debatable worth.

If JBR were to come back in 6 years and the whole feel and look of the board were entirely different. All the people were different and what was allowed was different. Would it actually be the same board.

Nothing lasts forever, everything is transient and evolving. It&#39;s really just a matter of enjoying things while they are available.

maybe ppl lose interest in all the free porn, free movies, free games, free songs, free apps and free stuff they can get from the file sharing community.....

only time can tell...

In all honesty I only use k++ occasionally. Have done for some time.

I prefer Soulseek for Music and BT for movies. I only use K++ for software now (it is still the best for that).

However I keep coming here (the only forum I use), cos&#39; I like the mix. It is the best administered and moderated forum I have found. Indeed it is the only one I really like.

Is your reading impaired as well? The PM&#39;s between myself and VB were posted.

My issue is not with the board, but with knobs like yourself who exist in the shadows, passing your little conspiracy notes and trying to pull others you approve of, into elite little cliques which sit high and mighty above everyone else.

Well inuendo boy, your inuendos are poorly constructed as usual. You might want to consider changing your source of inuendo material.

How was this? Spicy and bullshitty enough for you? :)

I find the mule is better for software, if you&#39;ve got a little patience.

Balamm does make a valid point.


IMO the board will be around for a long time.Darker and 7th seem to be doing a good job.

I honestly don&#39;t think it will be around for long and don&#39;t see the same people sticking around for years to come. I, for one will be leaving sometime into the new year and wont be making a big thing of it, not even a post to say so because it moves so fast and I cant expect to be able to say goodbye a year after joining and expect a farewell from people I don&#39;t know and who are different to when I first joined. I see forums a different way now, just drop in, ask a questions, answer some and go, time waits for no man. :)

So with college starting for me soon, I wont have time for forums anymore and I suppose the same applies for other people and some will simply get bored of seeing the same questions, talking bout the same things and hanging round the same group of people.

So will the board last forum last long?
Sure it will, could still be here in 10 years, but the people make the forum, the people will be different and so will the forum. So what should be asked is how many of us think we&#39;ll be here in 5 years say, rather then will the board still stand ...
