The boards that were put up to replace the one we used to use was taken down by the website powers that be. Big brother is everywhere! Maybe someone should start up a message board from Amsterdam or Las Vegas...  

or hideout?
or secret cove?
or whatever it was called?

What the hell is goin on?

In accordance with Section 25(a) of the ProBoards Terms of Service, this forum has been taken offline.

Can we get any more shell-shocked?

They should have started them under free boards or forums that are catered to adult activites

Maybe that's a sign to let the other site family die. We are in a new era for us and we need to adapt or we will sink.

yeah I just tried logging into that site.  man, it was great seeing some familiar faces for the short time it was up.  It was just like old times.  There must be another board going somewhere.

I understand the whole, lets move on mentality, but for some of us, that board was our source of advertising, socializing, references and female support. In other words we will clearly need to move on, but let us mourn a bit. Be sad for a loss. Maybe we need to whine for a bit before completely moving on.  

I agree with Jamie; a proper period of mourning is called for.  We lost a community last week, and  
even though parts of it was crude and very aggravating, much of it was a place where like minded folks could find each other and express themselves.  Silencing the free exchange of ideas and
views is the antithesis of what our country is supposed to be.  And although the other site was
careless, and allegedly participated in some illegal activities, one is still innocent until proven
otherwise.  The harm perpetrated by the authorities far outweighs whatever the other site was
doing, particularly when one considers the good.

Hindsight is 20/20 of course, but if you Google the name of the other site and "adult content" or "tos adult" you'll see that their policy is pretty restrictive. Other boards at least allow adult content.

How could they (DOJ, et al) have turned on us so completely; after giving such long-standing support as a community?

The best news I've heard (since I heard coffee helps fight gout). Guess we'll have to Chase someone else

I heard there were like 800 people added in 7 days. It just goes to show what word of mouth will do. I agree this is a good substitute but I promise someone will soon come a new with a site similar to out beloved and it will spread like wildfire. Hopefully they Dont make the same mistakes as these other Sites, Forums and chatrooms.  

He who has the gold makes the rule!  

Probably don't need to go to those places that despise the USA.  Plenty of offshore places still protect privacy, and Seychelles was probably a very good choice
