That's cool. We appreciate everything you've done for us.

There are a couple of places that do pro hosting (a board license would be extra, unfortunately) that would host this place, but that requires money, unfortunately.
<I>Exceptions are made for educational sites, sites providing only links to other sites, and text materials of an adult nature, although we reserve the right to make further restrictions at our own discretion. </I>

and several other paid hosting sites...




We're just pissed off and it's just going to be a _real_ bitch to go and try and recreate everything that was there... (sighs)
