Timebomb Closing Thread

I'm not surprised that this is to be the final result. There were only two or three sysops who did the hard work over there, like archiving posts and fixing html mistakes, not to mention trying to keep order. Those people have moved on. I don't feel any pangs of regret because the Timebomb it became was nothing like the Timebomb it was.

Git, I didn't know anything about the old forum. After the flaming I'm getting over there today I won't be real sad to see it close either.

Well, I will miss what is was, but not what it has become.

I really am sorry to see the collection of contributors that made it so vital and interesting split between several different boards.

In addition to this one, there are two others that I now check, but the synergy of the old board was, in my opinion, unique.

I can't gloat over the end of the old forum, but what is was has been gone for some time. Just as well we all move on.

You're right, GB. Sometimes, when I'm looking for a particular humorous piece or prep information, I'll wander around the original TB and enjoy the camaraderie. The URL is:

Original Timebomb Forum

The old preps forum is:

Git, Am I doing something wrong? The links don't work for me.
