The overwhelming majority have already voted with their feet sparxx, at least temporarily. If the other place falls flat on it's @rse we can always come back over here.

With regrets and some sadness, I feel I have to be the one to pronounce "Greenspun et mort": long live The Vicars, now residing at:

"http://www.frogger.uklinux.net/unufc/"

then we should say...This coming Monday we begin using the other site as primary BBS and this one as backup only. A mail message should be sent to all members....

Sparxx - se my comments on the other forum (!). I don't think there's any need to close this forum down as it would be useful as a back up, and as a signpost for stragglers.
This seems like a pretty brief transitional phase with most bbsers instinctively going for the new place - a few days of double-boardage while people make the switch shoudln;t be too much of a hardship.

I agree Dan, and it's comforting to know that Greenspun and it's history of threads is still there. No need to enforce closure as far as I can see.
