I'm afraid after many weeks of talking to Hostforweb (they really have been wonderful), it is no longer viable for them to keep us onboard. I have sent an international money order, and it never arrived, and when I sent a wire transfer, my banks computer network went offline, leaving me nearly $1000 out of pocket.

I simply cannot pay another $1000 (on top of fees and penalties) in the current circumstances, so the only solution, sadly, is to close the sites down.

If anyone can think of any alternative solutions, please PM me, I've been told that we have 48 hours.

Thanks everyone, and thanks Hostforweb (the best damn webhost in the world).

Actually Battye I may be able to help.
I have a small forum and if you could transfer all my posts over I would really like to have them.
Anyone else who would like to keep their posts is welcome to transfer them over (if Battye will do it!!)
Check me out at http://www.moonie-dust.com :wink:

Yes, the posts can be transferred. I made a program to do this, it can be downloaded from my new site: http://www.bullie-dust.com/bullmx.php

I wonder why that is? :wink:

April Fools everyone! They actually received my payment today, and we will be online for another year.

Also, some promising prospects will pop up over the next few months, with one being as close as days away :)

Thanks to Hostforweb for being so accomodating of us :)
