They say they are merging us. Not sure if that means moving this board over to IGN, or telling us if we want to post go there...and closing this board.

No one seems to know. No one seems to know when it will happen....other than "as soon as they get to it".

But VN boards is going away. That has absolutely been confirmed.

to be honest this board has lasted about 8 years longer than I thought it would!

OK. Latest word is they are taking the whole board over there. Everything is supposed to get ported, post count and all. Log in like usual, just go to a different system. The boards over there look like crap, but search works, and you can have bigger animated icons. shock

Wont be the same, but sorta close I guess.

It the beginning of the END. VN is being phased out and its only a matter of time before IGN closes. I will miss the Outpost. I hope Outposters can find a new home, one that is moderated and not free for all with filth like the secret boards

Garth is getting garthy because he's not in the loop.

mods will probably be fired and lose all their benefits.

Garth is trying to cloud the issue. The merger will destroy the Outpost and we will all be thrown out on the street.

What about the pensions of former mods? It's been such a comfortable life off that one. Now that would really piss me off plain

The outpost doesn't move - the other boards would be coming here and orbiting around us...
