Is it going to exist elsewhere? Do we have to sign up with a new name? Will the old logs be gone?

Do they just need someone to host it? We have the resources to do so.

Not sure, popped up somewhere. It's a good SFW regroup spot when this place gets the kaibosh.

Why is it going away in general? IS it dispappearing all together, like posts and stuff?

My understanding is it is moving/merging into the IGN side. I participate in many of the other forums here on the VN side though and those won't be moving which is why I am looking for alternatives. Don't know the rules for advertising other sites though so I won't get too much into it. The vnrefugee site is a test bed of sorts for something we are working on. Everything from there will move to the new server/site though so feel free to use it while it is still in a state of chaos, lol.

Well we should find out who's running it... going to be sort of pointless if everyone moves over there and then it goes kaput without warning lol.

edit - just saw Steel's post, so nevermind what I said.

Does anyone at those forums care to protest, or communicate through Mithan to the IGN people? Creating a new forum is hardly 10 minutes of work.

If after your concerns are expressed, they still can't recreate those boards from VN, then they just don't care and the communities of those boards should absolutely find a new place to flourish. I'd suggest sending PM in any case, though.

The way this is being handled I'm of the opinion they don't care enough about the community so see no reason to waste the effort when there are far better solutions out there.
