This place is history
Does the 911 thread still exist? That was when the world changed. It was a weird thread which went through so many arcs as the story unfolded in front of our eyes

Not sure I can do it from here in Oman - they're pretty authoritarian on all things financial. In any case I'm hoping to start flitting around a bit shortly so could be off-line for extended periods.
With regards to the passwords, I suspect only the site owner can get them unless he gives power of attorney to another person.
All routes pass through Steve H at the moment so until he phones home we're limited to covering ongoing costs (which I don't think anybody objects to).
If someone knows anything about charitable trusts, that may be an option for site ownership given that the main (financial) activity of the site is flowers for stiffs.

Would anybody like to kick off a SAVE WHO FUND?
I'm already doing the WHO welfare fund otherwise I'd start it. It could be set up initially to pay somebody to sort out the passwords etc or if Bouncing Ludo could do it for nothing. Then if North Bank or defjam need any money etc to keep it going we could go from there it doesn't need to be a subscription, just needs kicking off, so don't be shy somebody get the ball rolling

If you get the passwords I'm happy to try and sort out the issues with ads etc.
However, like The Repair Shop It would be a sympathetic restoration and so the clock would remain as it is and the icons wouldn't get updated.
Happy to continue with the ongoing work on the dog icon for a few years though.

Set up a funding model and I will happily donate. Do we still have any celeb posters with mega bucks?
This site is an example of what social media could have been. It should be a case study in decades long engagement with limited changes, updates and moderation. In America some websites now sit in their national archives and are protected by law for their historical content. Is there a uk equivalent?
NB, Defjam etc thanks for your work on keeping this place going.
