Bless you for keeping it running for so long. I cannot take ownership but I would help financially. Thanks for all your work and best of luck to all!!!

Have there been any takers? Can we PayPal financial help?

And if the site is really going to go - can it be month by month? - where else do y'all hang out? The dreamwidth?

I am so sad that our home is going. You have done wondrous work Primula and given us such a lovely welcoming home to visit. My computer skills are very limited. sorry I can,t take over the running of the Boards. I am however willing to help financially. Still hoping for a happy outcome.

No takers that I'm aware of yet... :???: :help:

It isn't hard to take care of it if you decide not to update, you could just let it keep limping along. We've only had a few issues with posting, for the most part it's still functional as it is. And the admin controls are relatively easy to figure out, it's all labelled.

Hi MeM - the payment to Lunarpages is annual, though it's only gone up like $4 in all these years so it's not likely to change much. When we had a larger active community it worked to have people sponsor a month - I would pay the lump sum and then use the sponsorships as reimbursement whenever they arrived.

Merry Christmas, btw! :tree: And yes, I am getting older again, that seems to keep happening somehow. :lol:

I don't know if we'll get a few days grace from Lunarpages while they hope for payment or if we're out on our ear come January, but I'm still hoping someone might pop out of the bushes....? :boing:
