All the old message board crap was merged

[abisai]

I moved all the old shit from the Merginboard to the Stormrealm board at: bb.bbboy.net/stormrealm

This is great. DKB for president

The only bad thing it did was to cut out the voting tallies for those polls, but that is not that big of a deal. It was easy once they merged all their boards onto one server. However, I fear this means the inevitable purging of their remaining free boards. But until then we can still look back on the funny three years of old boards while they remain.

THIS was some funny shit: bb.bbboy.net/stormrealm-viewthread?forum=6&thread=2

I read the whole shit. What an account. It sounds like some cool shit did happen in that campaign. All the emrics are doomed for all time it would seem.

Subject : Free Boards Being Deleted (stormrealm)


Hi abisai,

You are being contacted by BbBoy.net because you are an admin on this message board, being hosted by us: bb.bbboy.net/stormrealm .

On 3rd June 2005, we will be deleting all free boards on the bb, denim, emerald and frost servers (one of which your board, stormrealm, is on). We're finally doing this because, sadly, the free boards don't pay for themselves any more.
The costs for hosting them are going up and up, and the income from adverts is going down, and down.

There are 3 things you can do:

1) Do nothing. If you don't want to keep your board, or if you no longer use it, you don't need to do anything. Your board will automatically be deleted. You naturally won't receive any more emails from us, since your board will have been deleted.

2) Upgrade your free board. You can upgrade from $3.50/month. Or, encourage your users to Donate to your board. You can upgrade your board yourself by visiting bb.bbboy.net/stormrealm-donate . Choose the amount you would like to add (for example, on the fixed plan $21 will last for 6 months), and then make payment.

If you are low on cash yourself, then your users can Donate to your board to have it upgraded. If you have disabled the Donations box on the bottom of your board, please consider re-enabling it, and encourage your users to donate to your board. Someone on your board must be able to spare $3.50.

3) Switch to bbv2. bbv2 is the next generation of message board software. You can either host bbv2 yourself (have a look at www.bbv2.com ), or we can host it for you (see hosting.bbv2.com ). The best part is - you can fully convert and import all your existing users, posts and forums from your existing
stormrealm v1 board.

www.bbv2.com - bbBoard v2
hosting.bbv2.com - bbv2 Hosting

Whichever you wish to do, you have until 3rd June to decide. I'm very sorry to have to delete the remaining free boards on these servers, but if we don't, we'll just get deeper into debt for each month that goes by.

Regards,
Chris - BbBoy.net

NOTE: the cost for them to host BBv2 (Option 3) is at least $10/month.

Goodbye old messageboards, goodbye.

I will miss them there was some good stuffing on there

If you go to the old message board, you would find this message from their administration (those bastards!):

On 3rd June 2005, this board (along with all other Free boards on this server) was deleted. We had planned this deletion of free boards for a long time - an email message was sent to admins of Free boards, and a notice about the deletion was posted on each board. However, we do recognize that there's a chance you might have missed these warnings.

If you didn't know about the deletions despite the warnings, your board is not lost forever. We are keeping backups of all the deleted boards for a short while. While this message is here, you can still get your board back.

To reactivate your board, you will need to make a payment to upgrade it. If you're not the Admin of this board, but would still like to save the board, you can also make a payment for it here.

To make a payment, please see the options below. When payment is received, the reactivation will not be immediate, since we need to restore the backup manually. It shouldn't take too long, though.

Hint: The basic cost for a board is $3.50/month. Large Variable Plan boards cost $6 per GB of bandwidth.

Scumbags,

Well all the old message boards are gone now. I have set up a new board which up until this time was serving as the home for "The Eberron Prison Campaign". Now there are categories there for all the cmapaigns i think have any interest in. I have attached the link to one that says "D&D Campaigns message boards" Go and post something if you dare.

The new board are here
