If the bw domain gets dropped, lets buy it and continue to use it. We could have our own 'lets say stuff that bigfoot can't delete' forum lol!

no offense bigfoot :)

LOLOLOL OMG NOOB OWNED HAHAHAHAHH WTF

No seriously, it was a joke, but it would be cool for DBs or someone else to own that domain, and get an old-school BW up there.

I'm not aware of any plans to remove support for @barrysworld.com addies (I still use mine for quite a few things) but as far as I know you can no longer register for them and haven't been able to for a while (if you are a new subscriber I mean).

Originally it was going to be next Monday, they brought it forward to this morning. It'll be around 10am I think.

Bif really does take a huge load of shit from us, hope the suits give him good compensation for it.

The BW main site being taken down I can understand the up-roar over, but the change of the forums is a logical move if they are stopping using barrysworld domains. So why the shock?

It was easy enough to change, and I did it. Dunno why bigfoot brought up that I didn't pay, like he wants all non-subs to go?

The forums have been a bit weird for me. Maybe they are dying slowly like HAL off of 2001 ? :)

I got caught up in the fwenzy of all this and made sure I bookmarked the game.net url carefully.

Then I noticed I'd been using it anyway and had just dup'ed my bookmark.

Doh!:(

Noone ever said forums.barrysworld.com would never work.

Was always our intention to transparently redirect you to the new url keeping the URI's intact so no links would break.

Just took me longer to sort out mod_rewrite, horrible module but cool when it works :p

That doesn't say it is getting switched off.

Bif just forgot to mention the redirect that is all. Nowt bad.

Anyway, time to go do other things.
