I just checked something again; fortunately, the cooking and baking forum's still up.

4. It was inevitable. First Meta, then GD, Cooking and Baking is next.

Soon they'll be nothing left but the Lounge. Victory is within our grasp!

8. Perhaps it's forum / database maintenance?...

On another forum I used to frequent they were down for scheduled maintenance a few hours every week.

9. Thanks, hope the hosts and juries are flexible with what they call "off-topic"

We know GD stuff is gonna pop up in other forums.

Hope they consider that.

Hmmmm.

We're having lots and lots of "guests" here.

Probably primitives curious as to what happened.

<<<have noticed that when primitives are curious about what's happening behind the curtain on Skins's island, they first turn to the DUmpster, to find out.

I wonder what they are scrubbing.

And it's still gone.  That's very strange.  You would think there would have been some sort of announcement.  What does that accomplish?

It's being re-spun as the "Bouncy Forum".  :whistling:

Me too.  It's probably a gold mine of seditious treasure.

This is ominous.

It's 8:00 a.m. central time, and while the cooking and baking forum still stands, there hasn't been anybody there since dear sweet old Lu posted her "what's for dinner?" topic nearly six hours ago.

I wonder if space aliens kidnapped the primitives.

That's it.

It's being retrofitted to serve as the hoped-for Bouncy forum.

Our luck can't be that good... Can it?

No.  They would bring them back.   :lmao:

Well, as of 11:00 a.m. central time, General Discussion is back.

Alas, it looks the same as it's always looked--full of sour dour whining bawlbaby pissy primitives.

Heart skipped a beat! I thought for a second Skimmer's lazy flunky Elad was installing the new Dead DUmmies forum. But no.

By far the best comment, from the brain-dead DUmmy kpete:
