*** UPDATE ***

I'm going to tentatively go forward with this whole fan forum idea here. The project will start slow at first since the future is still murky (and could result in not needing a new forum), and I'm still finishing up classes. But the plan is to have something for everyone by the time the first new show happens in June!

Explud, can you email me at c h o n e g g e @ p u r d u e . e d u ? (remove the spaces of course)

Ben_j, Krisper, Whirly, can you email me too at the above address? I want to CC you on this since I know y'all will be able to help here and there as well. No obligations, just eavesdrop at the very least.

Literally anyone else who wants to chip in or just listen to how the projects going, feel free to email me! I'll throw you in. Anything from design/photoshop skills to IT and web administration will be a huge, huge help. Even memes to keep the spirits up.

At some point I will make a mailing list to inform you of when the new forum goes up, regardless of where we are. If this does not happen, I'm 80% sure the forum will be at www.thechembase.com, so check there if we don't get each other's contact info.

I'm absolutely willing to put the effort and time in, but if it's just me and Csar discussing the decline of communication in social media, I'll just email him

What do you all think?

I've already archived all significant user's post counts and join dates (if your post count is over a certain count and you've logged in since 2010, or if you've been active recently). So no matter what our high scores won't be lost. There's about 110 of us btw.

edit: did just read the other topic....

I absolutely would!

I would. I can also help putting it in place if you like

The forum is going to be closed. See Whirly's post about that

EDIT : can we make the new forum look just like this one ? We would hold it in a well, so that it doesn't escape and we would feed it by getting a bucket down there, and it would rub the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again

I can use all the help I can get! Still kind of new to web development. I can handle code but there's a lot I still need to learn, especially server side.

hahahahahaha

I am considering doing skins for it, swappable CSS sheets... an old school dust theme, WATN theme, serial killer theme, whatev

You can count me in, WN

I would be happy to join you guys.

Count me in.
Though I'm still hoping they change their mind and let our little corner in this universe stay.
Where's Ed when you need him?

I'll think about it, but you need to throw something else on the table. I want free access to the forum girls knickers, and find Pink Shoes.

Maybe we can ask a backup of this forum and migrate it to another platform?
Rename it to "Unofficial fan forum"?

Uh?

Whirly, can u ask 3ev guys about it for us?

I'm in because i'm not going to use Facecrack and i don't understand Reddit

This has been the best place for Chemical news and conversations and I will miss it. I post rarely but check in often. Count me in.

Czekamy na wiesci od ED

I'm down as long as the posts from this forum get migrated over to the new one.

Let's see what happens, but if this place really shuts down, yeah, I'm in for a new forum.

Count me in, love followin the chats on here, not much of a poster though.

I will also follow with the group, wherever it migrates.

I hold dear my connections to you all, not necessarily to this place, and wherever we go to keep these connections alive will be a place I will welcome as an Internet home.

I'm in too. I can help with IT stuff too, don't have a lot of time, but I can do a bit.

lol no


cuz not everyone will know about it. It'll just be a circle jerk of couple of dudes. Revamp this old forum and the possibility of new members joining, old ones returning are higher.

+1

will lurk the shit out of the new forum. thx for all the work!

...and hi everybody!

Yeah, when you guys do the new forum, make sure we have the ability to "Like" posts so we can put a big thumbs up next to shit like that. ^
