      We have decided to do away with the old forums that had over 500,000 posts and replies dating all the way back to 2008. Too much link rot from old sponsors, affiliates, companies gone out of business, etc.. Just not worth the trouble to try to fix all the link, redirect them and get them up to speed.

      The sheer size of the database was crazy and it was a drain all the way around. I have all the posts in archive and can access them if anyone needs them. We will be starting over and moving forward. Forums are not a popular form anymore and I will lose a lot of traffic because of the old posts that are indexed, but they will be forwarded to other parts of the forums.

          Just too much to worry about with stuff that isn’t used.
