So yeah. Lyra lost every last one of her marbles down the drain. Guess we gotta start over.

Im trying to remember all the old prominent posters. Castaway, Dyslexic, Fervidor, Mega Sevenways, Time Reaper, diokno44

6557611
Ah. I got a few of those but I missed some, too. Thanks.

The membership of The Insane Bat Appreciation group is a good start.

I copied the entire old front page into the Attention thread if anyone is looking for it.

I'm here.

Seriously wtf...

6557640
That's what we're all thinking

6557617
Ah! Thank you!

I'm honestly inclined to think that she was just tired of the place and looking for an exit (since her given reason is, as stated, marble-less). Which is reasonable. Especially after a spate of conflicts, her being someone not given to conflict. Thing is, the reasonable thing to do about it would have been to turn it over to one of the active mods (like our new Overdood).

6557649
She could have done so too by telling the mods

6557611
No don't!

Can't we just rename it? I'd hate to lose the page

6557649
No problem! The membership is mostly the people that jumped in there quickly last time.

Yeah, having almost done it once, I did feel like she was going to do it again at some point. I really wish she'd just asked one of the mods to move the foundership over to one of the other admins. I've gotten them to change foundership of a number of groups to me, so it isn't that difficult...

It's such a shame, I was planning on doing more things to get placed into the group.

I should have reported PMG for dishonesty and attacking others much sooner.

6557611
DON'T DO THAT YET. Dammit, I haven't given up on the old group yet!

6557583

Can't the site admins restore it?

So long as it's within a certain time frame?

6557680
Crap! I really don't wanna see that page go away. It was so much fun to watch it update with goofy stuff and more

6557682
We don't know yet, Eldorado hasn't gotten back to us.

6557682
Presumably. Whether they will or not, I can't say. On the one hand, it screwed a lot of people over. On the other hand, she did technically own it.

6557703
Oh man, that bites

6557583

You know, it's weird, I'm actually not upset at all.

If anything I'm kinda... impressed. Like, I thought Lyra was joking, but here we are.

6557723
Having had several groups shut down on me without warning, I'm a bit less impressed.

6557682

It's probably possible to find the data in caches. This other site I used to frequent completely wiped their fora but some poster were able to salvage a huge amount of old threads. Although, I personally don't have the technical know-how.

6557707

Well that's why when we make a new group we have to make sure we discipline ourselves so PMG and other trolls and what have you don't go insane like last time and we actually PUNISH those who try to make our group toxic.

6557757
I can be in charge of the disciplinary committee!

6557769

I'll be happy to help anyway I can....You know ;p

6557799
Hoorah!

6557799
That will help.

Why must all the juicy drama happen while I'm at work?

6557892
Or when I'm looking somewhere else or asleep?

I almost never posted in the old group, but I did read most of the threads, especially when I was bored.

And I'm, err, here now, I guess

6557915

Nice. Get this man another juice box.

6557938
Yay! I can tell I'm going to like it here
