where to meet up if this site dies?

This site clearly has major issues since the move. I'll be crushed if I'm unable to find you guys -- you know who you are. Is there some new place I can find your folks?

This site is going to get rebuilt by the new owners. And the more members they can keep the merrier.

Several people are already members here: http://www.vbforums.com/forum.php

I'd prefer to stay here, but I'm also on Freaks and SO ....

Only other tech forum I spend any time at is Webdeveloper.com -- which is a sister site which is also being transferred to the same new owners. I'm on KBoards.com with the same handle, though I don't spend a lot of time there any more as it's been (figuratively) taken over by e-book authors instead of e-book readers. I keep thinking about starting up a reading forum some day, with the goal of keeping it reader-centric, but, well, life. ¯_(&#12484_/¯

I'll believe it when I see it. Hoping so!

I'm also a member there, although I never really have occasion to do windows dev.

Well, we got something shiny & new, at least. Will take some getting used to after two decades of vBulletin

OK I'm a member of Webdeveloper forum too and I see you over there too -- although it's quite a mess as well. This kind of consolidation is unsettling and I'm still fairly alarmed that forums like this are going away. Should we become friends on gasp social media or something?

My Twitter handle is public, so @CWReaceJr if anyone cares.

Yes, I actually use my real name there. PM to be sent ASAP with link.

Thanks for getting back to me, guys!

Maybe we should skin this to look EXACTLY like the previous version...haha... Ummm, no.

What forum software is this, I've never seen it before?

Steve_R_Jones

The software is called Flarum.
