Besides people loving to board the dramallama-train, using their disagreement with the staff applications as an excuse, I have no fucking clue.

I think rather than "closed down", we should use "put down", or "put out of its misery" or something.
I wept. Well, when blackhole89 and Ailure took over and started fucking things up. That's when I realized, closing it is for the best.

While yes, it's sad that Acmlm's is gone, to me, the place isn't as important as the people there. Acmlm's Board is what brought us together, yes, but the board hasn't been "Acmlm's" since 2004/2005, and it was only really there as the token place for everyone to gather. Losing it means losing a relic of the internet, and a relic of the community, but in truth the community is what matters, and it can gather anywhere: on IRC, another board, over AIM, or Skype, or in real life.

Oh my god, Kattwah's layout works!

Eh, I wasn't really paying attention to that board after Justus came about anyway. I think I made about 5 posts there in the last month (and they were all in the last 3 or 4 days)

Oh well.

Hm. Isn't that a little bit rude if Acmlm has said that he would like the forum to be over?

I know that if I were in Ace's shoes, I'd be somewhat annoyed if they were not going to take my feelings into consideration / run a forum under my name without my express consent.

Just like I was annoyed about the "rude" forum remaining under my name...

So apparently I missed something... I go to bed and board2 is imploding or something, I come back and there's a big sad thread about the death of board2, but board2 is still around on a backup....

And ||board uses acmlm.org despite Acmlm asking them to stop using it, so I don't know if the name will be thrown out of board2 either.

What happened? I was at a LAN party last night so I missed everything from 5 PM EST to right now...

Am I on "Shoot on sight" status here? X seemed pretty angry with me yesterday.

EDIT: Nah, I'll just go. Have fun, guys.

Milly gave Xk permission to shut the board down. Doom clock was added, board ended at 1:45 AM EST.

...Sometime this morning, SOMEONE put it back up for no valid reason.

Actually, blackhole's reason is because Acmlm had nothing to do with it. Its just Xkeeper.
