How many people are sick of ENworld going down?

I also have some other suggestions. While I personally enjoy ENWorld, and have frequented it since Cromagnon man first drew his first cave picture, there are some other very good sites to visit should ENWorld be unavailable due to technical trouble.

www.dragonsfoot.org is a site devoted to earlier editions of D&D, but with a growing 3E section, and a forum wholly devoted to debate between its members as to what the best edition of D&D is! :) As a leader of the "ENWorld Invasion" of Dragonsfoot, I highly recommend it, for both stimulating discussion, and for excellent resources for your 1E and classic D&D campaigns!

www.montecook.com is devoted to my second favorite game designer in the whole world, and quite a few ENWorlders visit the site!

Third is a site I'm not supposed to mention FNORD http://nutkinland.d20boards.net/ FNORD , but is a place for fascinating discussion of RPG's, rants and raves, and run by a really nutty guy, a dead girl, and a vengance bunny.

Finally, if I might mention, long-time community members might well remember the dark ages of the boards (like earlier this year), when the boards own popularity forced Morrus to limit board traffic to 200 simultaneous users -- PERIOD. It was a horrible time, a time of Human sacrifices, dogs and cats living together, and Mass hysteria. But with the move to a rather well-maintained linux box through the help of Adlon of Mortality.net, things got better. WAY better.

KenM -- trust me when I say, that the end product of the board moves will be a good thing - for you and me, for Morrus, and for the long-term health of ENWorld.

Henry, don't forget about the Swedish fellow who was holding the server hostage and giving Morrus grief. I think SHARK was preparing a marine task force, while I was contacting a third cousin twice removed with a friend of a friend in the Mossad.:D

Seriously, EN World does work well considering that this is:
1) Not a corporate website with full time paid staff members.
2) A volunteer effort.
3) A site kept busy by a bunch of people with high numbers of posts.
4) An independent site that attracts comments from industry pros that a lot of people want to read.
5)a site run by someone who deals with headaches wjem ot os evening in Britain, while at the same time it is afternoon in the U.S. when the boards hit their peak time periods during the afternoon. (Afternoon at least for people in the Central or Eastern time zones.)
6)A site with a growing number of members.
7)A site where there is a lot of stored threads.
8)A site that does not charge for membership, posting, or throws annoying pop up adds at you every minute.
9)A site that has had ownership changes.
10) A site that has moved about a few times on the web.

So, is EN World perfect? No. However, it is fun. KenM, I hope you will stay. Remember, if you want respect, give it to others. (A personal saying of mine: Respect is given, trust is earned.)

Yes, I'd loved... :D

Croathian, you and Eric's Grandmother would be shocked by the list of things that Horacio has "loved" ;) :D

And as Henry mentioned in an early post... this is NOTHING compared to the times of the 200 user limit... oi vey... the pain of that memory alone almost sends me weeping.

William Ronald, and you call yourself a Chicagoan. :rolleyes: All I have to do is talk to the guy who was my little brother's best man (and one of my best friends growing up) and let him talk to his buddies. Third cousins twice removed as contacts to "problem solvers", indeed. ;)
 

Hey you Mucksmucker (people only want to hear words that sound bad, like muckluck), leave this site alone. Its a pretty site, with lots of pretty black colors, and its soft and cuddly like razor blades. So yeah.

My group's kinda tired of the boards going down, too. We're moving our In Character stuff off the boards, and our DM is refusing to log on again, sadly.

Privilage, right... we just want to play D&D.

Nice knowing you.

PS Plus, we're all pretty sure that Morris is actually a Frenchman who hates us Americans. Curse him..
