I was hoping that someone else would say something, but seeing as they haven't, then I'm very sorry that it has to be me - believe me, this is the last thing that I want to say or even to think about, but this is affecting my life and I'm sure a few others.

So, what's happening?

Corey, before I carry on, I totally understand that you have been doing this for 11 years and want to move on, and that you have nobody to pass it onto - I fully understand and respect you for that - but if you don't want to do this anymore then please don't keep us all hanging on and let us know the score.

This forum was in maintenance again for something like 40 hours, and when you finally logged in to sort it out there was no explanation to the forum users whatsoever. Have you even noticed that CJ is an Ex Member? I'm very sure that CJ wouldn't leave like that (I certainly hope not anyway - CJ, Please come back!), so it has to be a corrupted file. What's happening?

And, this forum is unusable and I know that yourself and everybody else knows that - this isn't working - this is totally killing YaBB - it's absolutely murdering it. Whether there are devs working on the project or not, we still need a forum that works. It's impossible to even try to give support here, because like I say, this forum is practicably unusable.

What happened to the $50 off Miss Emily for the license removal? That was six months hosting there.

Like I say, I don't want to say any of this, but unless this gets sorted out then I just can't go on giving support or come here any more - I'm very sorry to the genuine users who need support, but I'm sure they will understand - it's impossible for me to do anything else.

It's only courteous to let the forum users what is going on, so please can we have an explanation?

To repeat myself, I'm very, very sorry that it is me who has had to say something in public, and I'm probably going to be hated for it, but this is slaughtering YaBB - I can't stand by and see that happen without saying something.

I pay for web space every year just so that I can make YaBB Mods and test Mods - nothing else, just YaBB stuff - so if I can have web space that works (and believe me, I'm a poor person) then I can't understand why this place can't?

So, what is happening? My full respect for what you have done in the past, but, what's happening?

No doubt I will be dragged across scalding hot sands for this, but I've almost given up caring what people think of me when nobody else seems to care anyway.

If this is a waste of mine and everybody else's life, then please tell us...

Sorry for my bad english.

If de hosting is the problem ,than i will host the site.
I will pay the cost for myself so Yabbforum can run for the people who need help.

And maybe the developers will come back en continue whith developing YaBB 3 MySQL.

So if corey  contact me , we can move YaBB to a new hostingaccount en the site will run as it should run.

Carsten leaving, CJ being an Ex-Member (with no reasoning), and Support team members asking what is happening here do confirm that my difficult decision to move my site away from YaBB after 5.5yrs is the correct, albeit regretful, decision.

It would really be sad to let it die, but I can't help out with development as I don't know a thing about perl and my localhost doesn't support perl. If you need help with the website feel free to ask me, I would be happy to help you
