- Anti-Piracy Boss: TV Fans Are Unreasonable For Wanting Content Quicker June 1, 2012
Hello guys, very nice idea of a blog. Also very glad to see underground.mn RSS at last! Thanks so much.
PLEASE REOPEN UF!!!!!!!!!
I’m just a teenaged girl who sits down and reads all the time, your forum has helped to keep me in books and right now im ready to go mad! I LOOVVVEEEE UF and if it goes i might die with it! Reading the first page i ran across this line “It was formed when another forum community was tossed away by its leaders” PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS TO US! TO ME! TO YOU!
You have created a community, something that a lot of us go on and smile because we’re part of it. Please re-Open it. We’re all willing to help (at least i am) if you need it and ask for it, in anyway that i(we?) can.
Please do not take this away, do you remember how it felt when the forum you loved got abondoned?
XOXO-
MidnightTempest
This site is amazing and a shame when its not available. PLEASE come back soon and just ask there are plenty of us willing to help.
ello, thanks for starting this blog and welcome to all UFérs. im rizzallynne, the Pro-Lurker of the UF ebooks section. i missed UF so much. but still im happy we still have this blog and IRC chat which give me chance to meet/talk/know my fellow UF members whom i have not when the forum was still up. i hope we can persuade NOSORRY to open it up again for us. come on everyone, shall we start a signature campaign? xD
Hey i really can`t believe that the forum it`s actually closing down… i feel like i lost a relative or something… can we wait for the forum to re-open? There lost of people that share the same feeling that i have please don`t let that relationship fall apart…
Hey, really miss the forums. Please please please bring it back =(. It was a very active community of readers, which i haven’t found anywhere else.
Would like to see this forum and running again =)
Hey, nosorry…
I think by now all world knows about UF smack down, but not what really happened, but you know, at this point WE don’t really care.
We just want our place open again, in this life everything has a solution, it may take some time but it has. And if you need help you have a great staff and great members willing to do almost anything to see UF shine and live.
These past days I read people worried for not to have UF anymore, and once they calm down, they are cheering with hope and faith. I think that say a lot of the kind of spirit UF brings out from us.
We are here, since you kindly opened the UF Chat, people is camping day and night waiting, waiting and waiting. And is willing to come everyday and share joy and chat for the time it takes and I know when UF is open they will be there again because they, we, have found another great thing UF give us: FRIENDSHIP.
So… we’ll wait.
Irae
just bit confused has the forum shut down or something??
Site is up and running fine. Thanks for the support.
Thank you for all the work that was put in to the site. I will miss it.
NoSorry why is this the end of underground..
Not having the time or ambition to run a forum with thousands of members isnt really a good excuse.
Iv flicked you a email in regards to this, get back to me when you can.. as I want to help if i can to keep the site open.
Cheers,
Kris_boi
@Kris_boi,
Personal life lead me to this decision. I have looked into finding someone who I trust and know to carry on the project. I did not appreciate your comment about not having a good excuse but everyone is entitled to an opinion. I wish you the best in the future mate.
Have the more active members of the community decided where they’re moving to?
This is a real shame.
Best of luck
It’s a shame all this happened, and I’ll sure miss the forum and everyone in it, but I get where nosorry’s coming from. It’s his creation, which makes it his choice.
Thanks to everyone who’s kept the site up and running so smoothly all this time!
Cheers to you all!
Nosorry, thank you for the two years we had UF. You was an excellent admin. I know first hand the hard work and dedication you put into UF. I also know how much you cared about members, staff and UF. There will never be any forum that compares to it.
I can only respect your decision you made. Over these past few years you have taught me so much and helped me in so many ways, as well as helping so many others.
I wish you well!
@Kris, listen, how about YOU take on a website and be completely responsible for it’s day to day upkeep, and monitoring, as well as deal with any and all legal issues that may arise, AND have a personal life to go with it.
AFTER YOU DO THAT FOR A WHILE, how about having something in your personal life (nosorry, I couldn’t even hazard a guess at to what that may be) pop up and cause some issues, AND THEN, make a decision that will effect thousands!
Knowing that he is going to be effectively letting everyone down by shutting down this site, had to have weighed heavily on his mind and heart, so no matter what your opinion is, it obviously isn’t one he happily made!
Keep your opinions to yourself man, cause that was just plain rude and wrong to post on this blog! If I was nosorry and if there ever WAS a chance for this site to come back in the future either by my own hands or someone else’s, YOUR NAME WOULDN’T BE ON IT!
@Nosorry, sorry to hear you are having some personal issues, and I hope whatever they may be, your life is headed in the right direction for you. Know that there are several of us out here that completely understand, and hold no ill-will. If you ever are able to find someone trustworthy to take over the reins, I sure hope you would let us know.
I fully intent to keep up with the IRC and this blog,
GOOD LUCK!
@Twirlmaniac,
In no way was my comment to be disrespectful to nosorry, hes a awesome person and put in some hard yards to save Asta which turned to UF… we all have the right to our own opinions and incase you were wondering i manage a important site for a living… well im part of a team of 4 that look after a business website.
What I had merely pm’d nosorry about if you were interested was a way to keep UF open and to offer free hosting and all his ftp an acp access would stay the same etc. That way UF could stay open and he wouldnt have to carry the burden on his own about keeping the site up and maintaining it as there are people who want to help.
Hi nosorry
Just some words to say UF was one of the most best forum i had never seen. The site was much more than a just a forum. I know the decision must have been hard to take for you. My only hope like many other members is to see UF relive again one day. It has been a pleasure to give some of my time to help you and will be ready to do it again without hesitation.
Hope everything goes well for you in life and wish you the best of luck.
respect for all your work ADMIN! and thank you!
First — I want to thank you all for everything that you’ve done for me and the other members. This was my favorite forum ever…..Everyone was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and respectful — underground will be missed –
