An image board like chaosflux had might be fun...

If you has any content you are fond of living there, go back it up. She's going DNS tits up in about 60 days or so folks as "INSERT REASON HERE*".
Kind regards, been a whole lot of fun :

This is the end of an era...It seems like forever ago that we stormed the ramparts of the Obsidian Mirror. :cry:
I need the dictionary thread.
I think Verthaine had some good stuff over there. I haven't really browsed around there much.
The domain's good until April 5th.
That's a little longer than I thought, and it should give everybody lots of time to mine anything you want to keep.

What, that pile I threw up before I learned how to KYFMS?
1. Awww that's sad. Even though I never really posted or even much lurked there, it's still an iconic place in our corner of Discordia
2. Liam does that mean that you are going to spend more time posting here then? Pretty please? :D
3. And the other EB&G spags? Or do they have other forums, I believe they don't all like PD as much ... ?
4. About content, I seem to remember that a few years back, when I was reading Roger's MSY series, there were one or two episodes that I couldn't find in the archive on POEE.co.uk, that I had to go look up on EB&G, so it might be important to make sure those are available online somewhere.
The Diplomat in me would want to extend an invitation to the EB & G denizens, though I understand some reluctance to put down roots here.
I have fond memories of EB&G. I would like to have been able to hang around more, but with all that life has thrown at me over the past couple of years, I had to kind of limit myself to one haunt.
EB&G will have the special distinction of giving me my first pun thread. Well, I did have to share it with Dan. Bon Voyage!
Good times, good memories. Via con Dios, EB&G.

anything you want go copy / paste.
No chance of getting a sql dump of the rant forum? Specifically Verthain stopped posting here long ago and I'd like a personal copy of his rants, and who knows what else that wasn't cross posted here.
That's a good point. I might be worth it to compile Verthaine's writings.
It seems like only yesterday I got fired for being on EB&G during work hours... good times! That job sucked donkey anyway, and it gave me two weeks to be on there nonstop!
I will miss EB&G, though I haven't really been on in years... it was the only forum my wife ever posted on. One tear.
Bella, thanks for some good years. This is sad.
Thanks for running the site as long as you did, guys!
In the past when I've been frustrated with this forum, it gives me comfort to know that there ARE other established Discordian communities out there.
Bella and Liam, you guys are obviously more than welcome over here. In fact, anybody over at EB&G is welcome over here, though I can't guarantee that Zurtok won't get endlessly fucked with.
I just recalled how much history I have at that place. Sad to see it go. :(
Hey, maybe we can track down Trollax and offer to sell it back to him... and then invade it again.
Sell it to Luke, we need a good adversarial site. It could be like pd.org all over again.

It was Daven and Hugh, I thought. :?

I dunno. I was just there to fuck with them.
Daven and Trollax.
Hugh was over there being less of a douchebag than usual* being a douchebag to the right people, so it's technically right...
*edited for logical impossibility
I thought SMFabal owned the website and Daven and Trollax were just the admins?
Either way, it's too bad we don't have those two to kick around.
:sad:
Even though I do not post much-I'll still miss being able to go to the Grill.
Thanks for running it this long guys.

Yeah, that is correct. I think Hugh was an admin or something too, at some point. Maybe a mod.
As I said in the other thread, I have saved everything from the lecturn over at the bar and grill (bella and liam, sorry about mining the site).
The link to everything from that specific forum is

No problem, Faust. We're hoping everybody takes the time to mine whatever they'd like to save. That's why we gave a couple of months notice. :)
Man, seriously? Wow. Truly an end of an era, as Roger said.
Not really sure what to think right now. I know its ending with no hard feelings, but so much of my life went into that site. It's not the same as if PD.com was going under, but still prominent.

so, uh, yeah, keep that whacky whacky outlandish flag of discord flying fellas and ladies.
{edit}
anyone wants the domain hit me or my wife up on facebook or whatever, and its all yours.
Woo. Yeah. 23ZomgpIneal~! Stoke your fnords and whatnot. Laters.
Okay, the bar and grill has a new home and will be moving house again soon! I'm very pleased that Captain Utopia has offered to both host and manage the forums. Liam and Dan and I are going to be doing a little housecleaning, after which we'll unadmin ourselves and hand over the keys.
EB&G has been dying a slow and painful death for a while now and I'm hoping that this change will give the forums a much needed jump start. Thank you all for your kind words in this thread and for saving so much material from the Bar and Grill - I appreciate you guys. And now Liam and my sister, Zorga, and I are going out to eat Thai food and get roaring drunk in honor of the Bar and Grill's second shot at life. :)
Its good to see that it will be sticking about, there are very few discordian forums out there.
