It caused some kind of security issue. I dun remember the details but Devi had to kill it to keep the forum alive.
It makes me sad whenever anyone brings it up...I miss it so...

I modded the forum too many different ways and had to pay my web host to reset everything and restore the forum. That's why there is absolutely no frills, even them-wise... because I want to make sure this place is running 100% efficiently so everyone's conversations and information are safe and the like.
Oh.. it all started because somehow (pretty sure because of the chat mod) everyone had access to administrative functions for a week.![]()
Fortunately the people who noticed warned me before any damage could be done.
Casualties of the reset included avatars, some older attachments, the chat, custom forum layout, blogs, and I did a big user purge because of an influx of spambots.

I'm actually really disappointed in the ILF community that no one has been geeky or motivated enough to setup a dedicated TeamSpeak / text chat room.
I'd fucking join in on that shit fo' sho' now and again... especially since I'm stuck at home working all the time anyhow... TeamSpeak (or whatever is good these days) would be hella rad because I could talk to you guys while working instead of watching movies.

Sounds interesting...sucks that I'm pretty phone shy so I don't know if I'd ever be on it.

You and me both, but I don't know why you're shy. I'm a homebody nerd and I can come across as awkward with my lack of talking to people, lol.

It depends on how well I know the people I guess,and to really know and be comfortable with a person I have to know them in real life.I also sound like a little kid and my voice cracks all the time so that adds to it.

Yeah I'm definitely a really extroverted person IRL,but with people online I just feel kind of weird.The chat was a perfect medium for me because it wasn't like a message board where you post and wait like 5 minutes to half a day for someone to say something,and it wasn't intimidating or awkward like talking on the phone or voice chat would be.There's also the fact that I say some really stupid things out loud and tend to just blurt out anything that comes to mind,I don't want people thinking I'm a dumb 15 year old...even though I really am.

Haha, yeah. IRL I'm just not social. I tend to dislike everyone or something. I'm a hateful person, I guess D; I tend to say some stupid shit out loud, and really..I don't want to make myself look stupid nor make the person I'm talking to feel awkward towards me.
That also irks me with forum or message boards. I like to actually type to people, and it takes FOREVER for someone to say something, and sometimes no one replies to you, and you're like ;( BAW Y NO 1 SAY NE THING 2 ME. I think chats also help for people to get to know each other better, because you can just say whatever and strike up conversations that you can't on forums and such.
