Hacking wouldn't be a big problem, Mike has the whole forum continuously backed up.

I first visited the website more than five years ago, and I became a regular visitor since then. So, I don't predict any changes that will make me leave for good (grrr, I was on vacations when the forum started, or I'd be one of the first ones here). I can become a much less regular poster (sigh, and I guess I'd have to lose my modship then :( ), but I'll keep visiting because, frankly, the ideas behind this place interest me.

And, since Mike is in the beggining of that stage of the life where things are already settled down, I don't see why he should lose interest either in a foreseable future.

Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi wrote:Also, two more questions:

1. What will cause the board to go down indefinately?
2. How long will you be posting here?
1. Either when Mike looses interest or is dead, which ever comes first. I chose the +10 years.
2. Till the very end.

This board will porbably be here for 10+ years...... hopefully

And as for your last question, to get me off this board you'll have to drag me off kicking and screaming.
