Let me get back to you on that one.

...actually, a couple of my friends might have the time. Any volunteers?

Ok, maybe if you showed some of the members the forums, they would join and become mods. Not sure how much time we have before this shuts down though.
 
Let's give it until next week. If anyone is seriously interested by next week in creating a new site, PM me and we can discuss further. This could still be a joke.

The forums definately are NOT free.

You have to buy this domain, which costs about $15 a year, give or take $10

You also have to buy a server, and depending on the space limits, that can cost up to I believe $100 a year.

I'm pretty sure it costs more than that for PB to remain up. The domain price is about $15, but I think that is only a one time thing. I never had to renew just the domain for my site. I only have to renew the server costs I pay.
 
Funny stuff is funny. The people saying that this is obviously a joke are the ones who are deep down thinking that WPM is seriously going to shut down the site.

Guys, something will happen. Whether or not the forums will shut down, WPM has a plan of some sorts. So everyone should just be patient and wait for next week.

Why not put a ad that says, "Please donate to PokeBeach. We are losing money. Please help."

I wish it was that simple. You probably have to pay to put that up, and to get it set up with PayPal.
 
This is an amazing Forum. I've been proud to be a part of it, no matter what. I respect your decision, Jon.

dmaster out.
 
So even you believe it, dmaster? This is looking pretty serious (if we ignore the Zelda stuff and de's wonders of MS Paint)

POKEVORTEX, if you create a new forum, lemme be a mod. Or on the trading council.

Maybe. I have to consider age, dedication, activity and a lot more. I don't know if I am up for being the administrator, but I might be a super mod.
 
As much as I don't want it too, I'm pretty sure that this'll shut down too. I reeall REALLY don't want it too, but WPM dosen't have all the money in the world. And if this does close, we don't need to make a new forum, just migrate to another Pokemon forum or someplace like that.
 
Yeah, but how do we get everyone over there? Would WPM approve?
Also, what would we do about currently active RPGs? Just repost every stage of them, throughout hundreds of pages?

Post a big summary and then continue, or have a fresh new start?
 
For the last time, this is not true. You guys will believe everything the mods will say. They're just joking with you guys. Messing with your heads. If the forum was really going to end, would they be acting like this? Also it even says :

forum is going to be thrown away next week anyway so I might as well have fun before the end. :p

The ":p" kinda shows that this is a joke. WPM would make a front page news report if this was really going to happen. Hes just playing around with the features and you guys with this stuff.
 
I guess. Still pretty tedious. Good job I summarise each mission/chapter in the front post of my RPG. I wonder if others would.
I have concluded that surely WPM will sort something out. It might take time, but PB will return in another form one day. If he doesn't do something about it, we can. Let's just wait until next week and find out.
EDIT: Doubly ninja'd. I still meant the same thing R.E. RPGs.

Yeah, but this whole thread is kind of glum. The Mods normally would post nonsense hints to get us with our crazy guesses. But that isn't happening this time. Our only hint is the message right next to the Search, really.
 
^Hey hey hey. Don't be taking stuff off of my profile comments :p

If something will happen, then it happens. If WPM thinks it's the best decision to close the forums, then people should stop complaining about it and just let him do what he wants. It's his site after all. Sure it would be disappointing, but I'm sure WPM has a plan to make it up to us (like someone said, he could be building another forum).

Umm, ok.
/me runs again.
/me 's legs are getting tired, so I stop by a tree and take a swig of water

I still agree and meant pretty much the same thing.
