Announcement about RDF

[I'm With Stupid]

I don't want to know how Hitler will react when he gets the news...

Lol, it took me a while to get that.

I don't want to know how Hitler will react when he gets the news...

What with the loss of HD-DVD, the lamers of Modern Warfare 2 and the reaction to Kanye West, I think Hitler will go mental about this incident. The man really needs his own YouTube channel.

Update: We had intended to leave the forum fully-funtioning for 30 days, but due to the inappropriate posts by some users and moderators, we have decided to leave the forum in a read-only state. You can still download and archive your posts and private messages, but the ability to enter new posts has been disabled. It's unfortunate that it had to come to this. We know that change can be difficult and sometimes frightening, but we are all very excited about the direction of the website and the future.

There you go - all over in the space of a couple of hours, as I thought it would be.

Unfucking believable. I'm flabbergasted. I'm so sorry for everyone.

Who exactly are the "we" that are excited? Because as far as I can tell it's just the people behind the idea who won't listen to everyone else shouting back that it's a horrible idea.

May they rot in the non-existent hell.

(Still going to save some of my favorite threads though!)

RDF seems to be completely down at the moment.

The most important question to be asked amidst all this confusion is: who will archive all the Blue-Butterfly nuclear put-downs of drive-by creationists?

I wonder if they're still quite as excited?

The future's a bright and prosperous and wonderful thing. And there's no room for you in it. You have 30 days to vacate the premises. And by "30 days", I mean "10 minutes".

Not as many comments regarding Topsy's post as I thought there would be.

Maybe people didn't read it all the way through.

The bit about them getting rid of all the current staff?

Edit: snap with Ayaan.

Looks like it's being quoted over there now.....

This post seems to capture the essence of what the RDF staff was told.

Err hi!

That was me. I just registered here because of all that nonsense.

Hi 95, recognize me???? So glad to see you here.
They killed our game :pissed:

Oh shit, you're right. Does Cali even know yet? O_O

He's posted so much amazing information. It will be hard to save it all.

Hackenslash, what are you going to do about the "book of RDF"? I thought it was a brilliant idea ....
