I was there since 2003 and visited everyday (even had the iPhone app ... about to delete!) and I didn't even get an e-mail.
I hope they're bankrupt and fail at future endeavors.

Damn ... poof!
Leaving the Forums open would have created some bad threads, though.
Sad all that history is gone, though.

I can't believe they had the nerve to leave the store open. I get that they need to clear out inventory but I am not interested in buying anything after they just boarded up the MB with no warning. I guess the app not working makes a lot more sense now. That was the only real hint that something was truly up after all of the rumors.

so, they lock the message boards, take down instagram, disable comments on YT and no twitter. it's like they want to fall off the face of the earth. that is very strange to me.
I was there over 11 years. Didn't post much towards the end but it was a big part of my life for several years there. kind of crappy.

Yeah, dick move indeed. This is great with a like button, though! How many times was that suggested over there, and they made tons of other changes, but none that anyone wanted.

I was mostly a lurker over there, but what a dick move though I guess it was in the cards when they began selling out *sigh*

Even my kids were freaked out- my oldest actually said "but mom, who are you going to ask now?" because "I should ask the peas" is just something I've said for so long!
Asshole move, after all these years.

Does anyone know if we're screwed on classes we purchased from Wilna or Shimmile? I'm kind of hoping they honor past purchases and open content up on their own sites. I'd understand if they didn't though. F'ing two peas.

Makes me wonder if they are closing so quickly due to legal problems or IRS problems.... at least a simple apology would have been nice. Then again, they probably never RSVP birthday invitations. ;-)

I didn't always post, but I always read! Even 24 hours courtesy notice would have been nice. I actually had some kind of important information that I had bookmarked, guess it's just too bad, so sad. Bookmarks are still there for now (although site traffic may make it difficult to get to for a little while) That's appalling, but not surprising since that's pretty much what happened to us on the digi team. I am another who browsed the boards daily. I'm in the UK and really like to get the different viewpoints from other countries and politics. I would not often post (I seemed to have a habit of killing threads) but I took it all in. I've pinned my most favourite bookmarks but I'm trying to figure if there's a way of keeping the videos from the classes. I can view the source and get the vimeo link but wondering if they will delete them.

Oh I didn't get an email or anything either - I made my 10 years just this May.
ETA I saved all the pdf's from my purchased classes a few weeks ago when there were some grumblings about lack of no product and wondering if the store was going to close. You can still access those and save them to your hard drive.

I was shocked, SHOCKED I tell you! I had a moment of sadness, and then I went looking for someplace like this. Thanks for starting a new board!

Hey - they could have told us and let us vent for a couple of days (they wouldn't have had to even read the threads) and then shut it down. Just zero consideration for people is what it amounts to IMHO. Highly disappointing.

They get nothing from me. I'd be concerned if I bought something, they would intentionally send a defective product and not allow a return.
