Bolt.com is Closing in April.

[░▓░]

Got a note from Bolt_Restarter and the re$ource$ needed to maintain the Ning account will exhaust in April.

Take care, guys.

This is the bottom line, right here. Bolt basically did itself in. Maybe a series of bad choices as Meow pointed out, but the end result is still the same. And then, maybe there wasn't much to work with either. Finding worthy people to volunteer for a job like that is about like finding hair on a frog. j/s

I badgered him and the Ning network about doing something and I got an answer.

Restarter didn't go into detail about his reason/reasons, and nor did I feel he needed to justify his action to me, but he is making a serious investment of his resources for a community that doesn't appreciate his effort. Pretty sure the Jer incident evaporated whatever trust he had in Bolters maintaining the site.

The site has been mismanaged under numerous hands and hasn't been very fruitful either.

It will be a great and fantastic shock when attempting to access bolt, regulars get a 404 error.

But there will be a phoenix reincarnation (again), but not in Isaah06's control.

Ask him to sign it over to me. Can't see that being a problem, it frees him of any debt or obligation.

I am starting to agree with Isaah06 on this matter, considering sometimes he's heavy handed, but so far has been unbiased on it. And What happened with Jer is unfortunate, it hurts our community a lot worse. Man...restarter should have talked to us..at least you're still talk to him that's a plus. I wish we could talk to him again and tell him we do apperciate this site.

Bolt's disappeared before; Imagine how quickly bolt4 would sink if ppl with mental/drugs problems were in control?

For the life of me, or anyone else for that matter, I can't figure why ur even here. 

Musta fell off the bobbing turd wagon at just the wrong time. 

If you are an old boltee as you claim, must be the bottom of the turd barrel.

I still say doing a Bolt Tumblr thing could be a good idea. Have a main one, like b0lt.tumblr.com or something where we could put a list of individual member's profiles and have specific tags for things, like #tagbook, #forum, #boltphoto etc. I dunno. It makes a lot of sense, and I've already said I'd set it up if enough people were interested. I think the fact that Tumblr has a lot of it's own shit that we could reblog and use as prompts for discussions, tagbooks, etc would help out, since a lot of people here don't really like posting OC and just want to comment on/discuss shit.

[iaininlondon]

Just go and set it up kntits, then you'll find out if ppl are interested

Ok I made this real fast, if anyone's interested:
