NIM Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Hello,Anyone know what went down with Bold's forum, all of a sudden it went offline and has not returned ?As I heard before, he said that his site was hosted on some free hosting server and that it can be shutdown without previous notice, that's why his guide was hosted on WinCert..

Sull Posted August 3, 2008 Author Posted August 3, 2008 Hmm right ok.Well he had a lot of good info on stripping Windows, maybe now some users from his forum will come to WinCert Quote
Sull Posted August 3, 2008 Author Posted August 3, 2008 I noticed it was down a few days ago, good thing I had a chance to read all the good posts Quote
Bold_Fortune Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Yes, the site is gone, and will not be coming back this time. The site was actually owned by Sadie, a generous lady from England who gave me the site to further my work on Slimming Down Windows XP: The Complete Guide.She apparently let it go. And I can't blame her, she's been paying for it for over three years. The domain name was picked up by some magazine subscription service. But...... that's why his guide was hosted on WinCert.. Let your friends know about this change so N1K and WinCert can benefit from the traffic from my site. I'll be keeping my guide updated here on WinCert. Quote

Sull Posted August 9, 2008 Author Posted August 9, 2008 Hi Bold,Good to see you are here.RIP bold forum Quote
Bold_Fortune Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 To everyone's surprise, the site went back online a couple of weeks ago. Ugh! I'm just so tired of this.Most of you know that it's not actually my site, but it belongs to Sadie, a generous lady in England, who gave me the site because she believed in my work on Slimming Down Windows XP: The Complete Guide.It not actually being my site is sometimes (and too often now) very frustrating. I never know what's going on when something happens. It sure looked like it was gone for good this time when someone else had hold of its domain name. No matter, I was tired of moderating a forum. I have made the forum Read Only now. I want to get back to having fun with my computer. Quote
Sull Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 Well I am pretty sure I read close to all the pages Thanks for letting us know bold!Where do you reside now ? Quote
Bold_Fortune Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Thanks for letting us know bold!Where do you reside now ?San Diego. LOLI'm just having fun with my computer these days...figuring out this and figuring out that with it. Quote
Sull Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 I actually meant where do you reside forum wise lolIs your computer just a hobby or do you use them for work etc ? Quote
