Site to be shut down

almost 11 years

Unfortunately, Google decided to shut down the Adsense anyhow. I've asked for an appeal, but if they do not reply by the end of the month, I will be shutting down the site. Thanks for the good times, but I suppose it's time for me to move on.

I'm not going to listen to any further suggestions of anyone that recommends selling the site to a gambler is a good idea.


Awice > nothing


Fucking idiotic, do you really want a dead site ran by a gambler just to justify a site staying up for a tiny period until he tosses it away?


can you please tone the pessimism down thank you we're trying to find solutions here

If I were Lucid I'd take Derfel's $20,000.

In addition, I doubt lucid's in this for the money. It's only fair to him that if he feels the site's done, then it's done.


But he doesn't feel that he's done with it. He just has no other option right now. He's not shutting down the site willingly.

Why does his being a gambler have anything to do with it?

Extending the life of the site for another month via donations would be the most optimal option right now. And then we'll have a whole month to brainstorm ideas on what to do next, and wait for Google's appeal to go through.

Google isn't going to take a month to decide. 2 weeks, at most. However selling the site isn't a good idea because it's going to massively decay and eventually die.

I'm in for for an Awice/Derfel partnership.

This makes much more sense, thank you. I'd still say not to donate just yet until things are worked out, since this isn;'t a case of where your money will garuntee to save the site.

Any mentions of 'site buyouts' is horrible, any idea of Kickstarting shows unawareness of how Kickstarter works.
