That's a thought. That is sort of what happened on another site I frequent, when the original owners decided to quit.

I'm starting to think this is the only solution.

This is what I was thinking, but I thought it might be too terrible to suggest. However, as the days go on and the spam keeps piling up at an unstoppable rate, it's looking more and more like this may be our only option.

If you built it, we will come.

I don't post here anymore, but I would love a new board.

I don't post a lot, but I like to check in every once in awhile and find out what's going on in the wider Greek world. I can't do that here anymore, so I would welcome a new board too.

CharlieDean 09-10-2015 10:45 AM

I agree, and would love a new board.

Munchkin03 09-10-2015 10:48 AM

Okay! I've never started a board before...how do you do it???

misscherrypie 09-10-2015 10:50 AM

I would also love a new board.

Ditto! Though I will admit I also have no idea how one goes about creating a message board... :(

I agree... I don't post much either, but visit regularly to read updates. It should be fairly easy to create one on something like proboards, maybe? It's a slightly different setup than this one, but should still work.

I'm amazed at how spambots flock here. Maybe a new board could be called Greektalk.com or something like that?

thetalady 09-10-2015 12:04 PM

After paying to support this site for the next 5 years, it pisses me off, but I reluctantly agree that moving might be best.

Munchkin03 09-10-2015 12:19 PM

It just devolved from Michael Kors bags to swastikas and black magic.

It's like a rat-infested home we have to abandon.

Is there any copyright infringement with taking recruitment stickies and reposting them?
