Ugh, long time coming IMO. The issue removing pictures was the last straw. MP may not be perfct but it has a ton more features I like an easy ability to subscribe to threads). For all the trolls on this site, its a minor issue when compared to ST. |

i remember spending at least a day or two at work reading first hand accounts about the Yosemite Weed plane... those were awesome days at work! |

Does someone know if a law has changed or something regarding Internet forums? It seems like one of the other sites I check out sometimes also went down recently, Redriverclimbing.com. It now just has their online guidebook. |

It seems like one of the other sites I check out sometimes also went down recently, Redriverclimbing.com. It now just has their online guidebook. The DMCA has been around for over 20 years, so no nothing has changed other than more people violating copyright law and more people sending DMCA takedown notices. |

I doubt it was any DMCA takedown notices. That's all B.S. They simply never gave much of a shit about the forum and finally decided to end it. No real reason. The haphazard way they managed it is evidence enough to show that. |
|
If one does not care much, it probably takes very few DMCA notices. Why pay a lawyer to maintain something like that? |

The saddest thing is that I haven't seen anyone actually thank macnamara for hosting for so long. And we wonder how millennials became the way they are... |

William R wrote: Yes, it did. I think I still have it. I'll go check. It was a little cheesy, but a fun read for a climber, good airplane material when you have a large person squeezed up next to you |

M Sprague wrote: haha, that would be great if you can find it. I would love to know what its called so I could read a copy. |
|
I didn't find it yet (three generations of books in my house in shelves and boxes, lol), but googling it I am pretty sure it was Angels of Light by Jeff Long |
