I think the parent company of Worldsucking has decided to scrap Worldcrosisng. Being cpompletely down for days is no good.

Okay. So is everyone choosing this site as opposed to shua's? I thought most of us didn't like box in a box. Shua's site in case you missed it is: bbf.nfshost.com/?IgnoreDefaultPage=1Check it out if you haven't. I like the feel of it better. It resembles WC more.

Either way, I think it's officially time to move. This has been going on for four weeks now.
We certainly don't want this crap happening during the playoffs.

Agree JR. I can live with either of these sites. Just depends on where everyone settles.

Whichever one the trolls who shall remain unnamed settle, I'll be on the other one.

World Crossing is temporarily down for maintenance - it will return to operation as soon as possible.
So what qualifies as "soon as possible" for Worldsucking? Like two and a half months?

Hopefully it's not the beginning of the end...

I do kind of wonder how much longer Worldcrossing can keep going. Even though we all like the format, that is really dated forum technology they're using. I mean the old Tribune Cubs board before Wellengaged was based on WebX format, and that was 12-13 years ago. And they don't have a working search function either, which every modern forum has nowadays.
Plus they lost one of their revenue streams a year ago when they couldn't charge premium users anymore, and the free forums really don't have any advertising on them. I've really got no idea how they're making any money on this thing.
Actually I'm kind of surprised they've stayed in business for as long as they have.

Looks like we've got a new warning message from World Crossing.
We are experiencing problems with World Crossing. We will update the status by 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, December 8.

I think there's a pretty good chance Worldcrossing won't come back, at least in the same form we're used to seeing.

The search function didn't work on the Bleacher Bums Forum. However, it was still working on some other WC forums that I subscribe to.

Yep, I have a feeling we're nearing the end with WX...
Wonder if they could take Lovie with 'em?
