Not just falling apart as in loading slower or ceasing to function, but also that there are unpatched exploits and we're increasingly being hacked - it just happened again a couple of weeks ago.

So if our motivation is just to keep stuff running, I think it should be akin to picking up a new Camry to replace our 25 year old Camry, rather than updating to an ES500h.

For example, I'm on rivianforums.com. It doesn't look that different to RS:
https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/f...an-r2-forum.8/
Yeah the software literally HAS to be replaced now. It should have been long ago, but it kind of went unnoticed for a long time. But now it's under attack constantly, so the vulnerabilities have to go. I have done what I can to keep it up for now

The new software is basically still a forum layout. It still works in the same way, with forums, threads, replies. We're not switching to like inline replies or chat based or anything like that. Still a forum, just modern.

I'm all for keeping RS a private forum till it dies.

We're all still here because this is the format we are comfortable with and like. I'm positive that switching to a different channel of communication (discord, fb group, reddit sub) would basically be the end of RS as we know it. There may be new people that join and the name is kept alive, but it wouldn't be the same anymore. All the other forums i've been in over the decades that switched to FB group have just become people posting pictures and selling stuff. there are basically no real discussions, just very surface level comments (and bots/trolls) for the post of the day and that's it. Let the kids have their thing, this is what we got

Having said that, there's nothing to stop people from creating their own discord channels and reddit subs if they feel it's viable (while we keep the forum). but i dont think a lot of users would migrate.

And let's be real: there's only one in particular that really matters.



GLOW's gratuitous jizzing is the heart and soul of Revscene.

That happens on one of my Macs but not the other. Haven't tried to A/B test what the difference is. Could be Chrome vs Safari e.g..

It's happened to me in the past and sometimes now on my phone but I haven't had that problem in a long time on my Mac/Safari.

When you're logged out, try clicking on an actual forum link (off topic or whatever), it usually logs you back in and fixes the issue.

Hmm, nope doesn't work for me. Fuck even as soon as I clicked reply on this I was logged out.

I am using a Macbook/chrome, perhaps it's Apple or Google fucking me over.

Edit: happens on Safari as well.
