    In this thread here: http://www.wordforge.net/showthread.php?p=1425980#post1425980

    Nick has forcast the closing of Wordforge. In post number 39, he states,
    My friends, please don't let us go into that good night knowing that I never got my sixth and final shiny green pip. I'm close, so very close, to getting there on my own, but I need your help. Together, we can cure this horrible condition of me only having five shiny green pips.

    Now, I'm not going to be a charity case. I'm offering a trade. For each posrep I receive within the next 24 hours, I will give two posreps. Call it interest on the loan of rep you are making.

    For the record, I think Nick is full of shit, but just in case he isn't, I want to make six shiny green pips before the end of the board. It's all that I have in life these days, what with my only rolling 19s and whatnot.

    Please, please help. God bless.

    I can think of no worthier cause.



    Oh and please give my two pos-reps to whomever posts next.

    I'm sure Nick is just bummed by the continuing technical glitches. But I know boards (running the same software) that are waaaaay more messed up and keep running for years. That's why vBulletin rocks.

    WF seems likely to endure.

    Yes, I'm being a rep whore. But I'll probably get more than enough negs to make up for it.

    Rep whoring threads are a great WF tradition!

    But I wouldn't worry about Nick's prediction. Already this morning, he probably sees things differently. WF isn't going anywhere in the near future.

    I hope... :unsure:

    Possibly. Regardless, I expect WF will be around a long time. Not long enough for me to advance to full greenieness, mind you (the sun will supernova before that happens) but JCD should be fine.

    ^Agreed 100%. No one would double-post in a thread like this one, pretending it was a rep-whoring thread, just to get rep...

    ...at least, no one who was in their right mind. Which leaves me out! :banana:
