PPBB closing down!

[rick3000]

I have never been a fan of PPBB, but I have done searches there when I am trying to solve a problem. PPBB does have some useful information if you can find it through the difficult format. It's too bad the info there will be gone, but I have found that between this site, renntech, and google I have never really needed to use PPBB.

It appears PPBB will not close down. The folks on that board are discussing ways right now to modernize the software and provide a more dependable funding source. It has been a very active board (I would guess a couple of hundred posts a day - maybe more). Admittedly, because of its format, it requires more than the occasional visit to "get it". It is more socially oriented than technical - although there are certainly technical issues discussed "ad nauseum". It has also spawned a number of annual or more frequent events around the country - such as the Blue Ridge Boxster Summit. For those of us addicted to it, it would be a great loss.

Also agree on RennTech. I also hit Babblers regularly, but don't post much there.
