I think the SHF is now TOTALLY lost. The domain was up for registration again so I tried to register it in hopes of resurrecting the forum but was beat by another person probably by a few minutes. Now the domain is pointing to a parked page.

I thought we didn't care about the domain so much as the content, which was possibly gettable. Failing that, we were going to focus on recreating said content here, ala SH characters would never say, etc... So I don't see the problem with the domain name going away AlexY: Sweet graphic!

So I don't see the problem with the domain name going away The domain name was a huge issue as it's the domain many members knew and always came back to, so obtaining it would have been a huge step to restarting the community and trying to get it back on track. This would definitely have ensured most of the old members would return, this is quite clear as 1) most people don't know about this current forum, 2) the old forums had a couple 1000 members whereas this one has just over 100 and it's been up for months. This forum can simply not replace the old forum and now with the domain name gone, the possibility is even further away.

Well, I think in time we can build this forum up. We have a respectable amount of threads, and the action here is keeping up. Also, we are unruly heathens still, so that sets us apart. Right? Perhaps we have lost a great deal of our history, but were just gonna have to start a new one. If our lost members search enough, they may find us still. We cannot lose hope! Nobody panic ok?! NOBODY PANIC!!! [/size] NOBODY FUCKING PANIC!!![/color][/b]

Holy Shit it's got no eyes! *Panics* Seriously though, this forum has had a lot of hard work and effort put into it. Even though there are plenty of other SH forums out there, this one feels like home. We're like one big happy SH family and all we need to do is stick together and keep making this forum better. *Vomits from all the cheeze*

The domain has been ri-registered by someone at the beginning of october nonetheless. I've tried to get it just a few mins ago. BUT since it's dead anyway, I'm trying to get in touch with the company and the guy. I want that forum back, for samael's sake >_<

Crimson makes maths fun =D Vampire-I think the forum is gone for good now. I don't think the current domain holder is going to give up the slot for a dead forum, sad but true.

Hello friends. I was a member at the old SHF for couple of years under the same name I'm using here and I do recognize few names in this thread. I never posted much there so I don't expect anyone to remember me. For some reason I never really liked silenthillforum.com, I never viewed it as an alternative to our forum and I had no desire to register there. I can't believe it never occurred to me that I could simply google "what happened to SHF". That is exactly what I did few minutes ago, and here I am now writing my first post.
I have a question and I hope it's ok that I'm asking it here. How can I use a custom avatar? I tried pasting the URL to the picture I want to use in in my profile under the "Avatar URL" option but that didn't work. Do I have to have certain number of posts before I can use a custom avatar, or is there some box or field that I'm not seeing that needs to be ticked?
