The Poll Vault – R.I.P. – 3rd February, 2000 to 29th April, 2004

The delphi Poll Vault is officially closed. I closed it myself. We had 870,000+ messages there. The forum was created on 2/3/2000 at 10:04:00 PM and after 1547 days, closed today, 4/29/2004, at 11:11am. I posted 16,513 on that forum!
- a manager

*sigh*

My favourite forum (message board) just closed down. It’s like the end of an era for me…I’ve been posting at The Poll Vault since late 2000. Don’t bother clicking on the link. It’ll just take you to DelphiForums.

I just got my stats from it (one of the managers):

According to your profile you had 24,477 msgs. And you first visited on 12/10/2000. Total number of visits, 2521.

It’s very hard when your favourite place to hang out closes down. And all because of the evil DelphiForums and their modus operandi.

Anywayz, on a more positve note there is NuVault or TPV2 or now The Poll Vault over at GoJabber.com and although you might say, oh look it’s still there…it’s not quite the same, it’s like moving house.

We’re all rather down..
On a positive note, I think I actually got The Last Word at the forum…hehehehe

DelphiForums sucks :-(

  1. Sad, I hang around deviantART forums a lot. :o

  2. is that where you post your pictures and such?
    you know, i don’t have a problem when people raise their prices, i can’t expect a free ride forever.
    it’s just Delphi were rather underhanded about some other changes…i would’ve dealt better with a straight our raise in prices instead of a forcing you to choose a different type of account for a higher subscription fee to do other stuff…
    don’t know if that makes sense…

  3. I wondered what was going on. You told me about it, I went there, it was gone!!

  4. yeah…it sucks! we’ve moved tho and are at new locatiion…
