Everything that begins, ends.
Every will that fights, bends.

At this point, there is nothing we can do about it. Thanks for your time, money, and patience, Nate. I just wish I would've clicked ads and posted more.

You know, there may be a list of 100 other top writings sites, but I guarantee you none are quite like this one.

So long.

P.S.
I direct everyone's attention to the emergency email compilation thread I am about to make in the lounge. That way we won't have to directly tell each other and/or scrounge through 20+ profiles just to find an email address...

NOOOO!!!

I've only just started here. I will be searching for funding. I will not allow this site to go. It is so great to have younger peoples input inot my work. you are all my target audience. I will not allow this to happen. There must be a way. Everyone!! Write Oprah quick. She is our only hope. I have a few sites i could check on. Maybe i could scrounge up some funds. We need this site. For all the young writers everywhere.




If i cant save the site here is another one you can use. www.absolutewrite.com/forums
I use it along with this one. A last resort. We must save this site!!

I. Think. I'm. Going. To. Be. Sick... This really has been a bad month!!! Oh my gosh! Just yesterday I found out my favourite show (Surface) has been cancelled, and now this! This is the best writing web-site out there (let alone for us younger folk)! We'll be all alone again!! I seriously feel sick... Too much shock... Ugh! The apocalypse is coming, I swear! My smartie, OCD friend is failing a class, the slacker boys are all passing, good shows are being cancelled and shows like "My name is Earl" are being picked up for more seasons! And now, the internet is falling, too...
Please! Is there anything we can do???

YWS shutting down = 4/5 of the internet shutting down.

In my opinion, anyway...
I'm still going to keep YWS in my Firefox toolbar.

My mind is blank. I don't really know how to react, or what to feel. However the situation is understandable. Truly the net will be somewhat of a different experience, but...ah well, Sayonara!

I haven't been to YWS in... a very very long time. So may aswell log in one last time, for old time's sake.

So i'll keep it short and sweet. Goodbye YWS.

This is a sign of the apocalypse, if I've ever seen one. That and seeing a YWS go more than one poll without making Bob Buchanon as a choice.

The end is seriously Nigh. MUST USE EMOTICONS!!!!
