Af Is Shutting Down!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not at all amused.

AF going off line?

Automotiveforums.com is going into receivership (03-31-2004 until 05-02-2004)
I have just got off the phone to AFs founder, owner and administrator - Igor Sushko. It is with great regret that I have to inform all of you that despite last ditch attempts, two of our major sponsors are pulling the plug due to unforseen legal circumstances in relation to infringements with the 350Z project. Running a forum such as AF is rarely economical at the best of times, and it has come to the worst of times. The server will be operational until the end of this week. I am deeply saddened by this passing as this has been one of the web's best communities to be involved in.

I am still in a state of shock as this is the moment we have been trying to avoid for more than 3 weeks now. I wish everyone the best, please contact myself or Igor with anything further.

If this is the case then this message is for ALL modelers. Please visit our new model forums at http://modelmasters.proboards3.com

I actually believed it!

Is it a joke too? :lol:

Please don't feel offended! It's been a long time I've crossed over the line of mental illness!.... :lol:

How Many PM's did I get asking if it was true ?
22

Me Now:bananasmi

Yipeeeeeeeeeee

Later, Mike. :smokin:

I guess I don't get suckered that easily. No matter what the Mods said (they all made hasty replies after they "didn't believe it"-further pointing to a well-orchestrated prank), I didn't think this was anything but a well planned joke. :icon16:

It was good, it got a LOT of y'all riled up! :loser: :rofl:

Is it a joke too? :lol:


WOW your funny! I suffer from mental illness too, it's called modeling!! LMAO!.

Shit I started printing all the How Tos and copying them

OOOps!! :bloated: I apologize!... :screwy: :lol::icon16::rofl:

BAD JOKE, but very relieving to see that it IS a joke

I actually believed it!
yea, even with the message in the mod section ? :D

why is this in the inprogess threads anyways...when there is 10 pages about it on the normal section?!

i tried to tell ya...............
for real, when igor replied you really had me going!!!!
glad it's not true

And after all, I knew it was a joke...

TW*TS

Not a very good joke people, I do hope it doesn't come back and bite you in the arse!!

Don't you realise there are people in this world who would literally kill themselves over things like this. UK guys, remember when the CSA started chasing absent fathers over maintenance? There are people unstable enough to take this to heart.

:nono::nono::nono:

Not happy Neil

yeag guys, good joke

Oh man that got me good. I copied the entire Faq LOL

Watch.. It's probably a april fools joke or something...

Yeah, and a bad one, too.

damn i really thought af was gone. yeah very funny :grinno:
we better watch our backs :smokin:

I'll be waiting for next year's joke.

This is one of the funner threads I've read here. Ya'll are all suckers. Geez.

Seriously, I believed it. I don't now, nor have I ever cared for April 1st pranks. I rarely check in the mod's corner so they reeled me in as well as some of you all.

FINANCIAL/LEGAL SITUATIONS MY ASS! Should've all known better, I told you there was no way AF could get into financial problems, THERE'S TOO MANY ADS!
I like the fact that the whole situation was started by an Aussie.

yea umm... I dont feel like reading all 11 pages of this thread so is it closing or not?
