Af Is Shutting Down!!!!!!!!!!
IM NOT KIDDING! THIS FREAKIN SUCKS! TO WHO EVER THAT DOESNT KNOW YET, AF WILL BE SHUTTING DOWN! THE ANNOUNCMENT IS AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE.This freakin sucks like he**!!! AF is why i model damnit! This cant be happening!!!!! This is what one of the mods wrote below.
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.

Re: Af Is Shutting Down!!!!!!!!!!
This really sucks a big one! Most of my time is spent on AF. even though i'm a member at several other forums and helping robert out with his modeling boards, I still stay on af when i'm online, even at work!!
Well I guess I'll get to spend more time at roberts boards since it is a new forum and It was my 2nd favorite home on the web.

Re: Af Is Shutting Down!!!!!!!!!!
well surfer, there's a problem with your idea really... a mass migration could possibly cause smaller forums to collapse also... bandwidth is really expensive, and some people cant afford to have hundreds of users viewing at the same time
