It has come as an emense shock to see the Dudez shut down, I find it hard to believe in many ways, I have been with them for many years, I wish them well

Always sad to see a well known forum name disappear, they've been around under one incarnation or another for about the same length of time as we have.

Sounds like there is a reincarnation already under way though. ;)

Sorry to see you go Kink. All your efforts were not wasted.
Thank you for everything you did. Now go and try to have a life! :toke:
I know what running a popular site involves and the effort it takes.
Take care,

shame to see the place where you put hard work in , disapears , bam , in a flash
makes you wonder why bother anymore !
sad to see the forum you love shuts down and you cant find your friends that used to nag everyday , anymore .
hope they start somewhere else (new link perhaps) , would be nice to see those familiar faces , again.

I dont think the effort is wasted mate its just times change. I am sure something similar will be back eventually. Lots of other excellent forums around including this one.

Cheers.

Sad news but there seems to be hope of a future site.

...Posted this news on another forum and got my hand slapped, for breaking a rule 'thow shall not mention another site' think this is more to do with them being scared of people finding out there are other places out there and leaving. Glad to see this site has confidence in itself to care more about the subject than protecting its own profit. Well done boys (and girls) good job done again/:cool:

Hi all,
Have to add my best wishes too....what a shame this has happened. We should be introducing more sites for our hobby NOT shutting them down. Anyway, Kink has his reasons, and Good Luck! I for one will miss the site, I don't think a day goes by without I drop in for a chat.

Maybe....he'll re-consider!

Regards,
Ray(str):-Nooo :-Nooo

Its a sad sad day for many people.

Thanks Kink for all that you have done for us , I hope some of your aspirations and values will live on in the sat world. Will a new forum arise to fill the void in our lives?Lets hope so..
If the mods and admins manage to keep something golng i am sure they will be well supported by the ex dudez membership.

Also a big thankyou to rolfw for allowing us to cry on his shoulder.

regards,
.............bladesmantwo

Toecutter has also given up the ghost

Toes and dudez were a must for the file searchers, thats half the problem I think!

But they wil be missed:-worship

Toes is still there CB, Toe has just been changing things around. :)

Satdudez is reincarnated satpimps without Kink I guess (not sure I like the name ;)), with the same members' database, but obviously a little difficult to access at the moment, as they will have a rush of the entire membership logging in to see what has happened. :)
