I've been organizing my various web projects and I've decided to remove all dead weight- unfortunately, this includes GWSCR.
As such I will be shuttering this property by December 1, 2017 (GMT-5).
I will upload the database's "posts" table to make migration easier, should the people still involved want to migrate to another service, which shouldn't be too difficult considering phpBB is open-sourced software.

Strongly against reddit as it's a very bad platform to have any sort of extended discussion. Would also be annoying to manage the tables/threads.

In that case, someone would have to take over a forum of some sort. Sadly, has is on vacation until the end of November. Any ideas?

If Has wants to do it I think we can live with a bit of downtime.

I'm back on the 27th.
If the community is ok, I can setup some space on fbgmguild.com (records.fbgmguild.com?).
I can set things up (boards and database) but I'll want some help to fine-tune and moderate everything.
Admin, any chance for you to upload the full phpbb folder? It would be nice to start from that instead of nothing, and there's a chance we can keep the theme.

I read OP again. Is your intention to upload only the posts part of the database? meaning we'll lose all accounts?
Why not everything? Privacy?
Anyway, and this is to everyone, I don't have time to spend days hacking at this, and I'm terrible with databases, so don't count on me too much to make it work

Go for gwscr.fbgmguild.com imo, so people that google "gwscr" have an easier time finding it. Idk if the admin even checks back for this thread.
If you do: Please provide haskhasin with as much stuff as you possibly can...
