Default Metal Meet Account suspended

I also have an account on the Metal Meet Forum. I went to go to the site today and I get "This account has been suspended". I got no email or warning as to why just wondering if this has happened to anyone else?

It's not your account, it's the website itself.

So does anyone know anything? Is the site finished? Will it come back? Not the same there as it once was. There was still a lot of good info archived.

The guy that put me onto allmetalshaping.com also mentioned metalmeet.com and I found it was dead in February last year so it's been gone a while so I guess the members now mentioning it haven't visited it regularly.

Dave, it has been off line for a few hours on and off as the owner - administrator has been very ill. I haven't heard anything other than that, although it appears that it's over - at least for now.

Oh dear lots do good information. Locked up or lost.
There should be some way of being perpetual
But costs and govt rules. Make saving these sites impossible unless they have a benifactor or committee. To fund raise.

There was a post on their FB group that the owner is ill and is not covering the hosting costs any longer. Folks are discussing ways to raise the $500 hosting fee for the site, including a gofundme.

I have inquired about purchasing the site outright, if for no other reason than to keep its repository of information available for folks to reference. So far, no response.
