    Just tried to go on there only to discover a simple message saying it was closed. It was working fine a few hours ago.

    Anyone know what's happened>

    It's certainly his decision, but is suprisingly abrupt and doesn't seem to have any reason behing it that I can see...

    Hmm, I've clearly missed something. Whilst I didn't read all the boards, I think I've read all of the ones that might possibly have contributed.

    Any chance you could let me know some of the detail, even if it's via PM?

    I wish I knew this before hand so I can get email adresses from friends that I made from years of Wigwaming so we could keep in touch.

    It has been fun, really fun but like any party, it must be ended at some point.

    No more Hi-Fi Choice forum, no more Zerogain. It's all changed in the Internet hi-fi forum world... So where to next?

    So bully boy has done hi bi annual sulk again but thrown the toys a bit further from the pram then.

    Apart from some good chaps on there it's no big loss really.

    It will be a real shame if the Scalford show is lost!

    I have seen a suggestion in a thread on another forum that this may only be a temporary measure.

    Watch that space, should you want to.

    There's too many people who are involved in the Wam who like it too much to see it go. I'd happily run it with an iron glove, charge you all a fiver for the privilege and bin off anyone who was acting the prick.

    It'll be back, it's too big not to be. James should bin off the google ad-sense and MTFU. Set the WAM as a LTD company registered abroad and not give a rats ass about libel this and that.
