What happened to Wigbl?

Post by tekedi »

Does anybody know what happened to the Wigbl-forum (Women in gloves boots & leather)? Assuming the guy who kept it up just decided to call it quits without noticing anyone? :???:

Got a link you checked? Or a time you last visited it, and where approx? I believe it moved around a little, from Yahoo Groups to its own domain to DelphiForums.com where we sorta had backup Summer 2010.

WIGBL was closed by the admin, in the last posts on this forum he wrote that he has enough of fighting against hackers attacking the forum. It is possible that there were some other reasons, as of today nothing indicates that it should return :)

Thanks for the response. Be sure to get back if you remember any more details we can use for reconstruction.

That is indeed the right url, but I'm getting a malware warning from the current page, so better to only access it through the Wayback Machine:

Thanks, I guess I missed those final posts during the summer. It's a shame since there was a cloud with loads of good videos etc.
