Hello!
This is just a short message announcing the end of the site life after almost three years.
We're going to be moving on to another site concept, as RWBY fandom sites in general have not fared well with every other long runner also dying within the past year or so. ProBoards has also had a big dip in activity in general, and when we made the site it was pretty much 50/50 in terms of activity/interest between that and Jcink but over the years it has moved very heavily towards Jcink for a variety of reasons including the fact that all ProBoards skins go defunct after a few years with the new version coming out. It's simply not worth rebuilding on this platform and on this fandom, when both have less and less members every year.
I realize that people will continue to join the site/discord and not read this, but I've announced this both on discord which is likely going to stay for a bit just for posterity purposes and on this site which I'm not privating so people can retrieve characters/threads over time.
Thank you very much and I'll post another message when the new site is ready for anyone looking at this well after it was posted in case they want to jump in on the next adventure.
Public tumblr of the new site concept is here which will also have the link as well once the new site is up and running.
