Strag, I understand your perspective and it's valid. Still, there's nothing stopping this community from continuing to do its own DOTY awards.

Here is where the original thread was of PipChick asking for help (which multiple people did step up): https://www.unitedcardists.com/viewtopi ... 8b0773ed97

Then all of a sudden it's announced that it's being hosted and "collabed" with P52: https://www.unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?t=17707

Wow, that was a wild trip down memory lane.

Thanks strag for finding that. I too remember plenty of people offering pipchick help and now history got rewritten into she was doing this alone and begging for help and nobody helped so she quit and disappeared. Quite bizarre tbh.

Crickets, I'm assuming, hu?
Unfortunately, yes. Crickets.

I'll still throw out a ping here and there, but I really have no way to predict or anticipate what happens next. As others have noted, Alex has fulfilled the Limbo project with little fanfare from him before or after, whereas the technical difficulties we have experienced with UC we had to figure out on our own. On the other other hand, somebody somewhere paid a bill or two in order to keep the servers at Hostgator serving, and keep the domain name domaining, so the train is still running on its tracks for the time being. And, to be fair, that's all been Alex's doing.

As y'all who have been following the situation know, your humble admins and moderators (and super special friend behind the scenes) are making sure to do what we can to keep UC a going concern while Alex is otherwise unavailable, but hopefully we will regain contact with him soon and he and his family will be okay and we can all breathe a sigh of relief that all is well once again, and peace returns to the valley.

Thanks for the prompt!

I have a feeling that the payments are set up automatically. I’m hoping they were done manually but my assumption is it’s a card on file charged at regular intervals until it expires or is cancelled.

Hoping otherwise though and that Blind Tiger is revealed soon.
