Corrine Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 This should take a few people down memory lane, especially Eric. Lockergnome Help Forum Closure. The Linux forum was huge there. It was nice that Aryeh mentioned SNF. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Yep. Aryeh is right. The landscape of online communications is definitely evolving. I was a Gnomie from way back. I was a participant and reader of Chris P.'s original Lockergnome site and his email newsletter. That was a long time ago... 2000-2001 or so. Edited April 11, 2015 by V.T.

securitybreach Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I was never really active at the board but I did know of it and used it as a resource. Sorry to hear that it is going away. Does anyone know why the forum is closing? Also that was very nice of Aryeh to mention our forum but then again, I would of been surprised if he didn't 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for mentioning Scot's Newsletter Forums as well as other good forums. Sad day to lose another forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlim Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Truthfully, I'm surprised the lockergnome forum hung on as long as it did. zlim left the building/forum quite a few years ago and moved on to more active forums. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Chris Pirillo seemed to lose interest in his tech support kingdom and become much more interested in his Youtube Vlog world over the years, probably because it's where he makes his most income from Google.

goretsky Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Hello, It was a business decision by Chris. But, yes, the forum wasn't generating anywhere near the traffic it did the first few years of operation. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goretsky Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hello, Strangely enough, the site is still up. I wouldn't suggest posting anything, though, if you are concerned about its permanence, though. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Maybe leaving it up for archival purposes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
