^ ‘I think this whole discussion is completely pointless’

Yes correct, that is what you said January 2022.

Big knockers

Giant vibrator is one of them

Which will go first.... Twitter/X or the forum?   

Abandoned sites and old fora are a growing thing, there are old client businesses of mine whose websites are still up though they went bust years ago. The administrator doesn't take it down and the ISP doesn't catch up for a while.

I'm progressively deengaging online anyway as I age so the slow fading of the site kind of works for me.

The forum seems to have a life of its own. It keeps ticking over with a few well informed posters and lots of others that just read the comments. It would be useful to have the ability to quote and to post pictures. I'd like to see the return of 'the narcissists' and their well turned out 'rigs'.
I don't care about the 'look' of the forum. May be it has become 'classic'. It's the content that is all important to me.

Great to hear from the founder FNB himself!

The wardrobe side is not what it was though. I quite enjoyed that too

Ah yes, forgot about those. Yes, for some members their inboxs are full and can't be cleared. Would be nice to see this place up and running again, far preferable to Instagram which can feel very temporary and superficial.

There are decades of archival photos posted on here which would be great if they could be viewed again (old adverts, vintage finds, scans etc).

Dont thank me yet...

I couldnt find a message with your registered email. If you still would like, please send to filmnoirbuff@gmail.com.

I understand that Punbb is enjoying something of a renaissance but the problem isnt whether we could easily use a different software, the problem is that there were so many software shortcuts and modifications taken for the initial forum that to transfer without losing large amounts of both private and public data will prove difficult.

Hi FNB, Any news re updates to the site? The Talk Ivy is dying a death and needs an injection of something to revive it

Nice one old chum.  It’s really the one forum I visit, albeit sporadically.

At the moment I have no updates. Still working on it but no updates. We could start a new forum but that'd nuke everything we have here and that's why this is seemingly taking forever.

FNB asked:
"Incidentally, would members prefer a fix for this forum or an entirely new forum?"

A fix. It was once the star of the menswear forums and it can be again.
