[APRIL FOOLS JOKE] Important note to all coffee lounge posters (effective 04/05/2009)
Because of the recent forum upgrade, the admins and moderators have had to get together to figure out how to minimize the stress put on our already overloaded servers. Flash Kit has over 600,000 users and over 3 1/2 million posts. Flash Kit's primary goal is to offer support for popular web development tools such as Adobe products and other tools like Swish and 3D Swift3D, so it is imperitive that these forums take top priority in terms of availability.
In addition to maximum PM reduction (100 posts down to 5), the admins are temporarily disabling several forums for the entire month of April to determine if the load on the servers can be brought down to a usable level. Afterwards, a forum will be brought back every month granted the server load is minimal.
As you may have guessed, the beloved Coffee Lounge is on the list (as follows):
- Coffee Lounge (will be the last forum to be brought back online in late December to early January 2010)
- Mod Squad
- Boardroom
- Cool Sites
- Site Feedback
- Member Sites
- Photography
- The Arena
Again though, this is ONLY FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL and will begin five days from this post (April 1st, 2009).
Edit: I was reminded to ask that you check back here in a few hours for an addendum by the higher-ups.

Wow. Farewell oh yellow and blue people of the coffee lounge.
To the programming forums!!!

Wait- what now?
Surely it would be better to merge the forums which cover practically the same crap instead of losing users by cutting out entire forums?
EDIT: ME SO STUPEHD.

He has risen!
good one genny.
i totally bought it this morning until i read a couple posts above a little later in the day.
I was super angry at first.
You should have deleted their posts as they came in just so another thread could be started ranting about the closures.
