"Look your last now, because the face of the TV Forum is changing forever...as of the end of March."
I'm not going to lie, I am shocked, surprised and saddened about the decision to close down the forum, but I completely understand your reasoning, Asa.
For the short time that I've been here, being a member of this forum has been a blast.
I joined this website two years and ten months ago just to post a video on a newly created "TV Breakdown Appreciation Thread" of a protest that happened on "The Time The Place" back in 1995, in good ol' 144p.
I've thought I would only make a few posts here and there, but I've been quite active on here since, wherever it was posting a new clip onto the breakdown thread, or having a conversation about who a singer might be on a Masked Singer thread, I have enjoyed my time here and I thank everybody else here for creating such an enjoyable experience.
I've looked back at some old threads on here in the past and this website has definitely had some history, it's incredible how a lot of those users who were involved in those older threads 15-20 years ago are still here and active on this site today.
My most kudoed post on here was me sharing my "coming out story" when Phillip Schofield came out as gay on national television, the support I and a lot of people got for sharing their stories was nothing short of amazing, easily my proudest moment on this forum. (You can find that post on my profile, if the ability to view profiles is gone by the time this forum closes, it's on the locked "This Morning" thread along with many other, amazing stories from p.148 onwards)
And of course, how could I forget thanking you, Asa, this forum was a great place for discussing all things TV presentation, from what I've heard on this thread, you've throughout the years "thrown the kitchen sink" at making sure this website performs to the best of its ability.
Sure, most of us say that in the past, we've had our disagreements, but every time I look at this website, I look at a welcoming place where we're all just talking about an event that's just happened, a new ident, breakdowns or some absolute rubbish that's on the telly!
Anyways, this post has gone on for long enough, it's been great fun here and I'm going to miss sharing a new/old breakdown clip or rambling on with others about a new Masked Singer episode.
If this forum does find a new home, I'll be sure to meet you all there, but for now, I'm going to live every last minute of this website along with everybody else here.
Thank you for the memories, everyone and Asa.
