well, yeah
TheKoopaKingdom's post made me think about this. as well as the general decline in activity here. Kuribo64 was a fun ride, but... yeah. recentering over general discussion hasn't worked too well. doesn't help that Discord has taken over, either. urgl. people, myself included, prefer using IRC or Discord or whatever for everyday chatter. romhaxing seems to have entirely moved to Discord, so not much we can do, I think. so, what do we do with this board? ____________________ NSMBHD - Kafuka - Jul melonDS the most fruity DS emulator there is zafkflzdasd |

I know I haven't posted in a while. Its disappointing to see K64 in this state. I would love it if K64 was archived as there is quite a lot of useful SMG and SM64DS content.
You've done a great job keeping it running Arisotura! ____________________ Remember, every user has to start out somewhere,- Every time I look back at my old posts, I cringe. |

tbh, it's been through so many incarnations already. SMG2.5, SM64DS, the politicalboard (the 'shit's going down' thread resulting from the beginning of my leftisation), etc...
at this point it doesn't have much else going for it. both the SMG2.5 and SM64DS communities are entirely gone or almost. 'general discussion' isn't cutting it, either. tbh, it saddens me a bit that the board ends up this way after 6.5 years of service. but eh, it can't be going on forever. ____________________ NSMBHD - Kafuka - Jul melonDS the most fruity DS emulator there is zafkflzdasd |

Eh, I thought Kuribo64 was a nice little place to stay in.
More importantly, are we moving to Discord server now? ____________________ Netplay is a language we all speak. Here’s my Discord. Kinda constructed now where we talk about whatever and lounge around on weekends. https://discord.gg/CqMArxq |

archive and close.
Theres alot of good documentation on this board and it should be able to shown still. I think, we could do discord. But, its defiantly not going to be as popular as the board. Its worth a shot I guess. Honestly though, who still uses IRC? e |

I'm honestly going to say archive.
This board has brought me many good memories, and I love it to death, but goddamn is this place barren. Only the really really dedicated ever decide to come back here, and honestly I don't think it's worth trying to rekindle the activity if it'll take at least one week to start supporting the discussion and/or start a new discussion. We all know why it's dying, and it does make me sad, but I do think it's time for it to close down. And hey, at least we'll have a proper ending (RVLution it's been 2 years LMAO). Fuck it, I'm in the mood: USERS I APPRECIATE THE MOST (in no particular order): Isaac: we've been through a lot bro, it's been lit having you around to talk about boards Arisotura: you are probably one of the best staff i've ever met, i'm gonna miss having you around since i don't use IRC a ton, but hey, there's twitter LGM and BL: Our arguments about the best Mario characters are pretty funny, especially how we try to validate them. Also I'm the best in L4D2 don't DM me gridatttack: three t's is still fucking stupid, but goddamn talking to you about gc controllers was really rad, and I hope we eventually play smash, maybe in ultimate? shibboleet: you are a special kind of weird, but it's a really nice kind of weird, you are just pretty fuckin funny too Thierry: oh you know it honey (no offense if you're not on here, you're probably really cool) ____________________ still i remember that rainy september discord: salty#1212 photobucket  |

somebody tell mega-mario we need a kuribo rewind (= ヮ =)～♪
Posted by Arisotura oh, general chat doesn't keep up activity simply because the board's identity lies within ROMhacking. it's what draws people in, so to speak. general is a side-dish. it's pretty clear at this point the board's lifespan end is at hand, but hey. it's not too bad. it's been a good run. I'm happy to see it go with a surge rather than let it die out. |

There's been a few rom hacks in active development that still have a somewhat active thread here. I think it would only be fair to give the OPs of those threads time to announce where we can further follow their progress. After, you could think about archiving. ____________________ ![[image]](http://backloggery.com/anthe/sig.gif) |

I don't see why it should be taken as a fatality to close it.
Like you can let it open, so at the same time it will keep going whatever the activity, and at the same time "archived" as people can access previous contents. I still don't get why people like to destroy what they build for years, like wars. ____________________ ![[image]](https://image.ibb.co/cz7Sdy/Join_USToday_SIGN.png) ![[image]](https://s10.postimg.cc/djkm6dm0p/SIGN.png)

also, re: IRC
I'm against the forced march of progress for the sake of progress, especially if it means we dump something that is open and allows anyone to make their own server or client, in favor of a completely proprietary and closed-down solution (the fact they rage about users customizing their interface should say a lot) anyway, taking note of your posts there ____________________ NSMBHD - Kafuka - Jul melonDS the most fruity DS emulator there is zafkflzdasd |

I wish I had more in common with you guys that I could meaningfully post here some more.
Because I like some of you guys, but I can't absorb any info from large posts. And I'm not into/haven't done that many mutually interesting things. But I will Discord some of you guys and maybe have Netplay sessions every now and then. ................ But yeah this place has got good hacks and great documentation on such hacks. I'd want to download this archive if it ever happens for local use. This is one for the harddrives. ................ We could try using IRC or Mastodon. I hear Mastodon is another good social platform. But any platform's good or bad, depending on how you use it. ____________________ Netplay is a language we all speak. Here’s my Discord.

wow... kuribo finally takes its end, huh?
i can't believe it, really. never thought about it much. but wow. i can't even make myself choose an option, i just don't want this to happen that bad. not that i don't want to participate in like the last k64 poll, but that i just can't make myself come to terms with the fact that there even is a last. (this is, of course, assuming someone doesn't make a new thread with a poll) i was originally writing a really long thing but i realized that's probably better suited for my bio. so uh, check that out, if you want. i think it's nice. with that being said... i'll miss occasionally checking this place at school. as much as i'd like for there to be a k64 discord server, i uh, don't think arisotura really wants to, considering their response to swingball. plus, it really, really wouldn't be the same. can't believe i'm gonna be saying goodbye to the site i never knew i lurked soon. gonna miss you all. ____________________ hat's off to you, kuribo64. we all had one hell of a--wait, we can stay? |

that being said, right now nothing really prompts to archive the board
that will happen if either a) I end up unable to regularly maintain the board, or b) it becomes so inactive that the only posts are spambots neither of which are the case for now. so dunno ____________________ NSMBHD - Kafuka - Jul melonDS the most fruity DS emulator there is zafkflzdasd |

I'm glad that you're taking this serious look at the future of the board. I pretty much agree with everything that has been said so far, that, as a general discussion board, Kuribo64 can't really be what it once was. Having said that, it's been an amazing run. The fact that this board has seen two iterations of hacking scenes over 6 years is remarkable. Another factor (kinda indirectly) stated is that, the traditional idea of a "forum" is a dying breed. Taking a quick look at board2 and Kafuka, they seem to be doing alright-ish, and then most other boards of this kind have died out. Unfortunately, I'm inclined to say that this not as much of the game scenes themselves dying, but just the idea of these boards losing traction, with the most board-y forums being out there being Discourse.
Discourse, in my experience, is smooth and easy to use. But it still lacks the feeling of using a board, and having the stability of easily seeing all of the threads, and deleted posts. K64's board software is, easily, the most intuitive and fast forum I've ever used, which I'm going to miss. To touch upon the more sentimental stuff I mentioned in my original reply, even if it doesn't appeal to me anymore, these forums still do mean a lot to me. If they do go, then it would be sad to see, but it's been a great run regardless. ____________________ Website | Twitter
