I am sorry to inform that due to circumstances beyond our control, the main domain is no longer pointing to the forum. Please look below for more information.
During the period of transition to our backup domain, we would greatly appreciate any help in letting people know that the forum is not gone and that it can be accessed through http://www.lustria-online.com
This can include informing other forum members you know, letting other Warhammer communities or sites that link to us know etc.
Also, if you notice any issues on the forum on the backup domain, please let us know by adding a comment as well.
With the current circumstances, I feel it is only fair that the community receives the full background story regarding the main domain and why it is outside the control of the community.
We took over the community back in August 2013 when the old owner "Sammy the Squib" planned to shut it down. The only thing that was not transferred over together with the forum content was the domain. The plan was that it was to be transferred to us when he could verify we acted in the interests of the community.
In the beginning, things went along good, that is until we launched the new forum design and software. At that point, things turned sour as "Sammy" did not approve/like the update. To this date, I still do not know why.
Over the years, we have tried to purchase the domain from him several times to no avail.
In hindsight, I guess we should have transferred the forum away from the main domain earlier. I just did not believe that "Sammy" would decide to "shut down" the community he created instead of transferring the domain to us or someone else that cared for the community.
