Domain has been renewed for another year

[GooRoo]

The domain containing this Forum's files has been renewed through August 2018. I hope this decision will lead to more participation and submissions. Even though I still cannot play Gruntz myself, I hope that puzzles will still be submitted by those who can play it, for the benefit of the rest of the people who have the game.

Thank you very much, GooRoo, for this decision! I think everyone who used to regularly attend this forum will be happy to know that it isn't going to go away just yet.

On a side note, I hope everything is fine with your wife and her upcoming surgery?

Yes Thanks GooRoo, for this decision

We stay hope we can play the game in win 10

The domain needs to be renewed by August 31, 2021 ... and the price has jumped to $26.99! I will make the payment before expiration, but had planned on paying a much lower rate for the renewal. Everything goes up in dollars except my income.

Well, you can see that the forum is still around, so you know that the domain has been renewed. Good for another (almost) year through August 31, 2022.

Wouldn't the forum still be there regardless of payment? Just without the images hosted on gooroosgruntz.info

The discussion forum via Proboards would still exist, but in no way recognizable as today's version. No background images ANYWHERE, and the navigation bar would not be visible ... we have seen that when there were (thankfully) temporary problems with host access. Even threads such as this one would be without buttons for formatting changes. They would exist (invisible) and could be used if one clicked in just the right place. Gaining admin access (somehow) would allow changes to revert wholly to Proboards defaults. Something to think about next year, if domain renewal did not happen.

From what I can see in the admin panel, some of the interface elements of the forum are already hosted by Proboards in the theme manager (within 50 MB of free space available). Small images like navigation buttons could also probably fit there.
