Kirby's Rainbow Resort

Mostly due to the state of the community, or what little exists of it, now, I've gone and disabled account registration, 99% as an anti-spam measure.

He throws in the towel after nearly ten years. Nothing of value was truly lost.

Thanks for everything, Disk.

Oh...So the registratrion disabled. And the spammers won't get in here, and there's too much members including me

Killer!

You know, I had a feeling something seemed different when I logged in this morning. I guess this would be the reason.

Nothing left to do but party into oblivion now.

Behold the freakishly wordy wall of characters(text and otherwise) I've created. So far four and soon to be more!

I see, so it's the beginning of the end. Oh wait nevermind, this place has been in a downward spiral for years.

Oh well, KRR is effectively dead.

Haha, six years later. KRR is long dead. :^)

How about, while the registration is disabled, why don't you perform cleanup of all the spam, archive the rest of the good stuff into the Museum, put everything in this era of the site into its own sub directory that states that it was a past version of a site's post, then completely clear ALL accounts AND boards, and start over? You could get new staff, get a new head admin (to replace the “founder” title person, unless they are still around and are interested in reviving the site), and advertise online everywhere (e.g. on DeviantArt) to bring Kirby fans to the site? You can also upgrade the site, like adding anti-spam features, a whole new army of moderators, better, upgraded features, etc.

Could a full revival of this website be possible? Or would it be too ambitious? Because I would REALLY like for there to be a site where Kirby fans could discuss Kirby related things and where a community can be a community (well, a website that isn't dead, anyways).

Sorry. I made that signature years ago when I was a bit dumb... I created it when my account was just a few days old (though pretty much all of my account is still as it was when it was created, with PM still disabled, need mod approval for posts, etc.) Anyways, I removed the pic, and will remove this message when you let me know you have read this. This was the only way I could figure out how to “message” you, btw. Happy Easter, Joshi.

Umm... registration has been re-enabled for years(since December 2015). Also, bringing KRR back to life isn’t as simple as you think.

The Kirby community isn’t dead, it’s just that they’re not here. Kirby Informer has over 10,000 followers on Twitter. They’ll most likely never add a forum to their site, since they have a discord server which is probably seen as the modern day substitute for message boards.

I don’t see it that way. I still see a purpose for forums in this day and age. But reviving KRR would be near impossible, so I have accepted the truth.
