I haven’t been here all that long, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed PHF. Everyone has been great and I’m really sad this community might disperse. ? Definitely hope it might continue with someone else taking over, but @Skinny Legend leaves mighty big and glamorous shoes to fill. Best of luck to you- I can only imagine the responsibility and effort it’s taken. If it does entirely close up shop here, I hope we can migrate elsewhere or somehow keep in contact!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this is the best forum, from the trading, our fanmade covers, music news, i like this comunity, i know it's kinda toxic as late but there are other ways, like filtering the new members like atrl or lanaboards :(

This is absolutely heartbreaking, but I completely understand why you've gotta do this @Skinny Legend. All I can say is thank you for the memories and all the great times here. I hope someone else will take the reigns so we can continue this legend, but if this is the last months we've got, then so be it. Love you forever and hope your life treats you well.

As far as the discord goes, everyone but active traders were basically kicked from it, so I don't know that that is the move. I can help you set up one for the general public if you'd like :)

Wow! What an outpouring of support! I really didn't expect this many comments when I made this thread. Why couldn't y'all have been this active when PHF was still alive :yeah: 

@Ruthless Love, was lowkey hoping you'd offer to take over as admin :cackle: I think you'd do a great job!

@Marin, I'm so glad PHF could help you and you enjoyed all the masterposts <3 Back when I still had iTunes I loved that section too even though I don't download music now! I think if we kept the forum open but disabled registration the forum may just die even more quickly tbh :'( Without new members coming in I think things would just fall off and no one would be here anymore except me and @Cypher :yeah: 

@Moonchild, you've always been one of the most active and non-problematic members on here and I would miss you a lot if we didn't stay in touch :( I've loved hearing your musical journey and seeing you grow as an artist! I know you would make a great admin too so if you ever want to take over duties you can be my guest :cackle: I and PHF love you lots! <3 

@Muri How do LB and ATRL filter new members? I'm not really active on either so I'm not sure how they do things!

@Capsule I lowkey really want someone else to take the reins too :cackle: I still enjoy visiting PHF but it just can't be a priority for me right now. But that doesn't mean I want to lost contact with everyone :'( So is the PHF discord just for trading now? How bizarre...Idk how PHF turned into a community that was all about trading. It was never my priority when we made the site and I haven't even traded in years so Idk why that became such a big thing here. If the forum does end up going down I would love for you to help me set up a Discord for us to keep in touch <3

@Skinny Legend Basically yeah. They kicked out hundreds of people that they deemed "inactive" and just kept it to traders, at least that's my understanding bc I was also kicked from it :dealwithit: But honestly, it became a big thing here because downloads/file sharing is allowed. It always happens when you add download links to the mix. Definitely let me know if you wanna move forward with the Discord <3

I'm a newbie here and not very active but I was well welcomed. It's really great to find a place where there are people who share (almost) the same musical tastes (like Florrie, Kerli, Dagny, etc. and even Jordan McCoy and Destinee & Paris ^^).

@Skinny Legend I can only imagine all the work you had and still have to do to keep this site pleasant ! Thank you for everything ?

Thank you also to all the members who keep this forum alive, help in organizing discographies and share tons of music ❤️

All the best to all of you !

Thank you a lot for the offering, boo <3 however, I can't carry the responsibility :( I'm integrating into my new job (which will be more demanding than the previous one) and even my music career after this upcoming album will be forced to slow down... at first I thought on taking it, but I wouldn't like taking the reins of the forum and then not being able to keep it up :yeah:

Well... This was unexpected :yeah:

Even though I haven't been very active for the past 2-3 years, I will always have fond memories of my time on here back in 2016-2017. Ranting about Bonnie McKee's still unreleased second studio album with y'all was very cool and a lot of fun. Thank you @Skinny Legend for being the great admin that you were <3

One last request. Would you mind leaking the song Nex as a farewell present? :awkwardney:

they did random dumps every few months of the inactive members who didn’t post anything. There was a lot of trolls and random account that would join. They got rid of the trading section and it’s also against the rules to speak about trading in the discord. The ownership changed last year as the original owner @Ari was busy so @liberation took over. I’m sure they would let you back in if you messaged a member of it.
