Say good bye to SRU

Scoop

from the Nothing good lasts forever. department, Section Site News
Posted on Thu Feb 20, 2003 at 11:43:21 AM GMT
In the next month or so, once the details are all hammered out, SRU will cease to exist. Since I have decided to let someone else aquire my scoop hosting business, we will no longer be offering SRU. We still have Geekizoid up, and you're all welcome to come hang out and play over there. If you want to know why I'm doing this, see my excellent post on the subject over at Slashcode. That post can be found here: Slashcode article

Bah.. that's a pity. (5.00 / 2) (#11)

I guess there's no point writing here since it'll be erased, so I'll create a new GiZ journal instead. Here it is.

Anyway Vlad, what was excellent about you slashcode post?

A drunken goodbye comment (5.00 / 3) (#7)
by BringBackATV on Sat Feb 22, 2003 at 12:12:09 AM GMT

(guess which record was played at the end of the night at my local drinking emporium tonight...?)

I met a guy who sang of Scoop,
And asked him for some real hot poop,
But he smiled and walked away.
And I logged into the sacred site,
Where I could talk a load of shite,
But the browser said my drivel wouldn't play.
And on the net, the fartbots screamed,
As the flooders crapped and the trollers dreamed,
But not a word was spoken,
The URL was broken.
And the sites I recommend to you,
Such as AQ, and SRU,
They said 'Goodbye, That's it, Adieu',
The day, that Sco-oop died.
So Bye, bye, Mr Sporkian Pie.
Drove my imac to the trollpac but the trollin' was dry.
And went to the fridge, and grabbed a mince pie,
Singing this will be the day that I die,
This will be the day that I die.
(well soon, if I dont give the VRB a rest)

If you haven't already realised, this is meant to be sung to the tune of the last verse - which you will probably know if you have the long version, on the LP on the cream U/\ label

here's a thought (5.00 / 1) (#3)

sporkizoid.com: a blend of slash-code-ness with the look of scoop-look-ness.

bring icons over. colors. etc. what do ya say? add a few more options to the moderation dd menu. make journals top level.

keep all of what is GiZ but add to it. make that shit deep. then I'd say that would be about perfect.

I will miss it, but then again, it is pretty dead around here anyway lately.  I can't say as I blame you, seems Slash does better and is more cost efficient.

Good Luck!

"Sigh" b-bye SRU.
