    Well, we've all seen it coming for the past few months now (the 3 of us that still look at anything in this group.)

    Just a few minutes ago, there was a little bit of drama in this group, and given how little the group is actually used for its original intentions like it was in past years, I am a bit concerned that this group will become an unmoderated mess of drama like that, and I think the best move is to formally shut this place down. This group is far past its prime anyways, and I feel that being part of this group is now more of a liability than anything, and I, as well as others, are probably just fine with ditching the title of weird roleplay people, and while that title is not necessarily deserved, it is definitely a thing.

    If you still care about anything in this group, and I absolutely get it if you don't, consider joining the Discord server, which is owned and moderated by some familiar faces here such as @Cory5503 , @Tuner from America , @brien_w , and more (linked below.) I don't love the format of RPing on Discord, but I think it's the best option going forward.

    Given the shutdown of groups a while back, I can't lock the group or transfer ownership or anything of the sort, I pretty much have the same amount of power as a moderator at this point despite still technically being owner.

    The plan as of right now is probably to just lock all of the threads, but I'm open to suggestions, I suppose.

    Thanks for all the good times.

    I’m really sad to see this place go. This is what got me into beamng Roleplay, and eventually the owner of a group. Don’t hesitate to join us at the link above. It’s not the same as this group, but it’ll have to do.

    Yes, forums were a great pace, but life happens and it's time to say goodbye

    My favorite memories of this group is probably my time in the chases across the state. I’ll miss this place, we all will, and I’m glad we can give it a proper send off.

    You know,

    I used to love writing Plane Crash stories on Captain Adam's thread, but the lost of interest of telling stories online is disappearing.

    Yes i like to write fictional plane crashes in my free time but the idea of posting them online isn't a part of me anymore

    Well my first ever message was made on this group the day of creating my acct, so It'll be sad to see this group go. But, Discord seems like a better place for now until the website moderator's and admins can figure out a way to re-instate groups and bring the feature back.

    So is the group being deleted or is it just going to be locked/unsupported?

    Not deleted, no. There's no practical way to get rid of the entire group, so the plan is to just lock stuff.

    Cool. It’s fun to look back on the stuff. Especially our FBI chasing times.

    Those were the days. That was definitely my favorite character of mine.

    Yeah, the chaos and confusion was part of the fun. That was the first high-intensity fast-paced thing we had done in a while, it was nice to spice things up a bit.

    Well, it sucks to say goodbye to the original home of Beamng Roleplaying, but, it was well-worth it while it lasted. It was fun, everybody.

    I never really said anything on here, but I loved to just skim by and have a look at some of you guys stories. Thanks for the fun, people.

    It's a shame, because discord is shit to use for rp.

    Yeah, it really isn’t the best. Unfortunately it’s the best we have for now.

    If you're switching to a discord server, is there a link? I think discord might be better because it'll be easier to manage, and it's a bit more immediate - Depending on what you like, that's either better or worse
