Guru has turned into an ad-fest. Don't bother going there anymore. What's more, theres only like 10 people on.

Well that's a shame. Hopefully any newcomers end up finding their way here. I'll be passing the word along in-game through guildies and such.

Quick question: How many forums is Itchy administrating?
He claims 50.
Quote from Phunkie;3843:
Yeah, it's been censored. Can't mention it or link to it.
Use a link shortener to link to this site in PMs and whatnot. Don't do it out in the open, as it will get you banned.
Would be funny if everyone posted the link on the same day, poor itchy would have to ban his entire core user base.

A shame we didn't get to redirect the forum categories to Mabination yet.

And so, forum competition starts again.
But, at least the (very likely) affiliation between Mabination and M-world, and (the also likely) merge between M-world and Mabination IRC channels will give us a very grand head start.
Not to mention the M-world Wiki. No one can beat us now~

So... is there anyway to remove our accounts from Guru?
Because I don't want ad email spam flooding my email account. Well, it's not my main email account, but still...

you should be able to at the very least change your email on guru to some unused crap email you have access to.

i didnt bother reading everyone elses posts atm D8 but will later in the night. From experience it will take a LONGG time for guru to stop making money and be closedd... for example the site i used before the same thing that is happening here happened to us...its been like 2 years or something? and its still making money and people still use it..even though we moved and took all the data/wiki/people with us.. it comes up in google searches, it has the info you want, guests use it..its hard to pm guests you know since they are well guests o.o
/goes back to getting ready for work

Email will be changed then. v.v
I don't know about ads, but when you leave your email in the database of a website that is suddenly filling itself with ads, it tends to be a given that you'll be getting them emailed to you too.

Well honestly from the earlier thing at page 3~4 I can see where itchy is coming from in a bit of a way. Its a job, and we can't really say it was wrong of him to treat guru as a source of revenue. But I also agree with zeph that he should've kept at his job and at least check back every once in a while or hand full control over to a member if he wasn't going to be there.
The real problem was that he left us without any way to make modifications to the website.
In any case, the best way to take care of guru is to literally stop posting there. Think about it. Once its dead, its dead.

I don't post anything anymore. I just left some goodbye messages over there.
