Yes, we need an Emergency Meetup Location. Somewhere everyone knows to go if the site goes down, if nothing else to exchange contact info. If VVO had stayed down much longer, I was thinking of creating a Reddit, but no one would have known it existed, so that was a problem.

Ironically, it never occurred to me to go to the LL/SL forums until the Cristiano thread showed up on Google. Oooh yeah, that place!
We have the Discord server. That actually proved quite valuable during the forum outage.

A lot of people were discussing it on the Official Forums and quite a few of us are on Mastodon now.
I didn't even think to check Mastodon! Of course, I don't know any of you there, either! 😱 When the forum disappeared, I took to Twitter and pestered Free, as she was one of the few VVO people I knew there. Then I remembered the Discord server.

But if any of you want to add me to your follower list on Mastodon, I'm @Kat_Helendale@social.linux.pizza

Thanks, I tried to get an account but I got an invalid invite alert.
You seem to already have an account. Says you’re offline… if you go to discord itself, you should be able to see the vvo logo on the side.

can’t seem to post an image from drive, but anyway, you’re there.

I've never been able to get Discord to work. I'd get in, then lose access to the account, then not be able to create a new account "because you already have one".

So, what is up with Cris? He's obviously alive and hopefuly well.. but is he sick?
I don't know but people have been saying he has been. There hasn't been a "big post" about it for everyone to see so I'm fine with not knowing myself.

Hm. I'm not sure what's going on there. Try this link instead. It's the "official" invite link that Cris posted some time ago. (I edited my previous post with the new link also.)

I also see you've got two Discord accounts, one made today and one from a few years ago.

My problem with Discord has been having to deal with a captcha that doesn't know a bus from an RV from its own ass

Hope this means you are doing better, though, based on the LL forum, I'll say: as good as you can be at the moment, and will get better.

Wow, just at the point (or almost beyond the point) that I had resigned myself to VVO being gone forever! Mightily relieved to see it back. Discord is ok, but it isn't the same.

Also, I hope this means that Cris is better.
