There are many reasons why I am shutting down these forums. At this point it is mainly about security and upgrading this software which was cutting-edge when we started in 2002 but now is not.
With that said, even in 2019, there is still a lot of interest in the BBS scene and preserving games has become so huge that we actually saw Blizzard re-release a 15-year-old game in response to fan requests.
As we all know a lot of things have changed over the years and within the past year there have actually been some pretty cool developments in the BBS space which I plan to take advantage of to give us all a place to play again.
In the meantime I've set up
a Discord server for Operation: Overkill so that people can reconnect and discuss everything OO related old and new!
Operation: Overkill World HQ
