Basically there was a large scale cyber attack on Friday. However instead of targeting specific websites it attacked a major domain name system (DNS) company. DNS systems basically tells websites where other websites are so if you can disrupt it no-one can connect to websites.

Some of the biggest websites got DDOSed yesterday, I think.

maybe Anonymous can change unAvatar-twitter-puppet-forums back to AF?!


*redbulls are messing with my gray matter*

sadly, i think our history is gone for good. too much time has slipped by. sad. very sad only. :'(

And Lonlon seems to barely maintain the website.
But I have to say that in all the Avatar communities are inactive or on minimum activity/break.

I didn't know that blog site was still going. ToS seems pretty active. :)

Well, it's the last hope for the remaining fans.

*throws empty beer bottles into that un-avatar-forums ridiculous twitter-puppet mess*

??

I think I'm missing out on something.

Just the former #1 Avatar fansite that became an empty social media community.

Avatar-Unforums suffer from spambots too lol :D Actually the only activity is spams there lol :P

spam is so utterly evil, even i as super villain feel bad for the undead Avatar-Forums ;)

i was a bit buzzed when i was posting the other night, and kinda drunk-mad at CorporateLonSatan for destroying AF, so i tossed some virtual empty beer bottles into the un-AF social media spamhole, instead of putting them in the recycle bin.

Its kind of sad really, I get what he was trying to do, set up a avatar related news site with attached forum to get more traffic but it doesn't work if there such limited news on Avatar at present. The result is a website with no content and thus no visitors.

Oh and its starting to fill up with spam bots that haven't been removed. Never a good sign.

I sent a message. Let's see what will happen. It's been over 3 months since the reopening of the website.

what is wrong with that guy??? AF was a great site, but this lousy excuse of a cell-puppet ad paradise is inexcusable. i remain thoroughly disgusted by CorporateLonSatan and what he's done with my old net home. grrrrrrr.

So… if I wanted to sign up for the new AF how do I go about it? There's no place to login or register.

You just don't. lol

i am disgusted by the loss of AF, every damn day i'm on the net. i hope you're happy, CorporateLonSatan. karma will always come around.

goodbye, former net home. Happy Holidays to all former AF members, everyone on ToS, LN, and all the Avatar fans out there. our time is coming...

Messing up with dev tools while Learn Na'vi is under maintenance.

LOL @Vawmataw!

It's our intention to keep LN running ad infinitum. :)

Avatar-forums: 2009-2017
 

It's over. I think. The Twitter account of Avatar-Forums was deleted and the link doesn't work anymore.

This time, it's different, since the website was barely active.
However, since we never have any friggin info from Lonlon, we may wake up in February with a brand new forum/blog.

even the twitter-puppet ad site is gone now. smh. that man is nothing but a greedy clone of our assclown-in-chief trumpster. sad. very sad only.

Not with a bang but with a whimper...

Well the main site seems to be down permanently as it now unreachable, this time I doubt it will be returning.

Poor Avatar-Forums, and it was all going so well.

One detail: The twitter account is back, but no activity since Feb. 9.

i am still so sad at the destruction of AF, not just for all the obvious reasons, but that even though i was able to rescue some of my Neytiri edits from internet archive page screenshots, there are so many lost forever, as well as great edits and gifs from many other members who have never made it here. i thought i still had most everything, but sadly my old pc blew up in late 2015, and two of my older non-ssd external drives are just so much electronic felgercarb now, just waiting their turn to be dismantled for eventual inclusion to my Statue of Fail. the evil of the AF Hometree destruction remains palpable in the air.

For sure - I certainly had so many memories in the form of thousands of posts across the first months of 2010, now all gone... but, at least the People remain :)

i found this screenshot of mine, from the sadly deceased AF, in an old external drive that i am transferring data to a new SSD, and getting rid of old unreliable drives with platters and breakable stuff inside. i had over 15,350 posts at the demise of AF, so much fun and memories. rest in peace, AF memories :(


btw, no one ever really answered the question i asked, on that screenshot...

Oel ngati kameie ma Ja'k, As for your question, imo, its because no matter what the movie is about, if there are people who like it and enjoy it and want to take the point the movie has to heart, even if it has an important message, it comes down to the fact that there are always tragic souls that like to cause uncomfort for others, they enjoy the thought of ruining others fun, or making light of things that the members of the community see as important. I also can't understand it, but I guess its just a human illness to like to ruin someone elses parade. That being said, I will never let them ruin my experience, and stop me from talking to my Avatar friends and I will try to do my best to remember the message from the movie while at the same time enjoy the ride of the Avatar franchise. I will enjoy walking past the decomissioned Amp suit on Pandora in two weeks, to personally see the ruins of the greedy and evil RDA for myself, Hell yea!!

i wish there was a way to keep alive the memories and good times of AF, like a sort of interactive memorial or something.

Srane, there were some great people and memories from AF and awesome discussion, sadly the person at the helm, and his philosophy on how to "run" the place and what was important( imo) ran it into the ground. But us fans will always find a way :) and the sequels are getting closer each day, the best days for Avatar fans are still ahead of us, I believe :)

Sharing my respects for the loss of the Avatar-Forums.com - had been my Avatar home for a long time even though it's been a while since I had been on.

Very sad to see it gone.......

It's a shame Avatar Forums went down. It was the first, well, Avatar forum i joined and my favorite. May it be at peace with Eywa.
