discussion ForbiddenHaven Shutting Down.

[Sparto106]

Made a thread a while back talking about F95zone increasing their censorship but there was already a thread made on it. But this time I am 99% that I'm the first to make a thread on this. I think? Anyway, it looks like ForbiddenHaven is shutting down. If you go to the site you'll see this message.

• MY APOLOGIES BUT MY HEALTH DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO KEEP THIS SITE ANYMORE. FH IS OFFICIALLY CLOSE AND USERS' DATA WILL BE SAFELY DELETED AFTER SOME TIME. FH HAD AND WILL ALWAYS HAVE USERS' SAFETY AS A PRIORITY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE GREAT PEOPLE THAT GAVE US SUCH A GREAT AND FUN TIME. A REPLACEMEMT SITE SHOULD BE ONLINE SOON, PLEASE SEARCH YOUR FAVORITE GAME ON GOOGLE, AS USUAL. FAREWELL MY FRIENDS, AND AGAIN, THANK YOU

You can also see more on the Site Change Announcement. As shown below.


"I'll be brief because I really don't have much time, I'm jumping from one medical appointment to another while trying to solve FH's issues when I can.
Well, it's been a month and god knows how much I tried. The problems are piling up and we as staff discussed for days what could be done without hurting anyone. Some of you are receiving more context about our situation from FH's staff, some from me personally (the ones I really consider friends).
Around Feb 24 FH will be completing one year, it was an absolute success and we had so much fun, I'm really glad for that, thank you for the great people that come here with good intentions.
Going direct to the point, I'll see if I can make another announcement soon, but for now I'll have to say that my health just doesn't allow me to spend time taking care of FH's backend anymore, and we decided that it would be better if we closed FH for the public for good.
FH started as a personal project and will end as a personal project.

FH is being transferred to my emergency server to allow people to keep in touch with each other and save anything they want, this will last for around one or two weeks. After that WE WILL BE SLOWLY DELETING USERS' DATA FOR SECURITY REASONS (yes, your security, we always had your security as a priority). The server is a bit limited, but those limitations should not be too much of a problem for your normal use, so don't worry.

That doesn't mean the community will die, my staff is in contact with some friends from other sites and a replacement is already in motion, I gave a step-by-step plan to cover basically all security issues a site like this needs, and they have my contact for web-related emergencies."

Yes one of the staff who was a member on this forum opened another site.

Don't know if we can share the link though and I wont because it might result in a temp ban.

I saw a few posts mentioning FH and was wondering if that was Freedom Hosting, as I had not heard of Forbidden Haven. Pity to see so many sites down.

Could you send the link as a dm or tell me the name?

There is so much flux that maybe a thread with current forums would make sense.

 

[blue313]

damn another one

I keep finding out about sites I didn't even know about shutting down through these forums.

Never been there
It's not like they'd have games this site doesn't have

Another one bites the dust... cya in haven...

I think the point was that they allowed anyone to download them instead of making you jump through postcount hoops.
