I have been a supporter - financial and through photos (either openkoori or cliffjay) - of BME since it started and I am aware that it is through the owners generosity EA has been able to continue.

However with 3 months gone and the site frozen I suspect that it will never revive and so anyone with pics on there who wants em back should probably go get em - sad tho it is.

If I am wrong and someone knows that BME WILL recover PLEASE tell us and we can leave things as they are.

All the very best to EA members for 2008

No one knows for certain. Lawyers have a way of keeping things all tied up for one, two, three years at times. In the mean time we can only sit back with a bowl of popcorn and watch. Enjoy the fun!

While I don't want to get too involved in the politics and lawsuits that are currently involved, there are two other (http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=12347) threads (http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=12024) that touch upon what's currently going on.

Suffice to say, there are some signs that things will be returning to normal soon, or at least relatively so. Unfortunately the court system is not exactly speedy.

I have every confidence that it will be resolved soon, BME will start updating, and things will eventually get back to normal.

i wish i knew this before i paid 70. for a 6 month scrib.

You may want to write and check, but I was under the impression that the timer on accounts was frozen until things get back to normal over there. I'm pretty sure those with ongoing monthly subscriptions have not been billed for a few months, and yet still have access to everything.

I still have complete access but I have not been billed for several months. --FLO--

my sub. was supposed to expire the 28th but i still have access! even though i do hope that it gets fixed soon, i just hope not TOO soon, because unlimited full access rocks so far.

I have access and my credit card was billed so I could get on.

My IAM was supposed to expire, but then I get this:

Your IAM account's expirey ('due-date') has been reset to March 7th, 2008. No payment or other authorization is required up until then to keep your account fully active. If you have any questions about this, please contact customer support.

I keep getting ones that say my expirey date is set to May of 2009. Same date each time.
