Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

Dear Stan, I never spoke to you because I was intimidated as hell by you and afraid to come off as stupid. Your lovely Jean is doing a wonderful job uniting the board for the holidays and I'm sure you are proud. I'm sad I never got to know your wit like others. Love, fellow popcorn addict.

I was intimidated as hell by him, and I was the one who wrote him first blubbering like an idiot. He found me amusing with my shyness mixed with blubbering. ;)

I was probably one of the stupidest people here( and probably still am) when I first became a member. A few of my original posts and replies are proof of that. Right before Stan left us, I had a private chat with him. I explained my comments, admitted I was scared, and told him about me. He wrote back with 5 or 6 well written paragraphs. then 3 days later he was gone. At the end of his life, he took the time to talk to a person i think he highly suspected was a fear spreading pro life do-gooder.
He took the time to talk to me and he believed me when I told him I wasnt trying to sabotage the forum, i just didnt want to see anyone suffer. You see I had read a lot of scary info on a certain method, and just believed it without doing any research.
I will never forgot the compassion and effort he put into those few exchanges we had. As this forum seems to always speak of his logical side and his intellect, the Stan I barely knew was a caring , understanding, and compassionate person, and that's how I will remember him. In fact I knew so little of him, I don't even get the popcorn references...I'm guessing he must have loved the stuff.

That he was. He was very damaged and hid behind that logical mask.
He had lower self esteem than I did if that was possible. I tried to stop him. I would give him logical ways to solve his issues, but I knew he was too damaged for help.
It's funny. To the people here, he was so put together. Pull back his mask, he really wasn't.
It just shows you. Nobody really knows the pain someone is going through even if they appear so put together and why one person's pain isn't greater than another.

Bumpy day today. Had some horrible time, but also some laughs. I wish you were here. Have something I need your advice on.... now I can only imagine what you would tell me.
2:00 am. Really? Waking me up with answers? Thank you. Not what I wanted to hear. But as always, you are correct. Will cause me more pain And tears, but hey. What's a little more pain right? Thank you. I wish you were here to give me that answer. Wish you were here to take care of this issue. I'm still lost and you were so much stronger than you thought and better at these things. You were logical. My emotions get in the way. Remember? Time for me to be logical. Back to bed.

Thanks. It was a very odd day yesterday. Woke up feeling better after being woken up by Stan with the answer to a question. An answer that I needed, not what I wanted to hear. So like him lol.
