You really can't. It just dies due to inactivity, and then Forumer might decide what to do with it.

Don't kill it, its still useful for all of the reasons you mentioned earlier. I'd keep it up there, just in case something bad does happen :)

And I dont hate you, its kinda cute tbh. Sorta, not in a gay way, ew.

If something catastrophic happens, the staff will make a new place and continue managing it.
Under no circumstances will we move to a backup forum in which you are the root admin, nor under any circumstances will I join a forum on which you are admin.
Better men than you have tried, and with more effort. This is doomed.

I think someone should make a topic about all the dead forums that were N related.

That would be more worthwhile than this.

I didn't even notice that there was another form besides the Metanet forum. I've never even heard of the NUMA forum, or the N-Formation forum either. N-Formation forum link maybe?

Not content with simply annoying everyone, Evil_Sire has actively attempted to sieze power.

He failed.

Everyone loves the idea of administrating their own forums, but forums made for the sake of making a forum never last. That's somewhat of a relief, too, because if a competing forum gained traction it would do little but harm the community (although, if that ever occurred, it would suggest there are serious problems with the existing forums that need to be fixed). There certainly aren't any serious problems here.

In any case it's not a problem. Evil_Sire can offer the choice of alternative forums—although plagiarising the text was a dick move—and the members and staff can explain why the alternative forums are unnecessary. Everyone learns from the experience. Because you are always learning!

The n-formation forum was shut down about 3 years ago. There is no need for any links.

Many people have tried setting up other similar forums. I even tried setting up a numa forum once upon a time, but that never worked either. If you want something like the metanet forums, then, you know, you use the metanet forums.
