| 1489655 | 2022-12-13 02:41:00 | As Jen mentioned in a post (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) in September, the PressF1 forum will be closing in 2022. The last day of Forum operations will be the 20 December 2022. Here at Foundry, we wanted to thank you all for being an amazing community and for all your contributions over the years. It is no small feat to sustain such a friendly corner of the internet. Wishing you all a safe holiday season and all the best for 2023. Foundry ANZ (formerly IDG Communications) |

| 1489656 | 2022-12-13 02:51:00 | Hi all, Had to pop back and say hi after Foundry (ex IDG, ex Fairfax) got in touch to say things were closing down. Bit of a shame to see it all coming to an end. It was just over 2 decades ago now, that I got the job at Fairfax as Helpdesk / junior network admin fella. Working with Karl, Kalman, Bruce, Mark etc was a real privilege, and I'm grateful for the trajectory it set me on personally. To all the old hands who've been around for ... well literally decades, there's still some familiar faces / names here, and I just want to say it's been a pleasure and a privilege to be able to help so many people alongside you, and for all the help you've been to me too. Funnily enough I'm no longer in IT though, after having been doing VoIP / ISP work for the last decade, a motorcycle accident wiped me out last April and I couldn't walk for 3 months, so now I'm a fully licensed medicinal cannabis cultivator right here in Tāmaki Makaurau. If you're curious what I've been upto, you can check us out at skyman.co.nz (Redirects to our Instagram). Wishing you all the best with the future, and here's to all the fun times... Like the time that PF1 would crash whenever a new user signed up and we had to keep on restarting it, it took like 2 weeks to figure out what was wrong �� Anyways, cheers all, it's been a blast. Chill. |

| 1489657 | 2022-12-13 07:08:00 | I would like to join with Chill to wish you all the best. Very sad to see PressF1 come to an end. There have been previous closure threats in the past, but this time it is final. I hope you take the opportunity to reconvene over at the Too Many Message Boards that some of you arranged to be set up. As this thread is locked, I have created another thread if you wish to post the fun/weird stuff we got up to over the years: pressf1.pcworld.co.nz Best Wishes Jen |
