Sailor Orion's website scheduled to shut down!

Post by Slrjoecool » Tue Jul 13, 2004 6:33 pm

According to a recent update, Sailor Orion's Refige will be shutting it's doors forever in August.

According to the website:
Sailor Orion's Refuge wrote:July 10, 2004

After five and a half years online, I am very sorry to announce that I have decided to close the Refuge. Current demands on my finances, as well as the fact that I just don't update any longer, make it impractical for me to renew the domain and webspace.

I want to thank all of you who made the Refuge such an amazing place to be for such a long time. I was proud just to be a part of the community that you created here. I will miss the Refuge so very much, and wish all of you love and happiness.

I would also like to officially give permission to anyone who would like to start their own SEC, or Sailor Generator, to do so. I had so much fun with both of those projects and although I can no longer continue them myself, I'm not opposed to letting anyone else who wants to, to take over and build on the ideas.

As for SMO, I haven't given up on it entirely. I may one day finish it, and if so it will be posted over at fanfiction.net. However at this point I've run into a bit of a block. If anyone out there feels the desire to write their own version of the end of the story, feel free... I'd love to read it, myself. *winks*

This domain will expire in early August and will not be renewed. Until then all of the original files will remain up and functioning.

Thank you all again, for everything. There are no words to describe how much I appreciate the light you've brought to my life for so long. The Refuge will always have a very special place in my heart and memory.

Be well, my friends...

So, there you have it. Sailor Orion's web site will be shutting down, and the rest of the story may go untold.

Flesh may cross the portal,
and seek it’s master Death.
Life may go where Death has trod,
and challenge, like Scheherazade,
he who reigns beneath the sod,
to spare a mortal’s breath.

I can't believe it. :cry: I've read all of their fanfic and I was stumped so I waited and waited for the last chapter but... :( It was really good, very enjoyable!

This doesn't have anything to do with the actual Sailormoon show/manga outside of the fact that it's a fansite (I've personally never been there). But If this is a widely known site, then It might be useful to someone, so I won't lock it. I'll move it to off topic.

If the mod of Off Topic feels it should be here, than I'm sorry and move it back! ^^; As I said, though it's a Sailormoon related site I feel it doesn't belong here because it holds no discussion value outside discussion the fansite.
And really, why shouldn't we be afraid? In case you haven't heard, life is terminal. Cigarettes will kill you. So will your cellphone. Your car is a deadly weapon and alcohol is a quiet killer. Don't lick the lead-based paint on the walls. Don't lick the back of a postage stamp and certainly don't lick any strangers! That will bring you down quickly indeed. Don't drink the water but don't drink less than eight glasses a day. Your enviroment is toxic, your natural resources are dwindling, your days are numbered, but what ever you do, don't panic! The stress, don't you know, will kill you.
