One other thing I should mention. I am keeping the information in the "database" on Gone Raw - I'm not totally removing what's there. So you may still be able to search for information in the forums, and possibly even continue discussions that have already been started. The important point is that we are not supporting the forums going forward, and they may disappear without a trace at any point in the future, without notice!

If I had to choose between recipes and forums, I would choose recipes! I agree that the recipes have needed a little help lately. I hope we can still discuss recipe particulars in the comments.
Enjoy your time with the baby! And thank you for keeping the site up and running.

Thanks. We'll definitely keep recipe comments around, and I do hope to improve the recipe features more, since we have so very many great recipes on here. Just haven't had the time to do that.

And there are other features we might drop in to replace the forums, we just had so many problems we weren't able to recover and present the ones we have. Stay tuned.

By the way, I meant that we needed to add more recipes, not that you needed to work on the recipe features more! I've noticed over the last few months that users were on the forums more and posting recipes less than when I first got on. In the past there were lots of new recipes daily, whereas now some days there aren't any.

OK, UPDATE! Never mind. I was just able to recover the entire forums. I'm putting them back for now, and eating my words.

Now to change a diaper. :)

I deleted my comment as it is no longer relevant.

thanks ray :)

I, for one, will be sad if and when the forums are discontinued. I've learned a lot and my thinking has expanded through the discussions. However, life goes on and change is inevitable.

I second that sadness. The forums here were wonderful.

I am glad recipes are before forums, but better than that I am glad for your happy news of a little one.
Things will work out, even if it a work in the makings for the website.
