I think it was a comment on her avatar image, which is very similar to Ms. Joan's look on Mad Men.

Lo-fi version of the WUMB is operational so if there's something you want to save for your archives, now's probably the time.

Wow that's pretty crazy.

I still don't understand the need to shut the board down. I mean, does it really take that much effort to keep the board running. It seemed like Wizard neglected it anyway and it still worked fine so why even shut it down? Rolling Eyes

At one time, the WUMB had several members of the Wizard staff as active participants on the forums. They acted as both faces of the magazines and fieldied questions/complaints about them pretty well and just as members of the board having a good time and interacting /w everyone.

Then there was culling, a majority of the Wiz staff was let go and several dick moves later I think the Wizard execs thought having an open platform where anyone can call them on their bullshit was not in their best interests.

Why pay for something that was only bringing them bad press.

And of course, one relatively staffer/forum member (and a Mod for a very short time before WUMB went down) ruined it all by being a douche and brought bad press to his employer.

@Matt: Originally, I assume the plan was to get closer to the readers and fanboys. It worked for a few years, until cutbacks and firings got rid of friends of most of us WUMBers and suddenly the people turned against the company. I doubt Wizard would even give a crap about the boards if not for the negative buzz it caused them, but probably at some point someone would've stopped paying the bills and it would've shut down anyway.
