Closing

Yep, this is the end of the DCFFF.

As you've noticed, updates haven't really been happening on schedule lately. This is for a large variety of reasons, none of which is that we're lazy. Personal problems, angry parents, computer crashes, lack of submissions - they were all contributing factors to the paucity of updates.

Now, normally, when something like this happened I'd just send out feelers to get replacements and continue on my merry way. However, in this case, it's not feasible. I usually train the archivists, as a good portion of them don't know too much HTML when they first join. However, this summer, I'm way too busy. I work two jobs (adding up to 11 hours a day) and I'm in the middle of prepping for college in August, getting our house ready for our big cross-country move in September, and trying to have a little fun in there during my last summer with all my high school friends. I simply don't have the time to train four new people to post stories - heck, I barely have time to eat. None of the other current staff members has the time, either.

As a result, Laura and I have decided to combine forces with Capeside Central and have all the stories and stuff at the DCFFF posted there. I don't know when this move will happen. If you'd like to check it out, you can go to http://come.to/capesidecentral

I WAS planning on having the couple of posters that still get stories keep on posting them until the merger is final. However, a few nasty little emails that poppped up in my inbox over the past two weeks have convinced me otherwise. This IS the end of updates. Period. The staff has stated it before, and I'll state it again: Dawson's Creek is not our life. A very small portion of you seem to think otherwise, but it's a very vocal portion, sadly.

To those of you that have been supportive of the page over the past year and one month, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have no idea how much those "Great job" emails have helped reaffirm our decision to keep the page going for as long as we did. You have made the journey worthwhile.

And for those of you that have been less than supportive (even downright mean), all I can offer is: "what goes around comes around".

The page will no longer be updated from this point forward. The archived stories will remain in place until the merger with Capeside Central is final, at which time the main page will be replaced with a link to that site. I will send out a final notice to this list once that happens.

Thank you for visiting and enjoying the page while it was around. Enjoy your summer.
