A farewell to a great site.....

[snoopy55]

FileFront, a site that I, and I know many of you, have used over the years is closing it's doors March 30th, maybe forever. If you have had any thoughts of going there and searching for downloads or information for any games you may have, you have three days. I only found this while I was searching for maps for Quake III Arena.

It's a sorry thing to see such a useful site pass away.

This is a great loss to the gaming community! Many files I have downloaded from them!

Just emailed Ziff Davis Publishing Holdings Inc and told them how disappointed I was with this decision, and told them I was canceling all my subscriptions to their magazines.

Filefront Isn't Closing After All!!

After learning about Ziff Davis Media's plan to shut down FileFront at the end of March, the original founders of FileFront made the decision to buy it back from Ziff Davis Media.

We're happy to announce to the gaming community that as of today, April 1st, 2009, FileFront is a completely independent company again and is no longer part of Ziff Davis Media. All previously suspended services should be active and working again. We thank Ziff Davis Media for their cooperation and willingness to keep the site and community alive.

Due to the very unfortunate timing of this event and related announcements on March 24th and April 1st (April Fool's Day), we'd like to make it perfectly clear that:

1) The March 24th announcement about FileFront shutting down was NOT an early April Fool's joke and Ziff Davis Media had every intention of shutting down FileFront by the end of March.

2) This announcement about the original founders buying back FileFront from Ziff Davis Media is also NOT an April Fool's joke.

3) We're making this announcement on April 1st because the deal was completed today and we want to bring all services back online immediately.

4) We would NEVER shut down FileFront as an April Fool's joke.

5) We are happy to be back!
YAY!!!
