Thanks for your thoughts, boogop and Jeff 
I remember you from the FB forums, I hope you're doing well.
We'll see what motivation is there when the summer holidays come, maybe I'll try updating it here a bit but I will admit, I find the thought a bit scary, I haven't touched php for years!!
...like tears in rain... I can't stand see this place to slowly fade to dark beside fire...
I was trying to put the above sentence in the oneliner, just to realize tha it didn't work... took a couple of seconds to keep the frustration to a reasonable level... I wasn't the very best "active member" type, the latest 8/10 years have literally exhausted me (still counting, but at a lower rate nowadays... phew!)... forum posts have dramatically decreased to almost none...
No one could blame your choice to let everything go and shut this place down... my thought is that if DBF would disappear we would lose not only one of the fundamental reference points where many built their muscles before becoming part of the Demoscene, but we all would loose a place of kindness and friedship like no others online (my personal thought).
I just hope that the forum could be preserved as a reference, at least...
