Explanation:

The image macro is based on the "Mine? Mine? Mine? Seagulls" meme template (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/mine-mine-mine-seagulls).

Usually, when the admin of a Fediverse server plans to shut down their server for good, they notify the users on the server about it. They also tell them to join other servers instead if they want to stay in the Fediverse.

And just as usually, admins of other Fediverse servers show up in the comments thread, advertising their own servers as new homes for the users on the server to be shut down. This may appear to be an act of generosity towards these users. However, it may just as well be perceived as these admins grubbing for new users to join their own servers.

Remaining active accounts in this week received a closure notice via email. This amounted to 4 users.

Much of the community has moved to:

Wargamers.social
Dice.camp
Tabletop.social
Gamepad.club
Mastodon.social

Lastly on the closure this instance was run without any financial support and was maintained through the goodwill of our Admin. So thank you to @ianob

If you’ve any questions on this I am over @RollleafD

New spam accounts which had signed up were suspended daily up until my departure from the server.

Prior to the closure notice, I had purged of our user database of lurking/dormant spam accounts.

Everyone here in this period received a toot about the close (done manually).

Updates on the closure have been posted and can be found on my timeline (25 over the course of a bit more than a month).

New sign ups to the server (I hadn’t the ability to turn these off) were informed on the day they signed up and directed to new servers.

Hi there!

If you’re reading this and on warhammer.social it’s a note to say that this server is no longer moderated as of today (17/01/24), and it is liable to be closed without notice.

A decision was made on the 17/11/24 that the server would close, after that point comms about the closure ceased. After which and in that in that context as the Mod on the server I initiated communications about the shutdown.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think the last server I was on got shut down #mastodon #servershutdown #startingfromscratch

It’s sad to see another server shutting down. I feel for the people that have to move their account to another server.

I just want to let everyone know that myself and @cliffwade welcome everyone to join our #AllThingsTech server and are happy help anyway we can! Our server is for anyone who loves tech and anything else! Come join in the fun.
