Might be the final Death for a while if the Mods are seriously considering pulling the plug from the summer.

It also may be the the last death of a TET for quite a long while.I'm hoping that's the case because this thread has been amazing in the past, and shutting it down for a while could help it recover. Not to mention summer could kill it otherwise.

Got a source for this or is this just wishful thinkings on your part?

Go back a page or three. DLN has said a temporary shutdown for the summer is under consideration. I think its a very good idea.
