How much in theory would it cost and what would it take for us to ensure a smooth transition to another party in conjunction of the longevity of this forum.
AKA selling out to a trusted partner/whatever.
Money talks and bullshit walks.
Most of us including myself are desperate to keep the forums alive. I'm willing to bet it can even be crowd funded if it truly motivates you.
We only want the best outcome.

The problem is separating the database from Facepunch and the legal/GDPR troubles that comes with moving that data to an outside entity. Knockout is the evolution of the Facepunch community.
Can't we all just pool our money and buy Garry
We've reached the bargaining stage of grief
Even with new FP removing stuff like PMs, the personal data on here (and as already mentioned, GDPR) is such a liability that it would be better to just pull the plug.
Garry's very expensive so let's ask monkey_123 to buy him for us.
I have 268 coins, is that enough?
if you want the community and not the name, we're working on Knockout. even garry himself has acknowledged it. we're adding some useful stuff that's missing, but in general we're already pretty far along and most things are in.
all we need now is for more people to start posting there, which will be a gradual process, unless if when? garry shuts down fp, in which case he mentioned he might link to Knockout.
the community will be fine. the URL will be different
how much an hour?
