yeah I don't know the whole story but I have a feeling John didn't want to keep the forums up anymore

a lot of the users I guess went to discord and Reddit

I agree there were a lot of the same posters on there and for the most part cool peeps

and the occasional weird Death Row stan

Never got into bomb1st forum... only dubcc for me.

I was pretty known on Eminem's Bodyrott forum back in the day.  Ironically I was known as an "Eminem dickrider" for liking Eminem on an Eminem forum.  Everyone forgets those days but SlimShadyLP era Eminem was actually hated, even his so-called fans mostly hated on him, and it was a lot of racism just over them feeling insecure about being a fan of a "white rapper".  They needed Dre 2001 album and MMLP and everyone else to say it was okay before they could openly be fans of Eminem.

It was a really great forum.
In VIP we allowed several people to contribute to a huge number of unreleased Death Row Records projects and others that leaked everywhere.
A lot of money put on this forum.
But for some time now the forum has been dead and the VIP was no longer so interesting because as said before, people went to small groups on Discords ect...

That is a shame.  I really did like their forums.  Lots of good people there, very knowledgeable.  B1 and here is where i went all the time.  Wish they would've let people know ahead of time and gave everyone a chance to say goodbye.  I'm not sure if they voluntarily took it down or what?  I know at the end there was a beef going with a long-time contributor who was close with the mods and semi on the inside, who was threatening to leak everything and put everyone on blast and notify the estate and everything on what was all going down.  I just hope it wasn't because of that incident that something went on behind the scenes that caused them to pull the plug and run.

They were in the middle of a VIP project, had a few mixtape projects going on.....seems weird, if this was a planned thing, that it would be so abrupt and have all this stuff going on.  I think there's more to the story than someone just deciding they don't want to run it anymore.  Could've sold the domain/rights and let someone else take the reins.  Had a pretty big user base.  I think there's more to it, which we may never know......but anyways, RIP.  It was a great Pac site.  Hope it comes back someday.

everyone from there should migrate here imo

would make most sense

i think traffic was slowing down so not sure anyone would buy something of that sort

user base only goes as far as the daily traffic takes it

Would be cool to make a B1 sub board here and have all the 2Pac talk and stuff go over there.

i mean the main forum is already basically a 2pac/death row forum

 


you create a sub forum for 2pac only and that kills 75% or the discussion on the main forum
