Move / disband the forum/site?

[iago]

Hey everybody,

x86labs.org is coming up for renewal in February, and the SSL cert is up for renewal like tomorrow (and it's gonna be a pain in the butt to renew the cert).

I'm wondering if I should bother? Here's my proposal (which makes my life easier):
- Move the forum to a subdomain of skullsecurity.org (since I have a wildcard SSL cert and will maintain that domain till I'm cold and dead)
- Make the forum read-only (so we can keep it as a monument, since nobody really posts anymore anyways)
- Declare a new 'official' space for us (whether it's the current Facebook group or we make a Google Group or whatever, I don't care)

Thoughts?

I like either of the first two.

Sounds like a good plan. =)

All for it. Either of the first two.

Guys, I think he's outlining a plan, not enumerating options. >_>

Maybe, but option 3 sux0rz

Haha yeah, it was more of a plan, but eh? I didn't check back, and I just renewed the domain for 3 years and fixed the SSL cert. So we won't have to worry about this again till 2018 :)

how on earth did you even remember this

SSL certs are automatable and free now with letsencrypt. No reason to not keep this place around so we can all be embarrassed by our 14yo selves.

+1 to letsencrypt - I come by and laugh at how dumb I once was/how much has not changed.

Can just cron renewing the cert, too, as simple as:

Code Select Expand


$ certbot renew --standalone

I'm awesome, duh

Why would we make the forum read only? 

Just renew this shit and don't change anything. I can probably find the money on my floor.

I like how responding three years later isn't really a bump.
