Nothing that anyone would have heard of~ there were only probably 50 or fewer people who used it.

Yes XD now there's even less than that and they aren't really posting. I do check back from time to time but there's never any activity from anyone I 'know'. It looks like new users join, realise no one else is active, and leave again periodically.
I'm surprised it's still up, actually. It costs me a lot to host my little sites every year so it must cost the owner still as well.

maybe they're keeping it up for that nostalgia? Would giving it up make all the content vanish? Maybe they want to preserve it ;o

That's true! I already went through and saved a lot of stuff (copied and pasted into word documents haha) years and years ago just in case. So at least I'm covered if it ever goes down XD

Sites can be recorded in archives like the Wayback one but they have to be crawled first. Not every site is in there as the archive may not realise to go and look at them.

I've had fic sites dissappear on me in the past, with wondrous fics that were only ever posted there. I sometimes randomly remember and get sad thinking I'll never get to reread :'(
