After much thought, and with a heavy heart, I have decided to close BratsRBack on the 15th July.
Our membership has steadily dropped and out of those who are still members only a few post with any great regularity. This being such, its not worth the time, effort and money to keep the board going.
I will not be leaving ezboards though, but will be relocating over at Ozzie City. I shall be moving the resource centre and Recipe Swap Shop over there as I put a lot of time into that section...everything else will be deleted.
Buddy and I will work together to build his board up instead. Those of you who are interested are more than welcome to join me on Buddys board.
Buddys Board is located here: p066.ezboard.com/bbuddysmates
For those of you who are involved with the Brats Daily Trivia
Challenge, I shall maintain the trivia but voting on topics will be
held on Buddys board instead of Brats.
I have loved every moment Ive spent with BratsRBack as this board has been my great love for the last two years. To the Mods who have stuck with us I give my deepest thanks...namely Michelle, Sue and Jannis.
Thanks also go to my trusty admin Buddy. You people are what have made this board such fun to come to and I hope you will come join in the fun at Buddys board.
To the few members who have been here throughout, I give my love and thanks for spending time at Brats and helping to make it the fun place it once was.
Im truly sorry to see my labour of love go but this is for the best.
I wish all of you the very best and hope you all will stay in touch.
Andrea, I'm saddened to hear this. I know running a board such as this takes a lot of time and effort. I'm sure you've put a ton of thought into this decision, and certainly it hasn't come lightly. It's never easy to make this kind of decision, after you've put everything you have into something.
I want to thank you for always being so gracious to me, and I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here, and the time spent as a moderator for you. It's only Real Life committments (my business specifically) that restricted my time on line. It bothered me that I couldn't get here as much as I wanted to.
You've always done an outstanding job with your board, and your sense of humour, you're kind heart and your generousity were always so much appreciated.

Sizter you KNOW I suffer from irregularity, but you know I wubs ya too. The Hack has really plowed under a ton of boards. The last month for me's been super busy with getting the DD ready to go off to spend a month at college, fighting with the blood relative sizter over selling the house (she wants her money NOW), and getting the house sold (still in the process of that now), plus work and life in general I've been busier than a one armed paper-hanger.
Thanks for letting me play in your back yard!! I hope Ozzie doesn't mind my mud puddles, I'll come see ya there.
(((HUGS)))

Re: BratsRBack is Closing
Theres enough room to move in (but it would be like a motel - just an overnight stay)
I'll have to stay sober tomorrow night for the wake!
Re: BratsRBack is Closing
I can't believe I'm just now seeing this. Life has certainly swallowed me up.
Andrea, I am so sorry you are closing BRB. You have always worked so very hard to make the board successful. I know all too well how time comsuming a board can be.
Your board was one of the very first that I even posted on with EZboard besides my own, of course.
This has always been such a close group and I feel honored to have been a part of your board family. If you're moving over to Ozzies then I will follow. Thank you so much for giving of yourself, your time and your heart to your board family. I appreciated it more than you will know.
(((((Andrea))))
