The Hang

I see that Max Fisch has been down again for the past couple of days. Every time this happens I wonder if it is finally gone for good.

I know some here would be glad to see it go but I would still miss some of the collection of threads from years gone by.

The expiration date on the maxfisch.com domain name is
2025-07-25T23:00:00Z

Someone at the host is probably out sick or on vacation so the site isn't getting restarted/whatever.

Was down since the week end. Since I was away for over a year I don't have a feel about how routine or unusual this is.

I noticed it too. Is it normal for the entire sight to go down? I thought last time it was just the Hang.

Yes, it is normal. Happens at least 1-2 times a year.

The host the site uses isn't that great and whoever owns the site isn't around a lot to see that it is down and shoot off an email about it to the host.

Oh yeah, it happens from time to time. It's just that every time it does you can't help wondering...."is this it"

Yes I’m the same. I always think this is the end after a few days but it always comes back.

They say there is always a first time. But there is sometimes a last time too.

Me too. Every time it goes down I think; "could this be the last time?" It sounds like, when the domain name finally expires in July of 2025, that will be it. Lots of memories will be gone for good when The Hang finally goes down for the last time.

No sign of MF pulling a Lazarus and rising from the dead. I think this is day 8 or 9. I'm not sure if I remember it ever being down for this long?

Still checking but beginning to think this might be it. I wonder if this site will see a bump in traffic if that's the case? There are already a number of user names I have seen on both for some time but I wonder if more would come?

I seem to remember posts either here or on MF itself a few years ago that the owners of the site also owned eros.com. I only mention that because with that site eliminating BDSM and Fetish listings maybe eros finally pulled the plug on MF. Just a guess.

If kinkybootbeast is correct "when the domain name finally expires in July of 2025, that will be it," maybe it will return before its final demise.
