Yesterday, with deep regret, I finally put an end to the hobby forum I ran for Warhammer 40,000 for two and a half years; The Smoking Bolter. The final closing thread is here.

I hadn't mentioned more specifically why I had to close the forum besides it's recent stagnation. Truth is, I haven't got the time to properly run a large forum anymore, and I didn't think it fair to the members and staff that supported it for me to do a half-assed job at it. I have an education, and a future career to worry about, and it doesn't leave a whole lot of time for my hobbies. It is a sad thing to do, but unfortunately, I had to do it.

RIP The Smoking Bolter.
