put it in read-only for posterity, since there still is some worth to finding information on the boards for various games, but

If they were gonna shut the place down it doesn't make sense to me that they'd put it in read only mode. If only though. Set me free from this dumb site
well yk they gotta finish modding posts somehow, and the guides are still useful or something

It might make sense to keep some of the archived topics on the various gameboards.

If they wanted to free up memory/bandwidth they could always go through and delete the social boards and unused game boards after making everything read-only.

It makes some sense. Read-only would be less resource-intensive than having to process inputs as well, including not needing to have anyone to moderate content. In read-only mode, they still get ad revenue from anyone that ends up coming to read guides or whatever posts are left (which show up in search engines), so there's some value in keeping the site alive in read-only mode for that.

The site went read-only for a couple hours. Nothing terribly unusual, but I'd be lying if it didn't cross my mind that it might have been the end of the site.
