Yes, 17 000 bots on EAB, they turned the guests off.

hey guys it was not a bots problem , things are more serious  :-X

here are the last words  RCK said on the EAB irc channel:

"Hello guys, the forum is 24 years old now and has lasted long enough. I'm bankrupt and can no longer afford this domain because the donations aren't enough.
My wife is divorcing me and she  will be taking my house and most of my belongings, which are also just debts. In a a few days I'll be homeless and, of course, I'll have other priorities than Amiga's business. I hope you understand. I wish you all the best, RCK."

Do you have a link to the above? I went on as a guest and all looked fine to me 🤔 Unfortunately I can’t logon due to obvious reasons 🙄

No, because it's a load of nonsense.

Indeed, it's been thoroughly debunked on EAB: https://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=1749460&postcount=219, RCK has no clue what this looney is talking about.

Good, would have hated it if that were true. As EAB is one of the oldest Amiga Forums out there.

again is not a bots problem,  the website is down for non-payment
as I said above RCK is suffering a divorce he'll be evicted from the house next week.
some EAB members offered to house him, but he declined and plans to travel to India and convert to Buddhism

Either this account has been hacked. Or the OP is on some sort of non prescription drugs. I have my qualms with EAB for obvious reasons. But this is really a mark of fiction. As this the Critical Drinker would finish with “That’s all I got today, go away Now!” 🤣🤣🤣

These are all things that were discussed on the IRC channel. RCK also said he's frustrated with the feminist laws of France which harmed him, with the immigrants in who can no longer go out safe at night, etc
also the website was attacked by russian hackers, all of that  exhausted his patience.
but it seems the main reason is that there's no money to pay the debts of the website and yet no EAB member offered a viable solution

LMAO, thanks for the confirmation that this is complete and utter rubbish.
Me thinks LaserBack is heading for a timeout.
