I was never really involved in the forum so I could not speak for them, but I’m sure they’ve dedicated a lot of their time and money as well, and have a great achievement for having eunuchs included in the SOC8.
We must pay respects and appreciations to where it’s due. My understanding is many of the old team simply got burned out from the lack of appreciation for what they had been doing tirelessly for this community. Remember: they never asked for any compensation, maybe except for a thank you here and there.
And they didn’t exactly just shutter the whole thing. They had a continuation plan in place. The Kinsey institute had promised to host and mirror the site in a read-only format. I have not received any updates about it though, but that’s Kinsey’s responsibilities.

And our new leaders were part of the previous incarnations of EA so there is a continuation. I have been a member through all 3 and really it a great shame that the "old" leadership didn't see fit to hand over to the new generation. It speaks to their character or lack of it !
