Hey guys. Have a look at these prices to keep the board on this same type format with a different name. It's a little pricey but would be worth it in the long run to keep this site on the same platform. Let me know what you guys think. We
could add a crypto donation address so we could all chip it to keep it alive and have it look very similar with a different name.

Am I reading your link correctly.......$165.....that’s it. I’m in. It would be great if Don could give us a ballpark figure as to what it costs a year if that hasn’t been done already. And let me echo everyone’s thoughts.......thanks Don for everything you have done for Caste Football and it’s members.........what a great source of information and inspiration CF has been!

There has to be more to it than this right? We cough up like $10/piece for the opportunity to bitch about affletes. Its a bit anticlimactic really, if this is the price.

To be able to do things on the site like have videos and pictures and editing it's alot more. I'm going to call them sometime next week to try and find out a more accurate complete price. Wish it was only 165. Hope it's not over 1000 but
I will find out more. You guys are welcome to call to and inquire. I'm just looking into it for all of us since Don has been busy and hasn't been posting much recently. Hope your doing good Don.

My stepping away has nothing to do with money and I've never written anything indicating that it is. The forum software and the monthly hosting fee isn't expensive. When CF was an actual site and not just a forum and had to be rebuilt from scratch a few times it was a different story, but not now. It's administering and moderating the forum that takes time and ability. I've not only posted over 25,000 times and wrote hundreds of articles before CF became strictly a forum, I've deleted thousands of spambots that otherwise would have swamped the forum as they register every day from third world countries, while also banning their IP addresses. I've also deleted lots of human trolls, and by doing so they're not nearly as frequent as they used to be; now they're usually more subtle and imo there's a few veteran posters who fall into that category. Whether I've been online or monitoring the forum while offline, it takes a lot of watching unless it's just turned into a free for all. Actually, though some think I was too strict a moderator, if I could start over I would have tried much harder to keep the focus positive and about White athletes and kept those with mostly negative agendas off.

Read the first post in this thread. It outlines some of the reasons why I'm stepping away. After various posters urged me to stay and said they would personally post more, I decided to continue through the football season to see if things would improve. Given how Caste Football has been buried and censored by Google and other search engines, increased posting along with outreach efforts by those who support CF was needed.

Can anyone make an argument that anything has changed for the better in the intervening six months? Leonardfan, Bucky and Freethinker tried to increase interest through Gab, and Leonardfan has been tireless in trying to reach potential new supporters, a few veteran posters "upped their game" and posted more often, but as for the rest little has changed, while excellent veteran posters like Shadowlight and Football Dad have disappeared. There's been a trickle of new posters but none post regularly. I've written over and over that posting begets more posting, which begets more interest and more traffic. But there's still just a small number of regular posters, with everyone else consisting of those who post occasionally, rarely, or never. That equals a forum that's slow or dead most of the time, especially in the mornings and afternoons. Occasionally it perks up in the evening for brief periods, but everyone besides the regulars who wants it to continue in one form or another should have been POSTING instead of mostly spectating.

Don I understand the frustration that you must feel but obviously not as much as you. The censorship is everywhere. All over the world. The powers that be want complete control. They censor on facebook, twitter, youtube, instagram, snap chat,
google and many other sites. People need to quit these sites forever.

The good news is that more people are waking up. People all around the world & especially whites are sick of this kind of attacks on free speech. There are already countless video sites that are not censored. Some examples are: bitchute, odysee, lbry.tv,
dtube, rumble, 153news.net, ugetube, etc. There are now also blockchain video sites popping up which cannot be censored. We will have uncensored blockchain social sites soon. Even sites like Gab are fighting back. My point is there is push back and
resistance and it's growing everyday. The current situation is bad but nothing that we cannot overcome. I've said for a long time a video channel would be great on one of these sites. We could have video hilites of all of our favorite players.

If you retire we understand. I just can't thank you enough. Everyone here owes you so much. I just don't want to give up this fight in sports, and all other aspects of society. Our forefathers would want us to fight till the end.

16 years of a website in todays world probably holds some type of value. A quick google search shows that a transfer of a website is fairly easy.
Its not worth much because if it ever became profitable they would just shut it down. Might as well go out with a bang. Maybe the Madcow herself would buy it and put up pictures of rainbows over drag queen story hours. Letting her know its for sale could drum up a little publicity. The ADL, SPLC or some hate group would want it for sentimental reasons. But it would be better than letting it go out in the dark.

Don was more than fair for giving an additional 6 months of life to the forum. Simply put the forum members did not deliver, not enough members posted, lurkers did not join in large numbers and the semi-active members never became more active and involved. I'm headed over to Gab and will be focusing my energy on continuing to expose the caste system over there. I tried every possible avenue I could think of to get exposure to Castefootball out there but it wasn't enough. This has been a great site and @Don Wassall has been generous to keep it going on his own for 16 years. If anyone decides to get a new forum going I will be more than happy to help with the administration of the forum and site. Anonymity is key especially with any sort of payments so tread carefully with that everyone.

So how long does the site have left? Can it go offline any day now?

It sounds like Don is in works with the hosting company to set the date for the site to go offline - It's probably going to happen sooner rather than later. If you want you can join the Gab group - once CF is gone many of us will be over there as refugees. @Freethinker set up a CF group on Gab so you should consider joining over there. It will be a different experience/interface but we can at the very lease keep the spirit of Caste Football alive and continue the message of the site.

If any of you lurkers want to join the GAB site please do so. If any of the long time posters see this before the site goes offline please come join us on Gab. Lets do our best to keep the CF community as intact as possible.

@Don Wassall it looks like CF has outlasted Weenieworld at least ;) If you try going to Rotoworld the address now resolves to the rebranded nbcsports.com/edge - thanks for everything good sir!

Glad to hear it. I’ve enjoyed your contributions to CF. Gab is different for sure but it serves a purpose in keeping the community together in some way until we figure out the next chapter in caste football.

Outlasting Weenieworld is a big deal! They’ve been as anti-White as an sports outlet out there, with the exception of the Undefeated.

We should share some of the JB cash articles if we haven't already. Its going to be more difficult to spread the truisms that CF has to offer considering even many racially aware whites will be skeptical that sports are manipulated with a social engineering slant
(HBDers as well as the system tells them it is because blacks are physically superior)
without being able to link back to the mountains of evidence CF has to offer assuming it is not backed up.

Best of luck in the new website, DW (u owe me a beer - or vice versa!) and everybody. Kool Kat Klub (half joke) is still there if anyone is interested (link below), and it was there before Caste Football too. The stoopid thing is outlasting perfectly sane and sensible forums!

But why would any self respecting White person still follow and support those knee bending black lives matter-loving football - or baseball and basketball - commy scum punks anyway?

Werewolf - did you create that forum for free? Do you pay hosting fees or anything like that?

Yes I would like to do that eventually. We are in a bind and needed something in addition to gab.com to make sure we continue this great message board even if it's under a new name.

I don't know what's going on but I'm locked out of the admin currently. I also signed up as one of the members. Just think of track and that's me. I will have to try to continue to figure out why
I'm locked out at the moment. Anyways, we can improve over time. I don't know anything about doing any of this stuff. If someone knows alot about message boards and setting them up please
feel free to help. At least we have a place to go that's similar. We all need to build it from the ground up. I hope Don Wassall will continue to post there when this site goes down.

I joined the forum WL. It's a start and thanks for getting the ball rolling. I agree with @Arerequired - making forums and then threads within each would be the best way to go. I do not see a way to do that logged in as a standard user.

White Lightning, take your time, I won't let CF be taken down until you figure out the basics. In fact, if some of the professional lurkers and professional semi-lurkers here would start posting more and show an actual commitment to Caste Football -- an apparent impossibility I know -- CF may stay up even longer.

I have no idea how to set this up. :eek:) I did it in a hurry today in between running errands. Then I noticed that all my info was showing to everyone including my email. In the process of trying to change that now I'm locked out of it. I will email them tonight or tommmorow and see if I can get my admin rights back. I guess if not we could use that platorm to start from scratch.

To my good long time friend Mr Wassall. My ultimate preference has and always would be to stay here. This place is home. It's your call but either way thanks for not rushing things too much. I think we an get this board better in the near future if we continue on
here at this site. If not I have high hoped for the new site. Just need to learn. It's like jumping in the deep end of the pool and not knowing how to swim. Hope my doggie paddle in forum web creation improves fast. The other option is to pay someone to help with the initial setup and organizing everything. Will keep you guys posted. I am glad you might maybe change your mind Don. No pressure or worries but we love it here.
