does anyone know what server they used? Was it proboards? It is a blog and not a forum with a small group of people contributing content looks like. When they say defunded what they have done is pull all ad revenue. The blog continues to be up and running but will not be able to collect any revenue from the host. So if they wish to go forward it will be at their own expense. As the economy tightens ad revenue will be in shorter supply I imagine. Who do you cut first? Why the least popular opinion out there and the most controversial that's who! The host will keep the most popular to keep their advertiser dollars cut rolling in.

I had a quick look at Organic Prepper after seeing this thread. Maybe I missed something, but the site looked a lot like a collection of very short stories aimed at selling books written by people presented as prepping experts. I'd much rather buy a gardening book written by DirtDiva.

Counting on Aamazon or Google for income is probably not a good move for preppers. I think that she is figuring that out now. I do believe that it's ok to get money for preps where you can and when you can, but it shouldn't be a surprise when the left leaning company you are working for has a problem with your right leaning ideas.
I haven't heard of any specific cases of proboards censoring their users, but once again, you are at the mercy of another and that should be a concern.
Dirtdiva, do you have a link to your book?

Dirtdiva, do you have a link to your book? johngalt I totally agree with that assessment. Also while I greatly appreciate the sentiment there is no book. What I know I share freely on the few prepper websites I visit. I do need to murder frostbite though he can be sweet and supportive to an old ornery gardener lady (when not lusting after Swedish backpackers). He is also full of bull hockey just ask Mrs. Frostbite. I occasionally post on Doomsday Prepper forum mostly in the gardens thread. I post most regularly on a garden thread on the Ausprep site that SAHunter set up for me and a recipes and canning thread there as well. It is the sister site to this one. Other than that I just consult as a master gardener locally in my own community. I just happen to have about 50 years of experience, gardening, growing fruit, canning and preserving, raising livestock, knitting, sewing, quilting, soap making and just all around living off the land and enjoying a very rural homesteading lifestyle. No books on the horizon.

I got it now. I can be a little slow at times.
Your knowledge is appreciated and will be kept in mind for a later date. I don't frequent those other forums, so I will look here for your help, if that is ok?

I don't frequent those other forums, so I will look here for your help, if that is ok? That is fine and you are not slow. We have had time to learn each other and our ways and we tend to enjoy picking on one another from time to time. You are new here and will get used to it. They tend to be a great bunch of guys. And I am always willing to help a fellow prepper if I know the answer.

I had to look up the meaning of bull hockey. Mrs Frostbite would agree, I'm all talk. Although there was this one time in a very dark glow worm cave in New Zealand when I thought the lady I was cuddling was the wife, but actually happened to be a very attractive blonde backpacker (perhaps Swedish). I had no idea of the mistaken identity (it was pitch black) until after the tour was over, and the good wife laughed and asked had I enjoyed myself.
