Hi all,

As you may be aware, things have been a little quiet lately at IJTS, particularly because of unforseen circumstances.

I regret to inform you all that as a result, I have made the decision that IJTS will shut down today at 21:00 hours British Time (One year exactly since the website was created).

The main reason why I am posting this message though is to say THANKYOU to everyone who made IJTS a special place to be in. I feel that the initial and long lasting interest in IJTS represents how strong of a community there is at Ship Simulator.
However, I also know that IJTS has had its run. But, I'd like to think that we as a community made a great difference to Ship Simulator 08 MP, and made it very enjoyable in times that it was quiet.

I'd like to thank EVERYONE, both here and at IJTS for making my time here enjoyable, and for all the fantastic memories that I have with you all online. I'd also particularly like to thank the staff at IJTS, for their amazing work. Without them IJTS would never of taken off!, nor would it of worked without its fantastic members. So once again, thankyou very much to you all

I wish you all the very best for the future.

Kind Regards,
Jack.

Hi Jack,

I'm sorry to hear about IJTS, but real life means we have to move on. IJTS cetainly was popular here among the community, and I will be sad to see it go.

However, best luck with your exams and future, you certainly deserve it!

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #12 on:** October 24, 2010, 22:12:25 »

Hi guys,

I just took the site down as per Jacks request. RIP IJTS

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #13 on:** October 24, 2010, 22:13:37 »

Wrong smilie...

Farwell IJTS... we will miss you

freeciv · « **Reply #14 on:** October 24, 2010, 22:16:55 »

RIP IJTS

I was on the site when it shut down so I can still read on page as long as I don't hit refresh.

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #15 on:** October 24, 2010, 22:18:33 »

Hi Freeciv,

That's because the site is cached in your browser. When click back, Hit F5 again and it will be offline.

It's a sad day, but time must move on

freeciv · « **Reply #16 on:** October 24, 2010, 22:19:43 »

I guess your right *sniffle* It's to bad it had to go...

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #17 on:** October 27, 2010, 10:07:50 »

Hi all,

Thankyou for your really nice comments...They're really touching.

However, I decided to back track on my decision! Partly because people were still wanting to keep IJTS open, and were willing to help out.

I've made a post here explaining what's happened.

http://80.95.161.114/shipsim/forum/index.php/topic,22208.msg296360.html#msg296360

Although I personally mightn't be as active as I used to be, I will try my best to be around when I have the time. I'm hoping to have some more time on my hands after November, as I will of taken my Maths exam by then. A few months later i'll be starting the Nautical College, but I hope that i'll have just enough time on my hands to run IJTS.

Kind Regards,
Jack.

So what's going on with the site Jack? I'm gaining some more time on my hands....

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #21 on:** November 01, 2010, 08:43:24 »

Hi Matt,

It's being re-opened with a brand new website to go with it

Jack
p.s. the Forum will be as it was though (with all posts), with a new 'fresh' look.
