I'd say this site is a forced continuation of BSDforums, the owner was a slacker and wouldn't keep it updated.. deal with the spam, or give anyone else access to the server.
I wouldn't say exactly that, over the years I've seen many people at volunteer positions do the same thing, they lose interest, or time, or it simply isn't as fun as it used to be, but they don't know when to go ...

But yeah, it certainly is a "forced continuation". I would much rather have continued at bsdforums.org. We tried to approach the Administrator of bsdforums.org, but he was uncooperative.
