A very long time ago I offered auroraclubna.com email addresses. Quite a lot of the active members at the time took me up on the offer but times change and I am doing away with my hosting service. Along with it will go those addresses and the auroraclubna.com domain. They will expire on 12/31/2018.
I suggest backing up any email you want from the service and moving any accounts you have registered to that email address before 12/31/2018. After 12/31/2018 everything will be deleted and unrecoverable. If anyone has questions on how to save email feel free to contact me and I will help in any way I can.

SD, I had to pop in and say thank you (if you ever read this). I have used my ACNA email as my main email since getting it, God, when was that 2007? Till day (seems like support went dark this morning).

It was my pleasure to offer the service but it is time to get rid of my hosting service. I have had it for over 15 years now but I just don't use it for anything anymore. I had been holding on to it for the last 5 years without any real plan to start using it again.
As of right now I still have access to the old accounts. Their email addresses have been renamed. If you want access to your account let me know and I will get you the new username so you can backup your old email. I am not sure how long they will be around. It is possible the backups will be there until I cancel the rest of my services in May.

I still have all of the photos from the picture hosting service but the URL has been discontinued so the link from the forum doesn't go to the right place anymore. I discussed it with the ACNA staff before it was discontinued and they elected not to take over the yearly fees for the URL. If someone else wants to register the URL they probably can. It doesn't look like a squatter has taken it over.
In any case, I can provide a dump of all of the uploaded pictures if anyone wants it. It is a fairly trivial task. From there you could rehost your images on imgur and edit your posts with the new URL so they would show up in the forum again.

There are quite a few different options for webhosting. The URL itself will cost $15-$20 per year for registration. Then you will need a webhost of some kind to hold your data. They vary a bit but will typically cost $5 to $15 per month depending on what you want. The service I am using until I finish cancelling it costs about $12 per month. In many cases they will give you a free .com URL with your webhosting service.
I will send you a link to the zip file of the imagehost directory. It is bigger than I thought it would be. Seems like quite a few people were using it.

I never really paid that much attention to the use. I have unlimited storage and bandwidth so it didn't make any difference to me.

Whoa, just now seeing this. I was one of the users but it just seemed to be a dumping ground for junk mail. No harm no foul.
