This was the statement they made at DAZ:

*Well, it's done, between today and tomorrow we'll close the forum.
We'll create a new static page a provide to give some useful links.

Now, answering to some question :

1-We do ALL our best to keep alive Aery Soul and the forum. Really. Unfortunately time goes and after lots of months we take our decision and simply we cannot wait forever for other people's action.

2-Our products will continue to stay in the various stores until we take the last steps. We cannot give any support in the meanwhile.

3-We are cornered, tens of aliens around us and just the last clip of ammo in our marine's rifle. If we survive there are a chance we can continue to create poser product. In few words : we play our last hand and only the future may say if we win or lose (until now we lose only!)

4-We'll backup and store our forum. After all we don't want to loose a forum created SEVEN years ago.

Well.
Thanks to all.
Really*
