Now in all seriousness, I think that somehow we saw this coming. It's a pity because I still had some hopes of having the old site back, specially because of the gallery, but apparently it's not coming back and I certainly love the new site. Sam and Marliz have done a great work putting it up and managing it and they somehow also managed to gather us all again after months and months of waiting. As for the name I would miss the current/ former name, but if it's what it takes to avoid legal issues, then I'd support a name change. I agree with Ezz and Bogo and all the rest about how inconsiderate is for us to learn about this through a Facebook comment. They could at least have responded to any of the multiple messages Marliz and Sam sent them. On the other hand, Marliz, I totally sympathize. I was under the impression that they had promoted you just to free themselves from a bunch of responsibilities, but at the end of the day I think that it bought some more time for the old website. i'd also want to thank Francy for caring about us. We definitely need someone to contact Sharifa right now. PS: @stuntbrick Ban Daids rules as a replace name You promoting the queen in everything you do. I'm being bored to sum up such a thread with a long post. So i repost this.

It is sad to hear that the original Bandaids is gone. I was an active member on that site from 2004 for many years and a moderator for a short while. I first found the site back 2003 and used to enjoy searching through all the bootleg files and videos, back in the days before Youtube. I was 17/18 and now I'm 30..damn I feel old. Anyway good luck finding a solution to al of this. I do like to check in every so often, despite not listening to Avril's music for a long time now, I do look forward to seeing what she does next musically

Well I guess I'm not surprised but I wish we had been told what was going on. This could have been handled a bit better. I can understand that the admins of the original site are all adults now with full time jobs, but they could have allowed someone with more time to run it. I had been lurking on her but had not made an account because I was waiting for the old bandaids, but if it's not coming back why wait any long. I miss posting on the forum. I probably read what you wrote. It didn't register. I promise to read it again s**n. Maybe I'll reply. Maybe I won't . Your screen name made me go youtube and listen to 'Paperback Writer' by the Beatles. I could be lost for days. I never know.

The only thing I'll really miss about the old site is the gallery. Yeah it is a real shame to lose it. I feel bad for those who spent so many hours uploading all those pics. And now we also no longer have them. I'm 100% sure Sharifa has a backup of it. So, let's see how it'll go

So now what should we think? Please tell me if there's any hope for this site (I don't care if it's temporary or not) to go on... we need a site like AvrilBandaids We do!! We need to talk about things about Avril and so... I can't imagine the fact of no Bandaids.. I've been on the official BA since 2006, that's liike 9 years and mostly I visit the forums everyday.

We'll officially become a Rachel Lester fan site with a little sub forum dedicated to some singer named Advil Lasagna, or something like that. Who is that anyway? Rachel has like 4 more cassettes than her

That kind of sucks if the site is definitely gone for good.... I thought it was upsetting seeing the Evan Bandaids sister site get taken away; I was the main administrator of that site and we had a small group put hours and hours for weeks and months into it but looking back on everything I did on Avril Bandaids, specifically all the hard work the media team put into the site for so many years... It just really sucks.
But seeing as the original site hasn't been online in months, I was kind of expecting to hear it wasn't coming back at some point... Hopefully since sharifa is letting you guys link this forum, it's just a misunderstanding.
