I hope the hell it is. Please let us know, Skymouse.

Dunno, Grant, but as the link gives a 404 Page Not Found error, it looks like Wet Set deleted it, whatever it said. It's a fair bet, therefore, that it was a hoax or not true or libellous or whatever! ;) Now I'm wondering what it said...??? :confused:

This is without a doubt a very lame hoax. I've removed the post from the wetset board, but here's a screen-capture to clue-in the regulars of this more civilised board:

It was a hoax.
Whew! What a relief! For a while there I was almost contemplating suicide. ;)

Further to this hoax, anyone interested can take a look at this google query which gives details of other posts made on the wetset forums by the same person (IP:69.113.202.59, different name each time). http://www.google.com/search?as_q=69.113.202.59&num=10&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=wetset.net&as_rights=&safe=off You'll see that a lot of the posts are similarly juvenile. Fun fun fun!

Thanks, Kate! :) If Sky only had one server as that message suggests, I would get really worried! :p With his luck and gremlin mice about, the service would never last long enough to be withdrawn!!! :p Seriously, I'm sure the server's not lost... it just got buried under a pile of towels one of the models left lying about... :lol:

There was a similar mesage on WetSet a while ago purporting to come from Paul himself, saying that the WetSet site was about to close! I emailed Paul to check that it wasn't true, and he removed it.
