Don't know if anyone else here read this site but it's been one of my
favourites for many years now, very sad to see it go. Seems the lead
writers there already have plans for a new project which will fill the
gap, I really hope they can manage it as I'll miss it badly if it goes
entirely. Damn you AOL, yes, I know, economic downturn and all that,
but it is (was) a very valuable site for the community; I always felt
their more indepth and personal/community articles complemented the
more database and news-driven content of MMO-C and Wowhead, the three
together gave a great balance of coverage for me.

I'm in the process of saving copies of what looks like being several
hundred Know Your Lore articles, in case they go offline entirely, as
I always found them a great way to catch up on bits of story I missed,
or good for some interesting speculation - it's actually very hard to
not start reading them as I go along, but I'll never finish if I do
that!
