A simple, "Due to personal issues, donations are requested at this time to help get the forum on it's feet. Please give anything you can via x to get to our tentative goal of x. Thanks for your support," posted on SFV would go a long way towards making it a more inclusive situation without being terribly specific. Sure, there are going to be people who bother you for more information, but that's always going to happen.
Coming to another forum, rather than posting on your own, is going to cause questions just like the ones already asked. I get that rds is kinda playing monkey in the middle. SIH(understandably) has bigger fish to fry, and rds is trying to satisfy those asking questions. If you have time to email, you can delegate some responsibility to another willing soul. If you really don't want to deal with the hassle, then just close down the forum altogether and let the chips fall where they may.
That's just my 2 cents, with no ax to grind, based on what I've seen here and other sites since the forum went down this last time.

I actually like the idea of a wcif here because I like reading and finding them. And at least the wcifs will be (hopefully) contained to one area so they can be (hopefully) easily avoided by anyone who is annoyed by them.

Hey Paden, I loved your post. Whether you're writing from the heart or some other part of your anatomy, you always seem to get right to it I'd like a WCIF, too. My questions are usually obscure and no one can help much on other forums. Plus, I like to help in the rare instance when I actually remember where I got something.

My my things have certainly changed. I remember when SIH was on Geocities with one picture of a bed going neener neener. Yes I know I am late to this but I agree with everyone here this stinks. Do we even know for sure that this RDS person is actually in contact with SIH or that they aren't taking the opportunity to profit from the demise of SFV. I haven't seen SIH post anything just alot or relaying back and forth. I'm not being mean but ya know when you've seen this sorta thing since the Sim 1 days you kinda get good at sniffing out the shit even when its been sprayed down with Gucci.

It's all being taken care of without the possibility of scams, so not to worry

rds is a personal friend of SIH, not just over the internet but in RL as well. She is also a moderator over at the SFV. Nouk is right, we are taking care of things to the best of our knowledge (and Nouks help has been priceless) and a few of us have set up a forum somewhere else. http://www.simscave.com/ferris/index.phpIt's not the SFV, whether the SFV comes back up is beyond our knowledge - but we've set up a place for sim 1-ers, general filesharing and chat. We don't have a TSR section, people are being directed to the booty. Yeah, that's all I can say about it at this moment

Well, that is a good start charlotte. It's a good thing to come up with alternatives when SFV seems to be down forever.

Well I am certainly glad to hear that people are looking out for those in the community. I wish the members of SFV the best in re-establishing their community.

I am right at home at the simscave. I do hope that everyone from the old SFV checks it out. I just wanted to pubically throw my support out there for this new place before this thread *hopefully* dies!
