Imzy closing down
Hello tarot friends,
You may have already seen the sad news and if not, here's the annoucement. Imzy is shutting down.
Here are some dates to keep in mind:
- June 16th - site becomes read-only
- June 21st - until then we will still be able to acess our data
- June 23rd - no more Imzy
I cannot express how sad I was to hear this news. Imzy is a wonderful place and it will be missed. I had great hopes for this community and I thought it would really be able to take off with enough time - sadly, it wasn't given enough time.
I'm willing to continue the tarot events until the 16th, it would give us three more Wednesdays to host it on.
Now, I believe this place gave some people a chance to practice their readings, introduced a couple of people to tarot and gathered some really nice people in one place. I'm very reluctant to lose this and I'm up for moving the community somewhere else and continuing to run it. Would anyone be interested? What platform would you prefer? Keeping in mind that the reading events require a kind of post-and-comments system to be supported by the site, a Facebook group could potentially work. I also know of people moving over to Dreamwidth (there's an imzy-in-exile community over there now).
Please use this post to discuss whether you'd like to see this community continue elsewhere and if so, where. You're also invited to leave links to social networks where people can find you if you'd like to keep in touch. I can be contacted on my tumblr or emailed on greydragonmagic@gmail.com, I will welcome messages with ideas for restarting the community in a different corner of the internet.
Edit: I started setting up a community on Dreamwidth, it's called tarotreading.




I just tried out Dreamwidth for the first time. It's a bit confusing at first but I'm starting to really like it! It could be a great replacement for what we had here. There is a community named "tarot" over there already so we might need a more creative name c: I'd prefer to avoid having to use Facebook (somehow people are always meaner on Facebook) so so far I vote for Dreamwidth! Find me here.
I also felt that imzy and this community also could really thrive given the time. I wish I'd had more time to participate here. I'd love to see this comm pop up someplace else. Like everyone else, it seems, I'm considering a move to dreamwidth. I have accounts there that I haven't logged into in years.
Thanks for your support <3 I set up a Tarot community for us called tarotreading.
I'm so sad to see imzy closing its doors. I really enjoy it here and I too think it could've thrived if given more time. I would love to see this community find a new home. I'm down with dreamwidth. I'm coffeeontherocks overthere.
