Hi, I don't visit there very often but it is still active with some posts this month.
I don't recall them changing their website address but just in case this is the link I usually use. http://myarmoury.com/talk/index.php |

Noticed that for some time. Shame, as there's a great thread on English rapier blade types that I wanted to add to.

... And now MyArmoury has been down for several weeks. It seemed to be a pretty active forum so it's surprising that it just disappeared like that. Does anyone have more information about what is going on over there?
EDIT: Hm, seems like it might be a outdated software induced forum death: https://sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/t...moury-com-shut https://sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/t.../deal-myarmory |

And as another forum related datapoint, aside from unsuccessfully having been trying to register at myarmoury for the last two years, I've also tried several times during that same time frame to register with swordforum.com, only to be thwarted by the captcha you need to complete during registration, which does not load.

Just checked. There are a few 'edged weapons' items on it, postage & customs to UK is outrageous tho, so I've stopped using them. Those in the EU may have better rates. |

Yeah, they still do some ethnographic arms as part of tribal art auctions, and there are still samurai auctions, but the weekly edged weapons auctions are gone. I wonder where all those sellers moved to now.

I just exchanged emails with Chad Anrow, Nathan's right hand guy. Nathan has been unresponsive even to him. Chad hopes someone will work it out, For the time being, I can suggest using archive.org for reading either board. SFI similarly, no responses via the board but you can try pinging Mark on Facebook (him direct or the SFI page), as he is quite done with my suggestions.

MyArmoury seems to be back up!
Still can't register, though. |
