      I was a big fan of Invisionfree. used to play Survivor ORGs on there. Tapatalk bought out zetaboards, the supposedly "upgraded" version of invisionfree that actually was worse, then transitioned all the already-zeta boards to tapatalk's own system which is WAY WAY WAY worse (zeta was at least usable) but they just straight up deleted any invision boards that weren't "upgraded" to zeta on time. They were doing transfers from the servers for awhile and I was able to "rescue" the games I hosted that way but so many boards are just gone now. And Invision had custome themes so the boards were pretty but tapatalk has just one ugly ass theme that sucks ass and I hate it.

      They also bought out Yuku, deleted a bunch of inactive boards (including mine, that had some important memories on it) and transfered the active ones to their shitty system.

      I fucking hate them.
