Hi,
We have updated our web presence to better represent our refocused business models and the decision was made to remove the forum as there are many other larger forums on the web with information and support for our products. We feel that running and maintaining a forum is not part of our core business plan.
Bunch of noise.
I did immediately contact their "support" (aka non-support) asking if the forums were lost of if they'd return... crickets.
Last week, KnC tweeted (
https://twitter.com/kncminer/status/575024006312689664) that they are in the process of updating their web presence - implying that the forum will return.
We're in the process of updating our web presence, if you have a question pls contact r support dep. via kncminer.com
Then again, it seems folly to believe what they tell us.
