Word! The time has come:

It is an end of an era today: MonstaPro is set to close.

"What?!" I hear you cry! "What has happened to engender such a travesty!?..."

Long story short: the team have all had a lot happen in our personal lives over the last year (and then some), and as a result MonstaPro's (obviously) marvellous content, that has largely withstood the test of time, is now being neglected. Controversially, this would normally mean closing a site, unless either donated hosting or an investor with very deep pockets could be found.

Fortunately, as we've not really been on the good side of reality from the start of this project, we don't feel encumbered by such rules.

This is why Carpet and Alan have decided that, in order to give the brand and its content a fighting chance in today's web-app dominated, iPhone-ready, HTML5-supporting world; we are moving MonstaPro! Since it's definitely no longer April Fool's, you can safely assume that "this is not a trick". "MonstaPro is dead! Long live MonstaPro!"

Well, the dead part is not strictly true; as seen on our Facebook page (that for some reason is most Googled in Malayalam):

"We are currently switching to a new platform that we feel will give a new life to our content, while helping us keep it up-to-date."

"The archives are still online, and are available at http:///monstapro.co.uk, http://monsterpro.co.uk and http://tinyurl.com/88eam."

So while being readily available for your viewing pleasure for the foreseeable future, any and all changes to the MonstaPro collection will only happen to the content we re-house at our new site, located at the marvellous http://monstapro.wordpress.com. That is also where any new successful Submissions will be hosted, please get in touch there for more information. You will want to change your MonstaPro-related bookmarks.

Yes, that means some lucky people will technically be under the MonstaPro umbrella twice, that's completely not intended to put particular pieces of content in a biased light. Not at all. We are still accepting Submissions: the latest version of The Rules is now hosted over there, the copy here will be marked as an archival copy and will only be publically accessible in that form. Promise.

There may be unforeseen issues that prevent or somehow impede us copying over content (or parts of some content) from "the old" to the new. We aplogise if this happens to you, it is probably unavoidable. We will make efforts to contact you if such an event occurs, but if you choose not to respond, or if we cannot gain contact with you, we will assume you are at least willing to accept our decision. Contact details are available on the new Rules page.

Not all of MP's content will be available on the new site quickly. This in part due to us having lives now. That could be approached as being inconvenient, unfortunately we can't help or assist alleviating such a situation.

We aim to still provide the same service as previously, but this time we intend to keep up with demand! There are some items we're looking at this week, for example, that have been waiting for our attention for more than a month. We would like to extend our apologies to those people involved, our crack editor is reviewing your words right now, and we intend to reveal the outcomes from that review soon. Keep an eye on the new site for details...

Just to recap:

  1. We've moved.
  2. Change your bookmarks!
  3. We are still accepting Submissions.
  4. Shifting the entire Archive will take a while (Carpet "can smell it").
  5. There is more stuff to go up soon.
  6. Our Editor states that he doesn't smoke crack.

Cheers, ears! Laterz potataz...
