I haven’t been active that much recentish (like past week or so), and I always figured HH would always be here. I’m glad I came back in time to say goodbye and find new ways to contact peoples. Thank you so much to everyone who made this forum this forum.

I literally cannot process the end of HHF, partially because I've been having a rough few days, but also mostly because maybe I just kept the goodness of this forum for granted and always thought that at the end of the day, I'd still have HH. But I completely understand why you've made this decision, although it being rough. I'll cherish the memories and friends I've made here!! I'm glad I was here for two years, though it feels just like yesterday. <3

Best wishes for the future, dusty!
It must have been a challenge to maintain a forum for so long. HH has been a great place to share info, ask questions, and hang out over the years.

And thank you to everyone for making HH what it is. It’s been such a huge part of my life for the last 2 years. I appreciate every single one of you, the conversations I’ve had, the friends I’ve made.
I know it’s already quite sappy so I’ll stop here lol
Pleaseeeee keep in touch!
My instagram is MK.magnifico
And we have a hamster knowledge discord server, a bunch of us are on there, and I think more people have joined so that’s awesome! Tater made a post about that
I’m very sad but also appreciative of everything that y’all and Dusty have done! Thanks for making this corner of the internet special <333

Wow...I haven't been active really for about 6 months now and I'm just really sad to hear this
Dusty, thank you for running this community for over 20 years, I truly hope you the best in life
To everyone- I know I didn't really talk too often during my time here (almost 2 years...wow) but I wanted y'all to know that I'll miss you all and everything that HH has provided me <33

Is it possible to transfer ownership of the forum? I’m sure someone would love to take it over. If not, it’s worth a try to attempt finding a new owner. I mean, what is there to lose? I also used to frequent this site in its glory days. I was very sad to see that it was going away. It would be awesome to appoint a new owner and restore the greatness that was HHF. I’m sure a lot of the newer members would appreciate being able to experience HH like we did when it had an active team of mods.

I will never forget this site, it had helped many others connect with others to be able to help each other out ): in a way we were all ham family.
