Your preaching to the choir, Maxpower. Your point has been brought up many, many times over the years. The chances are that SOM won't see your post. So send your thought to them. Maybe you'll get a bit of traction on this never ending, worthy topic.

Judging by the posts , as I suspected, Diamond Dope is widely used and is seen as a very useful tool.
Adrian, kudos to you for building a better mousetrap. It's like writing a terrific app.
I believe , whatever it will take financially to revitalize Diamond Dope can be easily achieved.. with a surplus even.
I'll write to Strat and I encourage others to do so, even though as Andy points out, this has fallen on deaf ears in the past.
But dam, Strat is raising prices on teams, it would only make sense to heed the demand for this .
Like many of you, I enjoy the heck out of this hobby.The Dope increases my enjoyment. But, I'm on the fence as to whether I want to continue to continue without a remedy to the situation.

I’ve got 2 credits left and my thinking is that if Diamond Dope isn’t operational by the time these last credits are used that I’ll likely hang it up.

Please, Strat, do something to keep this invaluable resource available to us.

The owner of the site is working on a solution. If you’d like to help now you could send a message to Strat suggesting they provide the servers to host the site.

Got this reply from SOM:

"We've gotten a lot of feedback on this of late.
We do recognize that this has been a longtime useful tool for the community, and is something we would like to retain the availability of its functionality for our userbase.

It's too preemptive to make any hard promises here, so without jumping the gun...
We might be able to look into how feasible it would be to implement some of its functionality into the main site."
