Text: Trespassers Forgiven

"The time has come," the Walrus said...

...to talk of the sad business of closing the comm.

It has been a bit over two weeks since we offered up the community to any takers, but no one has adopted it. So, we 're going to close it down.

This is a heads-ups to any of our past participants that do not have the drabbles they wrote for us archived yet. If you want them, get them now, because the community will be deleted by the end of April. We would hate to see some of the wonderful drabbles produced to be lost.

Best wishes,
Sam!Mod and Leigh!Mod

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, adieu...

To our fellow Bill and Fleur lovers,

As you've all noticed, this community has been fairly inactive since the end of Round Two in 2010. We were hoping to run a third round last spring, but we received a low number of responses. Fandom is a fluctuating place, and we understand that. We know that just because Bill and Fleur aren't the most popular pairing, that doesn't mean they aren't beloved by their shippers.

Your Sam!Mod and I have discussed this, and we've decided to hang our modly hats up at this community. We're both sad about it, but we've seen that there isn't enough interest for us to run another round. We thank you all for making this community such a great place to be! *HUGS*

If you are interested in adopting bwfd_ldws, please shoot us an e-mail at bill.fleur.ldws@gmail.com. If we do not hear from any prospective parents within TWO WEEKS, we will have to make a tough decision.

Again, thank you so much for being such wonderful members of this community. It has been a pleasure being your mods!

With love,

Leigh (leigh_adams) and Sam (fiery_flamingo)

If you could take the time to fill out our short little poll, fiery_flamingo and I would much appreciate it! :D

Edit: I screwed up formatting the last question. It should have been ticky boxes, so if you think you'll participate in more than one way, feel free to tell us in the comments!
