Another Update on Granger Enchanted--bad news

[madeleone]

Just passing this on since I posted recently about it. Apparently GE will not be able to be restored to transfer to AO3 (see copy of FB post below). If anyone did donate, (like I did) none of the donations were accepted. Here's what I did and it worked fine, go into your paypal account and cancel  the payment for that transaction, the money will be put into your own pay pal account. You can leave it there for future paypal payments or have it transferred back to your bank account, (I think there might be fees to do that though). I donated $20 and I'm thinking of just sending $10 each to ASH and TPP via paypal to keep the fanfic love alive. :)  I'm very sad to see GE go as I liked the Hermioine Centric nature of the site. :(

It is with a heavy heart that I make the announcement that Granger Enchanted will not be returning. I want to thank each and every one of you for the support leading up to this week, especially my amazing admin who took over the site when my personal life took over my online one .

The plan had always been to save Granger Enchanted in some way and up until today the plan to reinstate the site and remain open as an archive was only days away. At approximately 2pm Australian ti...me I received an email from my Web host explaining that although they were willing to reinstate the site there wasn't any point as they'd already deleted all the data and the site was no more.

I was understandably devastated and having had no Internet or computer downloading the site had been impossible.

I want to thank each and every one of you for all the contributions over the past ten years, the blood sweat and tears my fantastic team have put in voluntarily and with little to no reward is awe inspiring and the friendships we've made will last a lifetime.

I wish you all the best of luck in life and the future and hope we meet again across some crazy fandom convention.

Much love,
MistressMalfoy

That is sad news indeed :(
I'm sorry to see GE go. So many archives are disappearing.
