For those of us who remember the Safehouse, I have some sad news; looks like the site is going to go away at the end of June. I just saw on Facebook that the few posts on the forums don't justify the hosting costs and so the community is moving over to Discord.

Time to make your peace, grab copies of anything you are scared to lose and maybe move any classic guides over to the wiki for posterity.

Hi everyone! Seeing as the discord seems to work well, I'm going to shut down the website at the end of June. Discord has seen more activity than the forums have in years and it's free. I'd rather stop wasting money on a couple of posts per year - the server does cost a fair bit of money each month by itself and there is also the yearly cost for the domain name. Unless someone wants to throw more money in my direction to cover for the cost of a domain/forum that isn't used. But I'd feel bad asking for more money that's basically just used to keep a unused relic from the past visible.

Good riddance, I remember those spergs getting upset when I asked about twinking out a rogue. Something stupid about how rogues used to suck and it was some kind of badge of honor for leveling one untwinked. Never went back to that place.

I just hope they don't block the wayback machine like so many of the old EQ sites did.

It's a forum rather than a static site, so it's possible the Way back Machine will struggle.

Why the fuck would you want to twink a rogue? Get out there and earn your gear like everyone had to.

I remember checking out the Safehouse many times over when I played on Live back in '99.

The site was one of the first wikis for Rogue quests and the guild I was in wanted us to do the Burning Rapier quest. Do not ask me why...
