Does anyone know what happened to “the uncommon guitar forum”? It wasn’t very active but had a lot of good historical content. I was making my way through some older threads there and suddenly the site completely disappeared? I know some members from here were members there also so wondering if somebody knows?
What happened to “The uncommon guitar forum”?

It was Les’ forum. I believe he pulled it because it was taking up too much of his time.

As @Alnus Rubra said, Les closed it to focus on other things. It had a lot of historical content because most of us were pretty historical. Lol

“Pretty Historical” = Pre-Historic.

what? what? why was i not invited to this party? a les forum would be bigger than this place.
It was my forum. I closed it for two reasons:
First, it took up a fair amount of time I thought would be better spent creating music. Second, only s handful of people posted there, which made owning it feel more like a vanity project than something worthwhile.
I even had a "for sale" section that people could list their instruments/amps/pedals on for free. Very few people took me up on that offer, and no one gave a rat's ass.
So I killed it.
I'm glad you found it useful, though. Hey, I'm still full of the very same BS, except I spout it here instead!

write a charter declaring yourself 'the orchestral institute' and ask government partners to support the forum, then ask them to support your research.

Can't. Conflict of interest.
I'm already receiving government and institutional grants testing whether my music can compete successfully against an Infinite Number of Monkeys, who are also writing orchestral music pecking one key for an Infinite Length of Time on an Infinite Number of Keyboards.
The government refers to it as the Infinite Monkey Test.
The good news is that I get paid the moment I beat the monkeys!
"Who's ahead as of today, Les?"
"The monkeys...Yeah, I know. But there are so many of them."
"OK, well, what's the biggest problem you face?"
"So far it's the smell coming from their studio."
