EP, Don't Pull the Plug on Blogs Because...
There has not been adequate notification. You could have sent email notification, but you didn't. You could have sent a personal message about the imminent shutdown to every member, but you didn't. You could have posted huge signs all over the site about this deadline, but you didn't. All you did was post a sign at people's own blogs. MANY people missed that. Many people were away from EP or not tending to their blogs lately. Many people I notified had heard nothing about it! Life can make one busy! Lately I've been preoccupied with fighting scabies. It is only by ACCIDENT that I discovered about the shutdown coming. You should not punish the people who missed that!
If you do go ahead with the execution of blogs, you should save people's blogs so that they can receive the file upon request.
