It's a bummer. Its amazing what people have been able to do with their hacks and it's sad that they won't be updating the site with any new files.
If anything it just feels like another shot to the underground side of gaming that didn't need to happen on top of the pressure from companies like Nintendo and how it handled the gray area of roms.
Honestly I doubt that the community will go away any time soon, but speaking as someone who has been here since the break from Pixeltendo, having seen several different situations unfolded over the years because of what happened in the previous generation of TVGR and how several of the older members who were here mainly when this was simply The Spriters Resource I would say at this point the BBS forums will likely be phased out at bear minimum.
It's not a change I want to see personally but at this point I don't think there is much dodging it.
