Definitely a small group. Basically a portion of people that spun off from The Dude Pit community when drama killed that forum.
I haven't been active at the Outpost in years but I still would check it and I noticed a couple weeks ago it went down, around Aug. 21st. Did some searching on TB and someone there said that Dave W, the main admin, was on it but it must be a complicated issue since that was said on the 23rd.
If it comes back, a lot of the regulars that remain are pretty cool including Uwe, that German guy with an staggering number of Gibson basses.
