I'm making a come back after being gone so long and super upset Cyphos is down. Also seems like Frontosa.com doesn't get too much action either..
This comeback is going to be tougher then I thought
Cyphos.com died a long, slow death. The simple summary is it was neglected first by one owner, almost died until it was sold to another guy who started out great but eventually also neglected it. Site sponsors and mainstays of the site dropped off progressively, it stumbled along on life support for a few years, before it shut down-- overdue hosting fees, etc. I was there to the end. Too bad. A huge volume of quality information, research, breeding advice, support for a popular niche in the hobby, etc. was lost.
Frontosa.com is its own story. Another simple summary is a few refugee malcontents from cyphos got together, rejuvenated an old site, and had ambitions to rival cyphos.com and conquer the world. It went reasonably well... for a while.
