The Avon Lady's OFP FAQ will be shutting down

[theavonlady 2]

Since I have not been actively maintaining The FAQ and my site in general for some 2 years now, I will be changing my domain's hosting account to something simpler and less expensive that will not be able to handle hosting all the pages and files I am currently hosting. This change will take effect a few days prior to the end of March 2007.

Please feel free to copy anything currently available from my site. If you publicize any copied materials, I ask that you please note that the materials are courtesy of TheAvonLady.Org.

I'm not disappearing off the face of the Internet. Only my site's content is.

Couldn't have said it better. Avon Lady's OFP FAQ is legendary. You can't mention the OFP community without mentioning the OFP FAQ.

Thanks for all the effort and hopefully we will see an ARMA FAQ as well sooner or later

Hope you will still be around avon! I've been on this forum for 5 years now and will miss you Well as the saying goes "all good things must come to an end"

Hey AvonLady I've never expected to hear from you anything again since you 'disappeared' from the community sites.

I'm sure someone will mirror all the good infos and stuff from your site which surely helped most of us Veterans with their first steps in OFP.

A big thankyou from me too for all work you've done for us.

Thank you Avon for all the hard work during the years of OFP. Your FAQ was legendary indeed and has helped me with OFP in many occasions

[=jps=sgtrock 4]

I have fond memories of being shot repeatedly by The Avon Lady on one of the few occasions that I could get the MP stuff to run. This was back before the first patch was out, I think. I stumbled across mention of her FAQ on the boards here and found it to be a very useful resource.

I will miss it, too. Thank you for all of your quality work!

OFP world will never be the same when Avon is not there any more.

Thanks Avon for all the info gathered around OFP on your site over the past years! Very much appreciated. Your site was always around when i needed to know something and couldn't find it. This huge source of information around OFP will be missed by a lot of people i am sure. Thanks again for your hard work!

OFP world will never be the same when Avon is not there any more.

I have been out of gaming for quite some time now both because of real life demands and also because my Dell XPS notebook has overheating spasms now and then.

I hope to find free time for getting back to gaming once Vista becomes stable and new generation high end notebooks are available to take advantage of Vista.

So I should be back in 20 years.

I'll be around.

Thanks for your website mate, it helped me loads when I was getting to grips with OFP and helped me with many problems!

Hopefully I'll see you around in ArmA sometime, but if not ... I wish you all the best of luck in the future

Hey Mom

We´d be glad to offer you a hosting for the old pages if you like.

Would be sad to see this piece of OFP history disappear. Drop me a msg if you´re interested.

Like I said, anyone can copy anything from The FAQ. All I ask is crediting my website theavonlady.org.

Do you need me to send you the files or can you copy/download the entire website as is?

Despite some issues regarding our opinion differences that have caused some misunderstandings in the past, wish to thank you for having been that helpful via your FAQ branch.

G'luck with your real life.

Thank you, Avon. The FAQ has had it's benefits through the years. Shame that some of our celebs disappear for such a long time, but then again

we do have a real life to take care of as you say.

Many thanks!

Holly!!

Back in 2002, the first user missions..., how to use the Dragunov... setting up mod folders to keep my vanilla OFP clean.

You'll be missed miss Avon.  

I wonder if the community could preserve other marks of OFP history: OFP INFO and OFPEC at least (altough OFPEC should continue with AA right?).

It's great to browse through OFP Info and see the evolution of the addons, from the first retexturings , through the first 3Ds and the latest, full scripted masterpieces.

Am I too much of a game geek to consider some games (and their mods) art pieces (kind of like industrial art) to be preserved?

I'd do it for OFP Info but I'm a 56ks, I download from a Cyber cafe with about 50k/s and I'd need DVD writer here.

Thanks a lot for everything Miss Avon.

You were like the OFP mom to me... every big man needs a sweet mommy ya noe?

Hope to see you around again.

- loves... from the OFP community.

Hello!

The classic ofp days are long gone. Honestly, thanks for all the tips & help, and also nice spammy sessions in the past.
