I think we've all heard the sad news that the abba4ever chat forum will be closing down permanently in early October after 8 years of service to the ABBA fan community.
There are a few Facebook pages and groups that are dedicated to ABBA, but Facebook isn't quite the same as a forum, as many would agree.
Many in the fan community enjoy a Forum environment - I personally feel that a Forum is much more organised and informative than a Facebook group - and I believe the community needs a Forum.
I had considered starting a forum a few years ago - but realised that only one worldwide forum was really needed - and we already had abba4ever.
But now, with the closure of abba4ever, I have decided to go ahead and create a new forum.
My new ABBA forum is called ABBAChat :)
It can be found here:
www.abbachat.com
It is in the very early stages of development - but it is fully functional and ready for members.
If you are a member of abb4ever please feel free to copy your old posts from there and add to ABBAChat - but please also include the original date of your post on abba4ever so it's easier to work out timelines for events etc.
So come on over and check it out - if you like what you see, sign up, start posting, make suggestions and help it to grow !
And last, but not least, share the news ! :)

ReplyDeleteHi, Roxanne. I just found your forum by Googling "ABBA Forums" after finding out that the abba4ever forum has been shut down. I registered with abbachat and rceived a confirmation email, but couldn't log in. Why can't I log in?

I am sorry you guys have been having an issue and I am not sure why.
ReplyDeleteI have changed the registration setting so if you are still unable to log in or post, please try registering one more time. Hopefully this will solve any issue.
I was able to log i without registering again. In fact, I have posted. It's nice to be a member of an ABBA forum again.
