The Hearts Fund Drive is over for another year [View all]

This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (a host of the Announcements group).

Thank you so much to everyone who took part!

Grovelbot will be back for the Summer Fund Drive in August

FYI: As many of you may be aware, we were planning to start a 30-day name change amnesty period today, but there has been a slight delay on that. We are still hoping to begin it today if we can, but we'll keep you updated. I will post an announcement when the name change amnesty begins.
