DaveNovember 21, 2017I dunno what the deal is. been the same story here. tried emailing firewhat, to no avail, as the first several wouldn't even send. hopefully it gets resolved.
TFDFFNovember 24, 2017Hearing rumors that the parent company for this site has filed for bankruptcy and that this site is down indefinitely. I am trying to find out more but even as a Hotlist Mod, I haven't been told anything. Everything I have heard have been from previous "employees" on other social media sites.
Gizmo719November 26, 2017I really hope we dont lose this resource for good
TonyNovember 26, 2017I'm getting bits and pieces however it "sounds" as if the site is down for good unless someone else picks it up. Not sure that is possible at this point. It's a shame to lose such a valuable resource. Wish Original Ab would have kept it somehow. Wish they would put an informative type disclaimer at least on the domain letting everyone know what is going on and if the site will be back up again possibly in the future, but the things I'm hearing it doesn't sound good.

"Hello All,
I was the founder of FireWhat, and through a series of bummer events, the Board of the Company decided to close the doors. It was a sad day for us. Believe me. And a sad day for the time and efforts we put into the company. I had stepped away a few months before the Board decided to close down the company, and when I stepped down, I honestly didn't think we would be closing the doors a few months later. We didn't "Bail". The staff of the company put their heart and souls into working to make a safer fire community. Wildlandfire.com was one project as part of several others. We were working on live firefighter tracking. Working with Congress to support additional funding, and spent many countless hours on the front line helping with wildfire mapping and integrated technologies.
But, we ultimately were at the discretion of the Board who decided to close the doors. We were growing faster the revenues could keep up, and to look back on the 7 years building the company, I am pretty proud of what the team did accomplish. I get not everyone is going to be happy. Believe me, when we learned the company would close, we weren't happy to see al the work we had created go away. But, maybe someone new will come along and move the efforts forward!""
