There has not been a single post to that board since last September and not many before that. I'm not sure if it's even considered active. I have heard a rumour - and it's only that - that the board admin. may be seriously ill. If so, it may be impossible to reach him. 

The one thing you CAN do is go to the board, hit the Inbox tab and search for quadcities. You can then try and leave him a message. There's no guarantee he'll reply, but it might be your only chance to get through to him. 

I went looking and it says he hasn't been on in almost 2 years. I was hoping to reach him about maybe taking the board over so it doesn't get deleted and it can stick around and maybe get revitalized

When Jenn Campbell died, 11 months ago, a no. of SOWNY regulars who knew her tried to register on Quad Cities to share condolences and memories    

A message popped up that "your registration is pending".     Am told that continues to be the situation almost a year later  

I mention this is because there doesn't seem to be much "goodwill" in the Quad Cities entity ("goodwill" in the commercial sense)        

Good luck with this

Like I said I looked up the admin and he has not signed on in almost 2 years, so either he has given up, or he was/is really sick, or he has passed away. I am hoping its just that he gave up but it is hard to say
