Yeah, 'appropriate'... Sorry for not giving a 'like' for that one.

I just deleted my bookmark to BSN Prime Very appropriate, SofaJockey. Same for me, around the same time. I actually had quite a few to delete: the BSN Homepage, Dalakaar's Response Form (long since saved), "The Little Things..." thread, and a number of save editor resources, to name the highlights. With three months to get past my disappointment, and most significantly this new home, the sting is gone. I just deleted the dead links with a rueful smile and shake of the head, and tabbed back over to this site.

Just got to go through the site and delete the dead links to BSN Prime, which I understand harms our SEO

It sounds nonsensical until you take the time to study it a bit. You have a better idea than anyone, I'd imagine, about how many links we were truly dropping in those final weeks. I'm excited to see how we do now that the old site is truly in the past. Big things rapidly approach.

It really is sad.. and I wasn't even that active over at the official forums (just around 275 posts) but still.. I spent a lot of time lurking and wasting time while at work and so on.
As I said in the introduction thread, I just found out about it the other day (had been out of touch with the ME/BioWare scene) and I'm still really confounded and sad about their decision.
I do hope a lot of the old users find their way here! And that this place stays afloat for years to come!

When I tried to access the site with HTTrack, it gave me a 503 service unavailable error when attempting to download some old threads. This means that access has been restricted to Bioware. No one from the outside can view the forum, but nothing has been deleted (404 error)

I wonder what, if anything, they saved from the old boards. I don't know about BioWare, but the fans took it upon themselves to try to save as much as possible. This is the other major BSN outshoot. fextralife.com/forums/index.php?sid=c1cb7966ad55ba210bfc910df4df4fa4

Yeah, I saw that as well, pretty impressive to be honest and a valuable resource to have! These boards feel more active however.

I did that about a week after the forum closure. I tried accessing it today, and I received this message. 19:21:31 Info: engine: transfer-status: link error (404, 'Not Found'): forum.bioware.com/topic/277034-my-opinion/

It's surprising the BioWare forums on Fextralife are so quiet considering the excitement to save posts and link accounts. Maybe many of those are avoiding spoilers and speculation and after release activity will increase.
It's great how things are going here, active and stable. The moderation and community under ProBoards seems to be working well together. A lot of appreciation for what this is BSN.

There is a time for everything to begin and end, and for every ending there is a new beginning.
So RIP BSN Prime.
Long live the various new BSNs to take its place.

All things considered, the community survived the closure of BSN Prime reasonably well. Those who did not want to go to Twitter and Reddit did not have to. We held the line
