Forum abandoned/ can I revive it?

The forum in question


So a forum i’m was on has been abandoned years ago. Is there anyway to transfer ownership to me? The last post from the admin was from 2013.

Official Support relating to the potential of a switch on forum ownership, most likely would have to wait for ProBoards Staff to be in office, on Monday, after 8 or 9 AM, U.S. Pacific Time. Though a couple staff are generally available on a per emergency basis over the weekend, and might comment if they decide they need to give normal support.

In the meantime, generally speaking; forums have the potential to have the owner account changed to someone else, pending if it has been a sufficiently long enough time where the admin account hadn't been logged into, that a new owner would be needed to take over the direction of the forum. That, or if proof of death is provided to Support Staff (obituary providing info to show the owner of the forum, had died).

So outside of death, the last log in date of the admin account would give a hint on the potential of taking over.

Ok thank you for letting me know.

As I have no way to contact the owner of the forum and it’s been around 10 + years since any activity from the admin how likely is it to transfer the forum to me?
