An masterful display of lack of money management skills I'd say! (And I can say that, because I too at one point or another lacked these skills)

this is damning and makes sense if your going to be the #2 coin you need some foundation/FUND/office(rs) run out of money that goes away quick
coins like LTC and Doge can go headless more or less, there is not much more coding required. but ETH is a project in development, something completely different, and massively complex.

Sounds pretty stupid, but hopefully it doesn't tear the ETH community up. Someone could always open a private forum like bitcointalk, or just use reddit--which is already being done. Too bad about the dumbass money management.

It's part of the Vitalik plan to change his image and become a white rapper.

Oh wow. I guess they arn't going to take over the #1 crypto spot any time soon.
I don't understand why they didn't just ask the forum users to donate a few coins to keep the forums going.

also you should add another step, maybe between #1 and #2 step 1.5: hire shills, pay idiots also set up a lot of bots and tell all of them to start spamming all over each social media that is remotely related to crypto currencies.

The spamming definitely worked because the price rose after pretty much everyone who had ever posted on the bitcoin subreddit was spammed with a private message promoting Ether. You have to give them credit for understanding the psychology of marketing.

That's a good point, I'm not sure either. This isn't exactly the death knell for ETH but it sucks for them. If bitcointalk shut down there'd have to be a really good replacement and as I said before, the community would be somewhat fragmented.

Multiple forum members offered to cover the cost completely and the devs weren't interested in letting them continue the forums.

Ethereum.org's loss is bitcointalk's gain. I guess all the activity can just migrate to the altcoin forum.

Was there a lot of activity in the first place? I've had the impression that it's a place that attracts relatively few interested parties.
