They say it is "no longer used for the purpose it was built for".

I was a member years ago, it was a great way to get in touch with school friends prior to Facebook

Chill started before Friends Reunited and I can see what they mean about no longer the same.
Chill used to have carers posting a message every 15 minutes.
There was a great community that really cared for one another.
This was because there was no facebook or other social media websites.
It is difficult to know what to post now, because sometimes no one even replies even thought the posts do get viewed.
If everyone wants support and is not prepared to support other members by posting topics of interest then sadly Chill will go the same as Friends Reunited.
