Is this the end of the World of Greyhawk?
I think it is. WotC has seemed singularly hostile to the campaign. There's Living Greyhawk, but the limitations of a Living Campaign are pretty profound when you want to export such material to your home game.
What now? :(

Hmmm... Greyhawk has been declared dead so many times, and the rabid fan base always succeeded in getting it back (now, does this make GH undead?).
So, I guess that we have not seen the last of GH.
LG is alive and well, however.

Greyhawk will continue to be around for years to come. This summer when Expedition to Castle Greyhawk hits store shelves, you'll see a bit more GH activity again. But for now, you can always get new Greyhawk material from the OerthJournal, a fan created e-zine. You can also catch up on new Greyhawk topics, articles, and other goodies at Canonfire!.

Damnit Greer, you beat me to it.
I was planning on posting somewhere here to plug those two Greyhawk outlets. The Canonfire crew was as upset about the loss of the magazines knowing that it was best outlet for GH in years. Greyhawk fans have been through feelings like this time and again and the World of Greyhawk has been kept alive through the diligent work of its fans and authors. Duicarthan (OJ) and GLH_PSmedger (CF!) were talking about stepping up the effort to keep GH going strong throughout this period. Fans of Greyhawk, expect great stuff (though technically unofficial) to be coming out of those two bastions of all things 'Hawk.

Good points.
On a more negative note, when I hit the OerthJournal link, I got a virus scan alert that a script called "JS/Exploit-BO.gen" was blocked by my PC. I don't know how harmful the script might have been.
I had no trouble with accessing OJ, just for the record.

I will be sad to see Erik Mona no longer a part of the Greyhawk world. The products released by Dungeon and Dragon magazines were spectacular. I can only hope that WOTC realizes what it is they're doing and not trying to force everyone into their one vision.

Torag, I wouldn't count Erik out of Greyhawk altogether. He occasionally stops by Greychat (follow the link from the home page) in the guise of the infamous Iquander. Though his outlet for any GH stuff he may want to spread the joy with will be limited after Dungeon #150, I'd not be surprised to see something with his name on it appear on Canonfire! or perhaps even in the Oerth Journal at some point.
Grrr . . .
I got the same warning awhile back. I mentioned it to Rick (the EiC and site maintainer), but he checked it and found nothing.
I'll tell him someone else got the same message.
I too just got that same warning... not 5 minutes ago. My IT guy here at work was alerted too and contacted me about it. He said to be wary and contact the site manager about the fact his site could be a host to a Trojan.

I've forwarded a warning to the web admin. From what I am seeing so far its a bad cookie. Try deleting the cookies on your browser and give it another shot. If theres still a problem, email me oerthjournal (at) gmail (dot) com with a screenshot of the offending problem and I'll forward it on to the web admin.
Thanks =)

Now that would be . . . amusing.

Hmm... I somehow doubt it. Face it, he has a full-time job writing RPG stuff to earn his money, and whether he has time to spare to write up some free stuff, seems unlikely to me. But then, I wouldn´t mind being proven wrong here :-)

Seeing as we've not seen hide nor hair....I hate to say that I doubt it. Then again, I'm not really "in the loop".
