Oh my, I've just seen the news. I haven't been really active in the hobby for years due to personal reasons, but I have always taken DoA for such an integral part of the hobby that I simply assumed it would be here forever. It's such a sad blow that I don't know what else to say...
I joined November 25th 2012. It’s been 13 years. I will miss Den of Angels. My first doll community. This was the go-to for ball jointed doll information, pictures, wiki links and finding out just about anything you could ever want to know. The community, tutorials, swaps, marketplace etc. I hope to see y’all in other places in the future. Keep your spirit, heart and love for our dolls, and each other!
Absolutely gutted to hear that DOA will be closing... This is a wonderful database, full of invaluable information and a great community. I spent my early teens scrolling through the site, learning all about hybrid bjds, finding new companies and meeting new people. Now 20 years later, it's still an integral part of the BJD collecting world. End of an era, I will miss this place
While moving to discord for community is all well and good, it really can't compare to DoA for the sheer level of information. Shattered to hear we're losing this.
I joined doa when i was 14… Im 26 now. I am so sad to hear that doa will be closing. I was able to find my dream doll here and learn so much about bjds specifically super dollfies. Checking doa has been part of my daily routine for so long. Everyone i talked to here was so kind in helping me learn a lot about super dollfies. Will miss doa so much
