It has been several years since the heyday of Hyperlobby and Jiri announced recently that he will be closing the Hyberlobby forums. The game server has already been disabled.

Hello all,

this website and all associated services will be shutdown within one or two months. Thanks to everyone you helped me building this site for last 26 years …

The last time Jiri updated the Hyperlobby program was four years ago, v4.3.7, and I never got the impression that the update was enough to get Players back into using it.

For those that still remember their login credentials and want to pass on their thanks or memories to Jiri using Hyperlobby before the final shut down of the site Phantom17 has started a thread at Hyperlobby that fits the bill.

Hyperlobby is where I began multiplayer flightsimming. And where I met my first friends in this hobby. I think I may have discovered it before I found SimHQ. But it was all so long ago that the history is now a blur. But I do know this. We’ll likely never have a place like that again, where players can chat and immediately jump into groups playing various sims. IL2 one session and Falcon Allied Force the next. Then chat with everyone until whatever next session strikes your fancy. I am grateful to have found this hobby when HL was still thriving. Age speaking perhaps but those were much better times. The sims were rudimentary but the community was far less fractured. HL was the glue which kept much of us together…for a time.
