Good evening Crysandrea. The OP as follows has been completely revamped by Ale for clarity's sake.
Original statement:

Good evening, Crysandrea.
Thea and I have arrived at what was a tough decision to make. As of March 15th, Crysandrea will go through a lengthy downtime of what is estimated to be 3+ months. For the duration of this downtime, Crysandrea will overgo a complete revamp and will be relaunched as Crysandrea (v3), in the summer.
Crysandrea cannot keep running at it's current state. Our monthly struggles have been piling up, and it's become increasingly difficult for old bugs to be fixed, new ideas to breath, and more importantly, near impossible for us to grow. Our recent conflicts have served as external validation that a fist-full of things are fundamentally broken. Unfortanetly, Crysandrea has not attracted a large enough audience for us to continue funding it's costs and operations
Crysandrea will go down as of the 15th and begin a 3 month redevelopement period. During this redevelopement the site will be rebuilt from scratch to return in the Summer with a new look and new feel. Hopefully the changes we make through the course of this down time will result in a more efficient and enjoyable Crysandrea experience.
You can expect a new design, theme, feature-set, story, and concept. We'll start beta invitation early summer, and begin rolling out publicly mid-summer.
Our userbase will be wiped and inventories will be cleared(*) however we're doing what we can to provide perks and benefits to make this transistion as painless as possible.
Those of you who have contributed out of pocket cash via our donations will receive a proprotional amount of Gems in your account upon your return to Crysandrea v3.
In addition all v2 users will be on the recieving end of compensation for the loss of your inventories.
*While the details have yet to be sussed out there's a chance you may in fact be able to keep your items; however while we brainstorm to figure out what is most practical an inventory wipe is a statement we can commit to.
What will be the same?
Pixels! We're keeping our bases, commons, and ALL of our past TYIs will be available.
Why bother?
We love the site and we feel that there's a lot to gain from a relaunch. You can only patch something up so many times before it becomes more reasonable to sew something new all together. The metaphorical quilt of Crysandrea v2 more or less got the job done but it wasn't keeping us warm in the winter.
How do I stay informed about Crysandrea v3?
By joing this...mailing list!
Via your email we will keep you informed on the going ons of Crysandrea v3 and it's return. Beta members will be selected from this mailing list!

Update!
v2 TYIs will be available for purchase with either Gems OR Palladium in a "luxury shop" in v3!
This includes the Japan set!

THAT'S why. they think its okay we lose everythign but have to RE EARN EVERYTHIGN AND ITS SUPPOSED TO BE OKAY AS LONG AS WE GET A LITTLE BIT BACK. i worked my BACK SIDE OFF to get the item si got on there. it makes me glad at least that Mene is out there. 'is feeling very very vindictive and wnats to go slap up a 'come join mene' on their stupid site. but its agianst the rules.
i mean yes okay i can on one level understand, but if your going to CLOSE the site, RIP IT TO SHREDS, and start over, yoru basically SPENDING MORE MONEY. so it makes NO FRIGGEN SENSE.
Wooooooow. Very little of that made any sense at all, like you said. I'm so sorry about losing all your hard work. I'd be super angry too. I'm glad I didn't go any farther than Mene. I was tempted to try Crysandria, because I'd heard of it so much around here, but wow. No.
I'm sorry I didn't respond sooner. I had to go get some stuff done that I forgot about, and came back super late. :(

oh its perfectly okay. we all have lives and they occasionally interfere with mene time.
minus an infection in my gumline, yep. i found this awesome spred that has very little sodium, which is great, and taste GREAT and needs only one peice of bread to fill you up. its just awesome.
Becca (my daughter - to try to avoid confusion) is very good at driving me crazy with her crazy hyperness. But she's doing great! She's the reason actually it's taken me awhile to get back to you here.
And the boys are settling into life with Benji, they didn't believe me when I told them that he'd have them up at random times at night, but they are both totally in love with him.
