Terrible news which makes me very sad. I, too, never met him. Had email and PM conversations with him and he seemed like a real nice, genuine guy who, like us, loved what he did and was passionate about what we all share here.
This is where everything in this industry started for me, as I'm sure it was the same for most here. This is THE go-to forum and message board for me and so many others. Nothing else is even comparable. This site and all the time put in is the benchmark of foot fetish. It has stood the test of time. I understand membership has been down, but we all go here everyday, whether you are a producer or a fan, we are all here together. It's weathered social media and continues to shine with all of us.
If it weren't for Wus forum, I would never have met Jason from FWP in NYC and if that meeting between him and I never happened, my life may have been different or it would have been a much different path to get there, as far as foot worship parties go. The parties have become very successful here in Philly, and places like Jason's FWP in NYC is where it all started and Foot Night in LA, Vegas and other cities, Candi Kiss in Fla, and more....I owe all this to Wus ( Alex ). I wish I got to know him personally. I did know he was very private about his personal life, and we all respected that.
What was really cool about Alex is that, he really seemed to like my foot fetish / foot worship pics and material and he ALWAYS got my contribution pics up right away. That not only brought traffic to my sites, but it gave them instant name recognition. He understood both, the business end that producers go through and to keep the sites we all enjoy profitable but he also most importantly, understood us all just as fans of foot fetish, the amateur posts by wives and girlfriends or guys who just wanted to post anonymous foot pics. This combo of everything made this website what it is.
Let's somehow pull together and keep this going. I do feel like we should start a Wus Twitter and Facebook page. I will volunteer my time to help out in any way shape or form. It's the people like us who need to keep this wonderful site going and to do this to keep the memory of Alex ( Wu ) alive and well.
I'd like to volunteer in any capacity as well for the site.
It seems bhe is keen to keep the site...but however it changes...we should carve out a permanent spot to remember and thank the man who got this started and kept it running through the years...as you cant keep something going and growing for 15 years unless you really got something there the people enjoy!

Sad. When I first got online back in the late 90s I came across Wu's as one of the first 5 results and remember thinking how awesome it was to have all of the feet links on one page as well as everything else. May his legacy to this fetish live on.

It's terribly sad. I neither had the privilege of knowing Wu/Alex in person, nor I had direct email exchanges with him. But I am honored that he deemed two models of my BAREFOOT NUDITY site (Chat Noir and Deep Green) worth the "contributions" section of his site. I discovered Wu's Feet Links back in 1997.. in those days, foot fetishism was deffo NOT mainstream. Wu's site has always been a safe harbor for everybody into female feet.. the Eldorado of Barefoot Beauty. Rest in peace, Alex.. you will surely be missed forever.. and your legacy will never die. WU IS DEAD.. LONG LIVE WU!
This site too was the first I ever found when I first did a search in my first computer back in 2000. I used to post more in here but I too have been more of a lurker in recent years. I never really sensed any drop off in usage in recent years. Always seemed just as lively now as it had then. I will make more of an effort now so as to maintain the site and the spirit of the man Wu.

Aw man, this is crazy... I knew it hadn't been updated in a while, but never imagined this though. I've learned so much from the site over the years RIP

Wow. Don't know what to say. Been coming here for what seems like a decade, talked to him on many occasions...inspired me and the ex GF and new wifey to post pictures here. Want to know what happened but at least there is some closure, he'd probably want the site to live on new and improved. Whoever takes the reigns should always allude to the man who started it, definitely was a huge part in figuring out myself and one of the things that makes me unique. I thank him for that.
So damn sad. RIP.
