Valid question, I thought about 6-8 months worth of donations went in?

We should really move to www.reddit.com and start a protected subreddit there :P

Fixed but still shutting down on 23rd. I'm talking to him about getting a copy of everything (site,data,forum) so nothing gets lost. Lordy may have an option for hosting, otherwise we can look at other options but nothing being deleted is my first aim

first some good news and this may answer your question about hosting fees, from niko :

The forums have already been moved to the new server I will host them for now.


So I'm presuming that is where the $ are going, though I haven't asked directly.

Now the not so good, while I can get a copy of the site to maybe resurrect it somehow, he has "cleared out the historical data" :(

Impressive. I am not close to that but I made two donations of at least $10 each. Doesn't matter, often it is not the money but the time and effort. JudgeNik has moved on and things must change. What would be great would be if he could give or sell the entire site to someone else maybe like Lordy who is a computer programmer and could keep it going. Trikster was there from the start so I don't know if he also knows how to run it.

Niko will give a copy of the site, that isn't the problem, but he has said there is a bit of server specific stuff that needs setting up so you can't just put it to a new site and away it goes. Once we see the code we can work it out.

And I wasn't "there from the start" as much as I would like to take credit, 99.999999% niko I just helped him with a few things here and there.

i guess niko is moving it to a new hosting company then?

or did you say he was going to scrap the whole thing altogether...
