Yes but was the old link the same as the link I posted above? Remember, we copied the Hangar onto a new version of the forum software, even though the old one was still around. Check the last bit of the link, if it's phpbb3 then it's the "new" hangar.

Not that it matters, since I couldn't post on that either I suppose.

Likewise, check the URL...if it has "phpbb2" in it, change the 2 to a 3 and it might work again.

Well, I mean, for a given value of deleted...a lot of it probably still exists, either in cached versions of the pages, or through things like The Wayback Machine which tries to archive as much of the web as possible. Over time a lot of it will disappear more permanently, but probably not all of it completely. :D

I have a link to Ahira's Hanger, and also this link:

http://kevinswatch.10.forumer.com/

I have this link under "Backup Forum". I think Kevinswatch created it one time when we were plagued by outages.

LOL, I'm impressed that I updated that thread to point out that the discord is the new backup. :D

A case of, "Will the last person out out please hit the lights."

No - like Vincent Malloy I intend to continue wandering the dark and empty corridors "alone and tormented" long after you guys are all gone anyway.

Pretty much what I do a lot of the time anyway!

Not sure. I have been going from thread to threat recently. Sometimes it feels like Charlton Heston in The Omega man in an almost empty NY City.

We just added two more. The forum may be here to help support another generation or two, maybe? Or as an add-on to Discord's replacement?
I'm imagining 30-40 years from now someone will have the ability to convert the whole series to films with real quality and integrity. But will do a 90% job, kinda like TLOR. ;)
