Sadly its not the banter of the forums that are a valued loss, it's the documentary of the progressive QuakeC/ C tuts etc (forums also) that are integral to all {game} historians, -- sadly missed  |

The loss of Qsrc is upsetting, and the content it contained is irreplaceable.
People do move on with their lives, but, I think that unless something actually happened to Ender on a personal level, he should make the site source available to someone with the webspace to host it. _________________ http://red.planetarena.org - Alien Arena |

If that's all it is, at least he should fess up. OK, it would be annoying if a basic mistake like that was the cause, but coming clean and admitting it would be preferable to this endless string of vague promises with things getting progressively further back. And would get him more respect in the long run if, as seems likely, the worst turns out to be true. _________________ DirectQ Engine - New release 1.8.666a, 9th August 2010

FYI
I have not seen Ender on IRC for months, last time I saw him "don't worry it's under control"
etc.
he did want me to be an admin for it though _________________

Guys take a look at http://www.quakesrc.org now. Is this some sort of joke? Or maybe some hope at last :\ |

Maybe it's part of the joke, but at bottom of the page there is an hidden text (black text on black background) :

I noticed the black text before and fired up John the Ripper Although, brute force in 3 days = not likely.
Btw, I assume you guys figured that it was rot13  |

The closest I can get to even trying to figure it out, is by using "openssl passwd -1 blah" and looking at the output from that, and that is useless because it seems to generate different output every time  |

What are you trying to figure out?
What the text says?
If so then I've figured that out, and will tell after the 31'st. |
