What's up with Dan and Vilesilencer?

    Haven't visited his forum in a few weeks. Today it seems to be gone and the homepage states that "Vilesilencer has a new purpose" where new purpose seems to link to a blog but it doesn't load.

    Anyone know what he's up to or has he been hacked?

    I haven't seen any updates in a long time. I had the impression he was keeping the site up but not devoting at much time to it. As of yesterday the site was up as I visited the forum and looked around. But nothing today. Interesting.

    I just tried and got a message that the site is migrating to a new server.

    That makes more sense... Perhaps something went wrong at the previous host.
    Hopefully they come back! Its a great resource!

    Hey guys.

    Yeah massive server migration glitch. Blew the site to smithereens.

    Sadly I wasn't able to fix it before they moved the site, as they decommissioned the old box (the hosts data center just switched the entire lot off), so I was stuck.

    My coder is working on it. Will keep updated on progress. Feel free to PM me if you have anything urgent to discuss. Expect bigger and better things from here on in, not leaving the biz and the site is updated very very regularly, we just don't add junk directories so you won't see millions of them :)

    I'm reminded right now of what happens when flashy boats meet big icecubes. It's not hilarity that ensues exactly, but if you don't laugh you'll definitely cry ;)
