Why is the site's Archive down?

StevXtreme · 07-28-2004, 07:17 AM

Why? And what does it contains?

Will we ever solve this puzzle?

That's our secret warez0r vault.

Actually, it's just a link that comes with vBulletin. I'm not sure what it does. I guess it can store really old threads there as non-dynamic pages to take some load off the servers? Just a guess.

Doug?

Why isn't it transformed into an adventure games archive? It would ease gamer's life!

Where is this link?

There are plenty of other sites which offer adventure games (as well as other games), both abandoneware and not-really-abandoneware-but-close, so there's really no need for Adventure Gamers to start sharing games.
Plus the games require space and that costs money.

Bottom right corner of the page after you scroll all the way down.

Not to mention that in many cases, it's illegal.

I meant freeware games like Pleurburgh: Dark Ages or 5 Days, 6 Days, 7 Days etc.

If you haven't seen it before, here is a very good link for games like that.

Thank you, Emily! I really appreciate it! 8-)

Oh, that. it's designed as a set of apparently static pages for search engines to crawl. I thought I disabled it because there wasn't much point.

i remember back when the website was adventuregamer.com it had demos and such. i remember playing the demo of ace ventura

Fixed it, if you're curious. It's just a scaled down forum thing for the search engines to crawl, though.
