As several familiar noms-de-plume have already remarked, 68kMLA, since some 19hr ago. Que?

Since Cine's site is still up, we over on IRC figure the forum got deleted. Hope for a backup!

Cinemafia.net sure seems to be offline from my end. I get the vDeck parked page just like I get for 68kmla.net.

Are you sure your cache isn't being displayed?

Peace,
Drew

It was working earlier.

I really hope that the 68kMLA comes back up... That's such a treasure trove of information.

Unfortunately, I don't have anyones email address from 68KMLA except Dana's so there is no one I can contact about the site.

I've emailed Dana to see if she knows anything.

I emailed tomlevens 2 days ago but he did not respond yet.
I hope that the 68kmla will come back...

If it doesn't, we can probably recreate the site from saved bits and pieces as well as perhaps The Wayback Machine.

Update: I traced down a gmail address for Cinemafia and dropped him a line. Maybe I'll get a response.

I think that the sense of community was one of the greatest losses of the 68kMLA.

I don't think it would really work out - I've never really used IRC before (I just about know how to connect but don't know how to do anything else really, and don't know all the etiquette/conventions of it) and I'm too shy anyway, I don't suppose I'd ever be able to say anything!



See ya all around though hopefully!

Well I don't suppose I'll be missed much! You can say all you like about Windows and I won't be there to stand up for it... As I said, I expect it'll only be a few days anyway

/me also sheds a tear for the mla! it appears as if irc is down too...

After a little searching I finally found you guys. Anyone have any idea what happened to 68k or if it will come back. If not then I guess I busted down to private.

Welcome!

iMac600 seems to have been talking with Tom Levens a bit, and the current rumor is that the 68kMLA's server's hard drive died. Supposedly, Tom et al. are working on restoring the forum.

I wish them luck! I haven't tried contacting Tom, Cine, or any of the other gods of the 68kMLA, but I'm certainly willing to help if they need it. I figure the admins will ask for help if they need it, and rather than spam them with a deluge of email asking about the forum, we can use the PPCMLA until they get back on their feet (and, I hope, continue using the PPCMLA for PowerPC Mac discussion thereafter).

This thread over on the 'Fritter has some good info about the 68kMLA's situation.

Peace,
Drew

you know, I had a dream last night that 68kmla was back up, but we lost everything, and just built a new forum. But nobody seened to care, we were just so happy.

grr, that sad mac is staring me in the face. I cant seem to find the reset switch...

-digital

Well the sad mac is an improvement over that vDeck error page from a couple of days ago.

While I will miss the 68kMLA and hope for it's eventual return, I am glad I have found this forum. I like the look and feel. It's great and I will continue my membership / activity even (when) the 68kMLA returns.

I'm still waiting for Gambas' site to go offline. He's been dead for how long now? I hope someone saved all his pages offline because they are irreplaceable.
