I learned my first mapping knowledge from that site and still use it from time to time.
[QUOTE=Terrenteller;25600996]Negotiations with the server host have resulted in possible future access to a complete, tarball archived copy. Won't know for at least an hour if this endeavor was successful.[/QUOTE] What is the owners name? Or email? I'd like to contact him as well (So he knows lots of people are interested in getting this archive..)

His name is Frodo, and judging by his email address, might be his real name. Considering the address was salvaged with green member permissions, posting it might constitute distribution of personal information, a permabannable offense. Also, I've not yet received a response from Frodo; construction of the archive was completed by a customer support employee of the actual host company.
how troublesome.
Hope to see it back online soon!
Man I love Halfwit-2. Those were the first tutorials I used when I started mapping. Great site with great tutorials
I think you'd be better off contacting the host as opposed to the site owner. Who knows, maybe something bad happened to the site owner and he didn't pay the bill so the account got suspended. Someone should pay the host to put the site up for a week and then copy the all the tutorials! GENIUS!
Any news on this
Waiting on a response from the host about missing files.
I tried to use Halfwit, but for some reason the images never loaded for me.

If someone manages to get the site achieves. I will host its contents on my dedi box.

The site is back up : ) My first ever map came from the tutorials on that site
Someone back this shit up just in case.
Phew
Ah, that's good. :buddy:
I have found most of this thread flattering, thanks to all the appreciators :)) - Duck told me there was post here. The site was suspended because someone (who should get a life) planted three files that generated emails - of the spamming kind. So the site exceeded it's quota. It took a while to get back up as the host did not get any of my replies to their suspension.(Go figure) All is solved now - please rest assured that I have a full copy of the whole site - so it won't die until I do. I doubt I will add anything now as I have become a potter (of the ceramic kind) but I will maintain the site and respond to stuff appearing on the forum. frodo (Not my real name, nor am I a hobbit - Frodo Greenman was the original name I used as an anagram.... of what ? No prizes - just a warm glow if you guess it correctly.)
