I notice Pcenginefx.com is now offline
« on: February 23, 2021, 12:07:03 PM »
I haven't posted here since the forum moved, but I figured I'd make one now since today, for some reason, i decided to check-out pcenginefx.com, to just load the site, it had been a while..... and it's gone! Looks like it totally went away at the end of last year. Anyone archive the site itself,? Nullity told me a few years ago when i visited the site, and found the forums locked, what happened there, and about this forum and Superpcenginefx forums, though this was the archive of the old forums from pcenginefx.com.

It's nice to see the forums archived. i spent a lot of time on the Pcenginefx.com forums and site years back. TZD.com gone, PCEnginefx.com gone... Looking around, i see a number of other sites are still around though, some not updated in years, a few 10+ years.

Pcenginefx.com's forums was where all the content and activity really was. the site itself saw sporadic updates here and there. It's something else to see the site completely gone, though!

Yeah, I heard about this being the, "archived-but-active" site from Nullity a while back. When i found the PCEFX forums locked down, i guess 2018 or so, i asked him what was up, since I still had his e-mail and his site was around, then he filled me in that someone went wild, deleted stuff, Aaron shut it down. i took a break from the site back in 2015/2016, so I wasn't around for that mess.

Checking on some things today, i went to the old site, just to visit, not looking for the forums, it was more to visit, and see if anything was new there, and, yeah, something was new, it's gone, hahaha.  It's a small event, seeing a site I used to spend a lot of time at years back, "Wow, it's gone now". hahaha    PCEnginefx.com even hung in there for a while after locking down the forums.

I don't know if anyone saved the non-forum part of the site.  Maybe wayback machine?

On a semi-related note, I miss PCECP.  It was super handy for searching and sorting by developer, number of players, etc.

Looks like it's still here, it's just way down at the bottom of links when I searched.

Makes sure you don't misspell either, or else you get a lot of links about the drug!

It's not technocally dead, it just doesn't really work any more. Unless it's finally been fixed.

I guess you're right, I was able to get it to work if I used Google to search it and then put in the name, but then after getting to the right page the tabs still don't work.
