Tefle Huden Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well I logged on to ORE (oblivionsrealestate) and site was gone. What a shame, so much invested into that site and now it's gone. Forums are there, but Forums are here and so is a site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark0ne Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I'm pretty sure APY over at PES would be perfectly happy to host the site, as PES and MWSummit were always happy to in the past. As others have said, the site could also simply provide mirrored links to download locations on TESNexus, PES, ElricM, etc.. I didn't really visit the site, but AFAIK the lure of the site wasn't the downloads themselves, but the information and forums provided. Am I correct?

TheTerminator2004 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Oh, sorry, I forgot that bit was members-only... basically, its summed up pretty well on the main page of the site though - bandwidth leechers attacked the site (some people, including me, think it was because of Leafydale - someone was caught trying to hack into it recently, though I'm not sure of the details), and used up pretty much all the bandwidth Shezrie had payed for, meaning she cannot afford to run the site, at least not for a while. Personally, I dont see why she cant just leave it down until she has made enough money from Leafydale to be able to afford hosting again, and in the meantime implement a free membership system for the site, to prevent this happening again, but I'm sure she has her reasons.
