General WebRingo Forum / Crashy crashy

« Last post by Mike on July 03, 2021, 07:49:30 PM »

Yep, we had a drive crash and unfortunately the ISP wasn't doing backups like they should have, so we're going to get the drive and send it to a recovery service to see what can be recovered. That may take a few weeks, we're not sure.

With a little luck and a fair bit of $$$ for the recovery (we hope), we should be back to normal in a couple of weeks.

Thanks for your patience.

General WebRingo Forum / Update, minor change

« Last post by Mike on August 10, 2015, 03:46:11 PM »

A minor change: from now on, sites that have been created but that aren't in a ring will not show up in the "Site Search" here. Or any search, for that matter.

This has been done in order to prevent spammers from creating loads of empty sites and then loading the site descriptions with spammy keywords.

The old wow was located at http://www.webringworld.org/

Gunner lost the domain and some other ring person got it and pretty much stole all of what was at the old wow

Was that webringword.net, or another domain?

You won't have to worry about that here...this domain is paid up through October 02, 2024.

Thanks Mike! I only had three rings at alt, so that won't be too bad. I also had one at WOW, which has also gone, I've just found out. Their site is still up, but it's a generic articles blog now.

Damn, I had no idea it was gone. If I'd known it was being abandoned I'd have tried to get it so it could be kept alive.

If there's anything we can do to help you move rings here, please let us know.

I was just trying to surf an alt-webring ring, and found that the alt-webring site has gone. I did some digging in the wayback archives, and found that the domain expired at the end of last year. The owner didn't renew it and it is now owned by one of those holding companies, who have registered the domain for a year.

So goodbye alt-webring. You were great while you lasted. I suppose I'll now have to switch my alt-webring rings to here. I'm a member of the Garden of Friendship which had several rings hosted there. I've just let them know what's happened.

Welcome, Eunice.

Yeah, we think it's on his end (Midi-Ring) and not anything with the site.

Thanks!
