Bad news:



:(
I'm really sad for Red. Hope that the chemotherapy works out. People from the whole demoscene, they provide support and hope for the best, m0d. You didn't deserve this (the overall awfulness of this community, the sickness and everything else) at all. Best wishes.

if it really is dying, then, has anyone thought of preserving all modules (and comments and maybe even user profiles) so that someone can make a new modarchive (with the old data preserved) if the current one dies?
or is that too big of a task?

That could be possible. We could also retrieve the source code from the admins, perhaps? I don't know, but the hosting fees will eventually expire if there's nobody to pay them..
The modules can definitely be preserved. There are about 200k modules on the archive and you can download 20000 modules per day. I could probably DL it all in a few days, considering that I could also use the torrent tracker to download the earlier additions at once. About the user accounts, I have no idea. We could use the API.

Edit: I don't know how will we make functional user accounts though. We cannot obtain passwords and emails.

Sad to see it all go like this.

Hello TMA staff,

Can you please reject tashmajdan_narcotix_-_africa.s3m? Looks like it's not the original, but a modified version. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Viraxor

Finally...

Just asking, could we expect modules being screened on Monday/Tuesday? With this new situation, I don't know if it is possible.
