Wth happen to MxOResource!?

It's not working for me either. I just did a WHOIS search on the website and it says the contract doesn't expire till November 07, 2008. So either the website is down and it's showing that page, the website owner didn't pay the bill or they sold the website.

Well...Shadow mentioned he wasn't renewing it and it would just expire...which really is a shame as it was an awesome site. He never got back to me about transferring the info the RMC to keep it living to some extent..so at this moment I guess...

R.I.P MxO Resource " />" />" />" />" />

On that note though if he still had the info I could still get it onto RMC, but I dont think we will have to worry.

Patiance. hehe

Hm, shame to see such a useful tool disappear like this. I'm still running The MxO Archive if anybody needs things like node and key coordinates, hardline locations, etc. I admit I haven't been keeping it very up-to-date, though (MxO Resource was letting me get away with being lazy, since most people were using it instead anyway " />" />.

I'd also be happy to look into posting any of its tools or resources on my site, though that "clothing database" sounds a bit daunting for an old-fashioned HTML coder like me.

Your site won me 125 million $i in a trivia contest on Vector, mostly thanks to having the exact XYZ coordinates of the gang boss Teacher.

Thank you very much!

Ruh-roh.

I had no idea the expiration already happened or I would have renewed it.  It's really great to hear how many of you appreciated all the work that went into making it, and how much of you still used it even though it was severely out-of-date.

I'll see what I can do.  All the databases are still intact, but I'm not sure if I have the source files...

EDIT: On another note, the domain was bought by someone else.

Phew, good to hear this wasn't deliberate. " />

Still, surely only the domain's expired, not the site itself. Why can't you get at all the source files? Or tell us the IP address and username, if it's in the form ###.###.###.###/~username/ like so many sites are.

Would be cool.  I know it's a hassle to built a site from scratch.  I took a HTML/CSS class on the semester that past.  It isn't as hard as Java but still.  Heh

 (On a side note:  How can I adjust the time of the forums to my time zone?  I looked under "My Profile" and couldn't find an option.)

Ah yes, of course.  Alright, well, the files are accessible.

But, ya know, the site would need updating, and adjustments to the code would have to be made.  Maybe I should just... build a new one.

=D

Any thoughts?

This idea just came to me.

Alot of modern game nowadays have built-in screen video recording and uploading.  If you've ever played Halo 3 or Skate, you know what I'm talking about.  Videos can be uploaded to a site for commenting, ratings, etc.; it's like a YouTube for games.

Would the MxO Community be interested in the website functionality?  Obviously I can't add screen recording to MxO " />, nor provide one, but it would be kinda cool.

It should also be noted that my Flash skills aren't my strong point, but I think I can figure out video player, compression and all that good stuff.  So this feature may or may not be possible, but that's why I'm asking first.

Any thoughts?

Hey Shadow-SK I had a thought for a possible Abilities section. I will PM ya.

I don't know if you've even considered it, and I doubt this will go down too well, but if I were you I wouldn't merge this with anything else. That is, don't combine the new site with another typical community project (forum, radio station, newspaper, etc.), as all too often we've seen such monoliths vanish for various reasons.

As a distinct entity it stands far less chance of going wrong. That's just how I see it anyway. " />

Hrmm a fansite name.... sounds like an open call to me

• Data Scan
• Archive Re-imaged
• MxOResource Rebooted or Reimaged 
• Resource Intercept
• Signal Hack a MxO Resource

some of them are less than inspired but eh just my two cents.

Name suggestions " />

Mobile Avenue

I personally like Mobil Avenue quite a bit.  It is a good analogy to the space between the 'Game' and the 'Real', which is what I assume will be Mobil Avenue's purpose.  An MxO liaison, as it were.

If suggestions for things are allowed, I humbly suggest the following:

-A primer on the Storyline, including actual itemized transcripts of LE characters from the LE posts, preferably indexed by either Character or Chapter.  Those pictures are nice, but it would be nice to have them reduced to Storyline relevant text strings.  I believe that I've seen something similar to this, but not quite done to the level of what you could do, as proven by Resource.

-Player profiles, with pictures perhaps.  Something frequent, something to help get to know the community a bit.

-Podcasts, maybe like every 2-3 months.  I listened to the one you did before, and I thought it was pretty good.  More please!

-A place, something more with a Zion Mainframe hacker interface rather than boring old discussion boards, where players could put up live info. on any events of significance going down.  Something with a Matrix-y feel, that allowed Operatives to communicate with one another as if theye were really in the Matrix.

Just random thoughts, I'm excited to see what this new iteration will be like!!!
