A day in history: Wc3campaigns.com shuts its doors, bids farewell

Not like we really need them we got the best damn tutorials and projects around right here on TH.

interesting choice of words there....if he wanted to be friendly he would have said "sorry guys we've got their projects and tutorials"....but instead he said "you definitely missed your chance...bit slow on your end"

I don't run WarCraft 3 Mod Forge anymore, I don't need to be as pleasant as I used to be, bluntness gets to the point so much quicker.

Regardless of what anyone has...

We have the highest ranking google's and the revanue .

The rest? .........

Yeah, I notice bit cocky. But remember the banlist thread? I dont tend to close or win with admin powers over stuff like dat. It leans torwards 'opression'. It would make me no better than.... allstars.com assholes.

fair enough

Just because your no longer an authority figure, doesn't mean people stop seeing you as in the same light.. People dont respect you because of power, but the presense power often gives.. ookay this is getting deep lol
nvm
Blunt isn't always the best approach, you can anger the wrong people taking the easy way out?
no?

 

[Shadowy Fear]

Farewell, wc3campaigns. You will always be remembered.

Seriously, I would expect to find that on a tombstone in some graveyard, not a gaming forum ...

Woes to any those who apose the dark Ryoko.

That's oppose oh dark one

If you were thinking of merging with Wc3Campaigns you definitly missed your chance, we at WarCraft 3 Mod Forge have already gotten a few of their projects and tutorials section. Bit slow on your end.

Good on you! You're going to need em. TH gets more posts in a week than your map help forum has in its total lifetime.

Somewhat stupid question ahead....

How do I grab the Oinkerwinkle's tools? I don't have em yet and they'd simplify a lot of my model editing attempts.

 

[SD_Ryoko]

Sorry, I thought someone had direct links

Well, google eventually pointed me to oinkerwinkle.com.

Unless they are linked on their forums I don't think you can. Are they linked on their forums? I know you don't need help anymore, I'm just curious.

www.wc3campaigns.net

Thanks to phyrex1an for this.

It was .com before.

 

[Darg]

is there something wrong with my browser? all I get is a black page.

edit: it is my browser. Its working fine for me in MSIE, not in Firefox. I can hear the shockwave intro but can't see it.

I must say, I never ever expected them to resurrect it this quickly. Not sure what to think of it...

I feel like... they faked it. Or something a long those lines.

Lame.

All that time and Draco never fully fixed the site; I wonder how long it will take for the new forums. And I wonder if there users will come back.

 

[phyrex1an]

I think that there is a chance for this to not be a fake. Quit big chance actualy.

(Not exact since he has removed it)

<riddle>Sometimes the correct way to spell COM is NET</riddle>

Well I dont know what that means, but that was what made me put .net insteed of .com.

 

[SD_Ryoko]

No I meant, they fake shutting down.

 

[phyrex1an]

100% missunderstod you.

But why should they do that? Now the last members probelby allredy found other sites or things to do. The only thing they have now is a huge wc3 database.
Questions, questions.

 

[XXXconanXXX]

They didn't fake it.

Draco's name isn't Tim, I know that for sure.

Tim (RodofNOD I *think*) most likely got the site from Draco and is setting up the new domain on a different server.

Since it's under new management, it should be somewhat close to the original state as it was before.

 

[The Helper]

LOL! A Flash page saying we are Back is not the site reborn. Given how screwed up the site was before it died I would not starting counting chickens before they hatch. In other words, wait until they get something else up before saying they are back or speculating what the impact of them coming back would be. It just has not happened yet.

 

[SD_Ryoko]

Mega gay flash video.

Especially since uh.... they only had 2 weeks of downtime so far.

Hope he didn't have to pay for it.

God only knows why the site was in such horrible condition all that time.

I was looking around the other day. Forums for PHPBB2 has like 10 guys who write and kick out database converters for posts, users, everything. And free too I think. Hell, even if it was a little donation, not bad.
