the one where you have to keep the guy in the air as far as you can and the females were like power ups.

i remember that game.

it was fun; http://megami.starcreator.com/nanaca-cra sh/

any updates on anything?

Has RG lost its domain again?

I don't like this flow . . .

im assuming quikfox has lost interest in the site (like we all have).

And...they don't even say anything about why they stopped the project.

Indeed :(

well it's a lot of work to make a site like that, and re-do it all over again. and i don't exactly see a thousand people lining up waiting for the site to be back up. wouldn't it feel like a waste of time to put such hard work into a site that only ten people would actually visit?

yeh, i came to that realization about a month after retrogade was last up.

its just that qf was teasing us with delicious layouts and shit.

and now because of that my hard on for him and the site wont go soft.
*sigh*
quite a bummer.

Hey,
So it's been awhile since alot of us have ever talked to each other...
But I was wondering the other day, does anybody still have the source code?
I'm interested in maybe bringing Retrogade back, I've got temp server for it...
Anyone have it or actually want to give it up? Let me know
doucet_02@hotmail.com

Thanks!
Peace

So is the site up yet? No?

Alright, I'll check back in another six months. Until then.

That sucks. I would have loved to see the good ol' days of Retrogade while it was still around. Maybe that new retrogade.com fucked it up? :(

I do wonder something. It's been ages since we last heard from SK and QF. The last time we heard from either of them was in February. Also, it seems SK got married in June, so perhaps real life took over. *sigh* Oh well.

BTW, I don't like to sound impatient, but we have waited for months for something to happen and we've heard nothing. I understand it can take a while to build a site like RG, but an update once in a while would have been nice. However, if both of them gave up on restarting RG, there's not much I can do. It's their decision after all, but I wish I heard something by now.

Could we host RG normally on a host like HostMonster for example?

I'd be willing to help out but like i wouldn't do much with RG to be honest. I would just be like the money side of RG and let like the people who were running RG before (QuilkFox? ShittyKitty?) continue running the site as they see fit.

Actually, never mind.

I forgot that Retrogade.org was already on HostMonster and Quilk fox just showed a picture of RG 6.2 so yeah. Never mind.

Hello there. I'm working on a surprise for you.

ribbed, sensitive, extra-thin condoms?

-Keep dreaming Malachy. I get my hands on those first.
-As for the surprise, I'm guessing Retrogade is coming back? :/

Why is this still in my bookmarks?

Because condoms are funny.

yay!

I'm officially stating for the record that I won't be working on bringing Retrogade back. Between a full-time job and trying to help the wife finish college and everything else, I just don't have the time that I used to when I would sit on my ass and not study for classes. RG was a very valuable experience for me; I enjoyed the community, and my programming work on that site was my introduction to PHP and running an active website.

Anywho, I'll see if I can ZIP up the old website code and database contents and find somewhere to post them. I'm sure I've still got that stuff buried on my hard drive somewhere. And if anyone's interested in myself, here's a few ways you can find me:

Personal websites: http://jfsoftware.com and http://www.joshnsarah.com
Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=8 325840
AIM: joshua70448

Oh, and you can all thank RedCircle for causing me to come back and post this. He hunted me down on Facebook the other day, and it got me thinking about things.

I'll post again later this evening (or later this week, depending on when I can get time) when I get the website code stored somewhere. I haven't talked to QF, but if you guys want someone to restart RG, he'd probably be the guy to talk to. Good luck!

Oh, and I just noticed that I'm posting this exactly 1 year since my last message. I rule.

Good luck with things and consider yourself e-stalked.

I hope somebody takes up the reigns for you.

I'm disappointed to hear that, but of course, real life events are a higher priority than a website. Best of luck to you in the future and thanks for taking care of RG while it was still around. I do hope someone is able to host it sometime in the future.

Kurt, just do it. No one will ever step up except for you.

I NEED MORE STAT WHORING!!!!

Erm, link is dead or site is?

Still working on the uploads; I think I've found a place I can upload the code to (it's 800MB split into 3 ZIP files) and I'll leave it running overnight.

At 12/16/08 01:02 PM, Tantalization wrote: Erm, link is dead or site is?

The site's been down for a while now; I ran out of hosting funds and time to keep it running, so I shut it down.

Alrighty, the Retrogade source code, images, and database entries are ZIPped up and uploaded:

Everything (including the database) except the Photoshop folder (6001 files, 121MB):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EBD6YD49

Photoshop folder (part 1 of 2) (7781 files, 246MB):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4WQHWIEP

Photoshop folder (part 2 of 2) (2905 files, 440MB):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RAS8ODRP

The files are set up with the proper folder structure; just unZIP each one into the same folder. The server setup info (server info.txt) and database backups (dbbackups folder) are in the first ZIP file. Any questions, feel free to post them or email me (email will be better if you ask beyond a few days from now).

- SK

Amazing. How do I always come back just in time for stuff like this?

SK, thanks for trying, and for the time you kept the site afloat.

Malachy is right, we all grow. Hell, I'm past stat whoring. I don't even care about 360 achievements and I'm posting on a forum without a post count.

Still guys, make sure to drop me a line though, if anything happens. I can always return to owning your stat-less asses if the site goes back up somehow, someway.

Farewell again for another God-knows-how-long, folks!

Hey people, I was a retrogade member but wasn't really active... been checking up on this thread every so often. I downloaded the source code and looking at the sizes etc... would be quite happy to host it on my server. But since i was never really an active or well-known member I dunno if you guys would want me to.

So yeah if enough of you want me to or you don't get a better offer.. catch me on aim: wastedwizard123

And i will see what i can do :)

I think something was wrong with the Photoshop Folders because basically there was just folders with nothing inside of them. I'll have to try re-downloading them to see if I still get the same issue.
