Don't let the SCUMM Bar die.

I first thought, this has to be a joke.

It's especially unfair after you announced an update.

 

It is the only site I visit regularly since I first started Netscape.

I can't imagine life without the SCUMM Bar.

I'd even invest a bunch of money, if it could help to get it up and running again.

 

Internet without the SCUMM Bar is like a Hard Disk without Monkey Island.

So sayeth Retro-Mojo

The good news is, we just heard back from the disk recovery specialists, and our damaged hard drive can be recovered 100%. That means that sometime in the near future Mixnmojo, its hosted sites, and pretty much the rest of the LFNetwork community will be back on its feet.

 

Well Mr Skyfox, it appears that all the data can be recovered!

 

I guess this means that you'll just have to KEEP RUNNING THE SITE!!!!!

Ian,

 

I don't see why it couldn't come back after all this ego boosting now (¬¬). If remi doesn't want to run it maybe you should seriously think of finding someone else. It would be such a waste after so many years of good times (and free grog!) to just close it.

 

I also don't understand why you don't have a more active role in what originally was yours, but that is your business not mine i guess. I think from all the posts here you can see people want it back.

 

And from someone else who lives in lpool i don my black curly scouser wig and humbly quote the god of scousers:

 

o/~ ALLL WEEE AREEE SAYYYIN IS GIVE SCUMMBAR A CHANCEEE o/~

Give it to me, you pay for it, I'll run it! (I'm well aware that that would never happen and you have no intention of giving this site to a complete stranger, but considering everyone else was making stupid comments like this, I thought I might as well jump on the bandwagon).

 

Face it guys, the site is gone, let it rest, RIP Scumm Bar, Non Timetis Messor.

'ey! 'ey! calm down!

 

Actually, what I can't deny is the HUGE ego boost.. you are quite right there. I mean, it's fantastic isn't it!

 

For me though, online comminities are a very tiny teeny part of my life now. It was there when I needed it, but now, I no longer have the time nor the motivation to take an active role. I'm happy to just sit at the back, cracking the whip ;P

Let me know...

 

hmmmmm....I would love the SCUMM Bar to come back, obviously, everyone would, but I also think if you're going to close it, close it! If you re-open it the next time you want to close it the responce might not be as big - why not close it on a high.

 

Don't hate me for that :S, I loved the SCUMM Bar, they hosted me when no one else would ;) and had the best Monkey Island News and Content on the Internet.

I couldn't agree more! But I have pressures on me! I mean, Remi has my cat held hostage, gabez wants a job (ever seen a grown man beg? sheesh!) and what tim wants... tim gets...

Hear, Hear! Still, no reason to revive the site and have an undead monster plague the internet.

 

I have a great idea: Why don't you open an altogether new site under different screen name and start from scratch? After a while just steal content from the old Scumm Bar and pretend it is fresh. Whadayasay?

Sorry, but this is just impossible, you can´t just stop one of the greatest sites ever! Think of Gabez, Think of Tim! Don´t stop the beat! if you really want to stop you could give the scepter to someone else, there are a lot of ppl in here who would be glad to take on that resposibility. Don´t let the flame go out, keep the Monkey Island fire burning.

 

KEEP THE SCUMMBAR ALIVE

 

 

Scull out.

Never mind Gabez and Tim its me youve gotta watch out for matey, I know where you go to college. When you're stood at the train station, looking across at that building that looks remarkably Grim Fandango-esq, tremble, for any random person that walks past could suddenly grab you by the lapels, pin you against the wall and scream 'You bastard! you closed it! you closed it!'.....unless you give it to Gabez of course.

 

At least that way he wont be able to fob me off with excuses like 'I dont know what you're talking about', he's a terrible terrible liar.

 

[Edit] Scull thought I was threatening him, I'm not, I'm threatening Skyfox, thats right I know all about his 'screaming fanboy' phobia, thats why he's going to agree to my demands
