I heard on IRC that site and everything it hosted was recently closed. Sure enough, quick Google search confirms the pages are down. A lot of valuable ROM hacking resources...

Myself, I'd lost the majority of ROMs and emulators I had because of a partitioning error. Can someone link me to the latest Lunar Magic version? Needless to say, it's official page is gone again.

Edit: Thanks. Quick response too.

Originally, I think Sliver-X originally was owner of panicus, but he left the rom-hacking scene forever, never to come back ever, because he wanted to start a new life since he was moving to a new state (but *SURPRISE* he came back to the scene).

But anyway, after Sliver-X quit, Olaf became the new owner. He's a shady guy who probably never should be owner of any internet-based anythings in my opinion. I mean, I don't remember when "must be a highschool-dropout who lights up/does drugs all the time" became a requirement for webhosts , but if you look at Acmlmboard history, we've had plenty of them. Sure, maybe they didn't do drugs or anything like that, but they SURELY weren't the best host admins for various reasons.

Anyway, Olaf took the site down. I don't really need to comment on that log, it truely speaks for itself. This doesn't mean panicus is gone forever, if someone wants to take it over, it can come back. I don't know if the site itself can be salvaged, because typically when people get pissed off and take down sites, they don't save an archive in case someone else wants to take over.

Anyway, that's what happened. Sorry if I sound a little harsh, but I'm in one of those "speak your mind" moods right now.

I remember them for another reason, the flame war. It was about six weeks ago. I'd made a typo on rohmacking, which got me kicked out of there. It spilled over into rom-hacking where those two started to gang up. Xk was involved too, but not as an op in that room. Soon, Sliver-X and Olaf kicked me from from rom-hacking also. Coincidentally... I was the only person involved not using profanity. At least I'm allowed back in both rooms now.

Oh well, didn't sign up on panicus due to having enough free hosting accounts and therefore storage space as it is. It'd have been redundant.

That's really sad with panicus.org.
It's not the matter finding new hosters again (as long as the ROM hackers kept backups of their web-sites, and their documents and files of course), but the best thing would be, if all found another host which is ... reliable and is one domain only.
So you could access and contact all these people easier, since they wouldn't be scattered throughout the internet.

On the other hand panicus was free. Moving to a paid host could distract some of those people (although it would be safer, since they simply cannot put down your page (without violating rulses of course, but since ROM hackers distribute no ROMs usually [...]).

This puts a smile on my face.


(To be honest though, it'd be nice if I could've gotten a copy of the site before he blew it up)

This explains why I was unable to download LM the other day. :V

Oh well. Shows why you don't let people who don't care/are emotionally unstable to take over.

Uh-huh. Instead of kicking me on sight if they were so inclined to make sure I was gone, they started flaming. And the one still behaves like an ass about it. From ||board (ugh!):


Sliver-X - Tue 12 Jun 2007 11:26:49 AM PDT: I'm not one of XKeeper's "Buddies"; you were banned from #rom-hacking because you and that other person (Who I can't remember their nickname) are annoying, stupid fucktards.

It takes a *lot* to be banned from our channel, but you two managed it in less than a week. Congratulations!


Treating a fellow rom hacker like that? Bah! The disagreement wasn't even about rom hacking in any way, but still. I think sirhax0r or somebody was kicked by them around the same time back then.

Hm. I guess I'll just hope the people being hosted kept copies of their data.

Mwahaha! It's dead! (Unless somebody wants to give me money).

I hope I can at least renew the domain name next month, so some sleazy site squatter doesn't snatch it up. If everything works out as I've planned, I may be able to ressurect the site (Paying for a year or two of block server space) in July.

Maybe.

Also:

Seriously, if there were any cosmic justice in the universe your mother would've had a headache the night you were conceived.

Hey, Sliv.

Mind passing a .RAR of the site to me? (7z, zip, whatever.)

If nothing else, I could temporarily mirror parts of it that people want on xkeeper.shacknet.nu:5...

I did two backups of the site, but something is fucked up on our host's server because the TAR in the TAR.GZ archive of the entire site was corrupt both times.

So there is nothing unless I can get the site back up in a few weeks. I'm hoping I can, which will result in me switching to a new host with much more resources.

You do realize that account was deleted because he got another one, right?

It wasn't relevant, meaningful, or even vaguely amusing.

Things like this are only contributing to the negative attention you're getting.
