Hi everybody,

when I saw this link and "the old frugalsworld" homepage, I had somehow mixed feelings.
On the one hand I was glad the "stuff" was online again. (Though the forums-link was missing).
On the other hand I read this as a sign that it is not comming back. I truely hope I am wrong in this point.

Is there any news?

Grettings,
Jones

Last I heard was a post from Frugal earlier in this thread. It's looking less and less like FW will be back to me. Such a shame.....


Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”

If it's not going to be coming back for the long term, I'd at least like Frugal to put it up for 1-2 months and let us get all the content off of the posts we can get. There is tons of posts / threads that only exist at Frugalsworld.com and no where else. Those will be forever lost if we don't get a chance to retrieve them. I'm talking specifically about modding/editing Falcon 4.0 and Falcon 4.0: AF type posts/threads.

Good to see him on the major news.
Hopefully, he will prove that no news is good news.

Well after a heart attack and triple bypass, I am alive and well but find Frugal's is dead!
Come on Mark fire up a defibulator and revive FW.
I'm shure there is a frugalite with some server space available for a transplant.

Rapid, sorry to hear of your mis-fortune but heartened to hear you are doing better now!

I 2nd your motion for Mark to fire FW back up! I miss it terribly for the old modding / development posts which are located no where else.

Over at the yuku site I made the suggestion to BBall that Frug should box up the server and send it to Acog, a counter suggestion was made to box up Acog and send him to Frug. Acog refuses to go because of some issue concerning UK food. The impasse still stands for now.

Better yet, turn the server into a VMWare image and then ship that off to whomever can run the site.

Its not the hosting that is the problem for Mark, its repairing the database files which would require time he didn't have (maybe still doesn't have?). When/if he does, we will have to see. If you get the time to read the front end of this thread there are a few posts from him explaining more.

I hope this doesn't turn out to be like the old Delphi Falcon forum - not gone due to the same reasons, but a beloved great place long gone.

Tried to check in today... haven't been an active participant in a long time, but still miss it every two months or so when I try to check back. One of those friendly places.

Frugal (Mark?), thanks for keeping it running all those years. Hope to see it back up again eventually, but if not... t'was good while it lasted!
