ah yes Crono, i remeber that transitional time when it was going downhill .. i was working two and a half irl jobs which is why i handed management over to Jinx, then back to me, then my biggest mistake was to hand management to Panny, and she is the one who requested it be shut down - like 3 or 4 years ago after so much hacking went on with it.
This was in the days before npc servers, when everything was clientside.
Now i know how to make npcs much more securely and store certain variables serverside and in database npcs, or in serverr.variables if need be.
This was also back when uploads were done with ftp, not through rc, so when the ftp name and password leaked, the overworld and basically everything got deleted five times in three days or something.
and browing through my website, i found some other old memories ...
