So you wouldn't need to register again, just use your existing message board account to get into the chatroom.

🙏 A BIGGGGGGGGGGG thank you to Bobbie,IE,and all the "executive" staff for all your hard work on this problem. The dedication is very much appreciated. Dave

I'm reading the EA for years, nothing more but this hacker changed my mind just a bit to provide a possible "solution"...

Did you ever consider moving the chat to I2P? Maybe there's a way to host a backup of the EA there if the hole site comes repeatedly under attack e.g. DDoS...

p.s.

Keep up the good work

Ok folks, I have something up and running that may work, but before I try to open it up to everyone, I want to get a handful of volunteers to help beta test it. Anyone interested can message me for access information.

He replied and said "fuck off" as well.

How creative.

Just for laughs how much was he asking for? I need a good laugh. Sheepy:D

They didn't say. Haven't heard a thing back. The email was probably faked and I chewed out the wrong person!

I admit. I'm VERY surprised. I thought there was more demand to get the chat room back than this. To date, I've gotten precisely ONE volunteer to help test out the new room.

Until I can get more people willing to come in and check it out so I can see what kind of load it puts on the server, and that kind of thing, I will not be opening it up to the general public.

You want it back? It's out of my hands now, its all up to you folks.

More than glad to help with the check, if I can. Thanks to all again for the time, effort, and what must be, great angst in dealing with all of this.
