As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.
Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.
No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

My family. (You never realize how valuable your family is to you until you are separated from them.)<br /><br />The Earthbound series. (The Japanese name "Mother" has significance to me. The number of each installment reflects the number of children she had when the game was first released.)
Numbers two and six seem like good ones to keep in mind. Sega could create a SatAM game if they wanted to do so without permission from the other companies involved with the SatAM/Archie franchise for that reason. Likewise, it also means they can shut down Sea3on. As long as they show respect for their fans, I say that we should try to support the companies that have those copyrights and their franchises. When they stop showing respect for their fans, it might be a good idea to avoid their products and wait for them to get their act together.
I'm pretty sure that the founding fathers of America would be disappointed if they knew about these laws and treaties that Americans are having imposed on them these days. It should be the rights of people that come first, not copyrights. Without people to come up with ideas, there would be no copyrights. I know copyright infringment is serious, but some things about it are absurd. Example, how can a dead person continue to produce new works years after his or her death? I think that maybe they should have a much more limited lifespan. At least that way they can say they reduced piracy, even though the way they did might defeat the point.
I haven't been on for a while, mostly busy.
I'm kind of surprised the video game industry hasn't tried to turn those online passes into something they can use to get money from pirates by authorizing a game for a system if they pay to buy the "Authenticity pass." They could ruin the game for pirates unless they pay. (Make it unplayable, break the game in a number of spots, extra ammo comes in very small amounts, ect.) The money from authorization passes could go to the proper companies to make sure they are paid. I'm not encouraging piracy, but I don't see why the video game industry hasn't considered trying to reclaim money they lost because of it from the pirates themselves now that they can sell DLC and games online.
Definitely the wrong way to handle this. Yeah, piracy is a problem, but thing is that the laws they are trying to pass are like dropping an A-bomb to deal with something that should be handled by a trained professionals You don't tear down your house because of a pest problem, you hire a professional to get rid of the pest while keep the rest of the house safe.
Hammer, I think Robotnik's American voice actor is still around. If I'm not mistaken, he was the voice of the Terror Mask in the Splatterhouse remake that was released last year.
