Just sent an e-mail out to Sol Lord (Admin). I think he is the only one that can look into a complete failure of the site.
I believe I used the correct e-mail address, I've not had to resort to email with him in some time, normally just send PM's back and forth. Last contact was 2 days ago.
EDIT: Of coure, even if it is the correct e-mail address, it is middle of the night, so may not get fixed right away.

Oops. I assumed as it was on the first page, threads this old usually don't linger this long on the first page of topics. Then again, there is only one page. I just didn't bother with checking the post date because of that.
That's a shame though. I'll miss it, even if traffic there wasn't what it used to be.

Even if not as active as it used to be. I still had a ton of personally made direct links to materials on the forums and hosted sites.
In the end, of my links:
22 links were deleted (12 discussion threads, 10 story previews)
46 were redone to point to either Internet Archive/Wayback, or other sites,
Of the 10 preview links deleted, they were:
The 10 deleted story links included:
- R-EH 'Untitled Ranma El Hazard Cross' by RedMenace
- R-MULTI 'Two Heros' by Chedving
- R-SM 'Chaos to the Infinite Power' by Golden Arms
- R-SM 'Unnamed Ranma-SM Project' by Golden Arms
- R-SM 'What The Hell' by Matdeception
- R-TM 'Days In The Wind' by DoorKnob
- R-TM 'Disconnected Scene' by Chrono_Scholar
- R-UNKNOWN 'Untitled' by Matdeception
- RANMA 'Round Robin Challenge' by Multiple
- SM-MULTI 'Restarting the Bet A challenging Spamfic' by ellf
I've sent notices by various means to Redmenace, Golden Arms, Matdeception, and ellf. Of them:
- RedMenace indicated he was considering reposting preview material to other sites, called it a 'firm maybe'
- Matdeception was surprised, and did not know it had gone down, but had me send him the couple I had, as he could not even remember one of them.
- Golden Arms and ellf I had not heard anything from.
Keep in mind, there were far more stories than that in the forums, those were merely the ones I could not get elsewhere and liked enough to do.

Last updated in Feb 2006, which actually may be everything. Just need something to open .gz files.
Then there shall be joy, bliss, splendor, and world peace.

http://archives.eyrie.org/anime/Ranma/ is the same one? If so, I found one other copy somewhere, but didn't keep track of the site.
Meh.
I'm having a bitch of a time getting beehive to upgrade itself from an old 0.5 back up to the 0.9.1. I've already sunk about 5hours into it over the last two days and as much as I would love to get it up this weekend its not looking to likely. I can only spend some much time adjusting an 11MB sql file to make it parse through the converter script before I get the urge to kill something... with fire.
In all likely hood once I restore the old 2005 database it will be locked given it's age and I will look towards using SMF or phpBB instead of beehive.
