Hi Phil, I *JUST* (1 minute ago) updated the AudioGames.net website with the following news about broken links:
(quote) Secondly, we have set up a new forum to report and discuss broken links. The reason is this: AudioGames.net contains hundreds and hundreds of links to external websites. There are many things that can happen to the external website that causes links on AudioGames.net to go broken. For example: the website's layout or contents is changed by the owner, the website ceases to exist, the website's server goes offline for a period of time, the download files are taken offline because version x.x of [game] is no longer supported, the download files have reached a maximum, etc. etc. So some links are broken permanently and some only temporarily. In the past we requested people to report broken links to us via email, but unfortunately this resulted in a chaos of broken links. That's why we have setup a new forum where people can post broken links themselves, as well as post other information about the broken link, such as the possible new correct link or information why the link is broken. You can view the forum here: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewforum.php?id=18 (quote end) Hahahaha... I really can't believe you just posted this :). Thanks and I'll update the link :) If anyone else has a problem with broken links or lost websites or bought-up domains, please use http://forum.audiogames.net/viewforum.php?id=18 to discuss them. (Or visit Phil's site and see if he has got a working link ;) Thanks!
