    I actually went on the site a week or two ago(?), was still working then. Doug was still doing his Wrestling Guru stuff.

    Caught up with Inno for a beer a couple of weeks ago and he mentioned that he didn't think the main site would still be there as he didn't think Groovico would still be paying for the domain and hosting.

    I checked the site out last week and it was still there but I suspect either the hosting has now run out or there's been some sort of server error which in all probability won't be fixed.

    What sig? Wink

    The old forums were great but without the main site there's no way that we could reach that level ofpopularity again. IMO the forums of 2002-2005 before the first meltdown were a total one off that couldn't be repeated.

    Unfortunately, agreed

    We can but try though, and this only costs about £15 a year for the URL so it's not breaking the bank to keep it going for the games and general conversation.

    Hi Guys,

    My name is Matthew Evans, I helped out with Smash from 2002 and helped out Doug with general site things from 2006. I've heard nothing official but we've both concurred that the site probably isn't coming back. Obviously, this is very unfortunate and sad, but all good things come to an end, as they says.

    In the meantime, I've set up a temporary one at Google (there's also a link there to my blog):


    https://sites.google.com/site/ringriot/home

    Going forward, I'm planning to do a proper site early next year. If anyone wants to get on board or has some ideas to share on this then PM me.

    Merry Christmas & Happy New Year all!
