Just went to log on, I check from time to time and it is gone!
I really thought that they would somehow resurrect it.

well the security certificate is down.

but it had to happen sometime

too bad :(

they had some lovely pixels and items. I donated there before the site even opened.

This happened before. Exactly three months ago. I think their update script is mistimed. It's not dead. Still there, in fact.



If you're wondering what I mean by this--Trisphee and Syndrone use the same certificate authority (the thing that makes https work), Let's Encrypt. It can be automated, and it expires every 3 months if you don't renew it.

Trisphee automatically updates its certificates a couple days before expiration, Syndrone...does not.

I will miss it when it's gone, even though I hardly check in there any more. I've had 0 motivation to do so since the "new" owners haven't done anything with the site.

[gremlin]

isn't the owner known to have commitment issues with their work? not sure if it's the same website...

[Kaderin Triste]

I just logged on just fine. It's definitely not officially dead yet. But honestly, it's been dying for the better part of a year. Especially after the latest owners stopped logging in about a month after buying the site.

[Ginger]

Why buy a website just to let it sit and go down the drain x.x

[Kaderin Triste]

Well they bought it and said they had some great changes/improvements they wanted to do...and then they just seemed to give up.
*shrug*
I have no clue what their logic for that was.

[daikokunyo]

It doesn't gnaw at them that they've spent money to buy it and now they're effectively wasting all the effort they did to acquire the site?

[Moonshadow]

I hope it's not dead. Thanks Toho for the information. Hopefully they will renew. I just tried logging on now and it is still down.

[daikokunyo]

I just visited it and the homepage is loading fine...
However this is evidence that the staff is simply not paying attention to it and that's bound to result in its shutdown sooner or later :(

[Moonshadow]

Yes! I just got on, and you are right, eventually they will just forget.

[Kaderin Triste]

I'm sure they already have forgotten. It's possible the payments are on an auto-pay schedule, so the owners aren't actively making the payments.

[Moonshadow]

Toho also said something about the security certificate not being paid automatically like he does for here. That is what alerted me and that is why the site went down. They must have paid the security certificate, so there is still hope.

[Tohopekaliga]

The certificate is free. You just have to make sure it gets renewed, typically by an automated script.

[Moonshadow]

Oh okay...I was too lazy to find and read your comment. Hopefully they put it on that automated script thing. (totally clueless about this stuff) haha
