what's does it mean "Welcome to the home of runningthescene.org To change this page, upload your website into the public_html directory"?
:/ heard some time bak that they had some server probs but im not sure if that is what closed the site down as they had just let in hundreds of new members and i was one of them, went to sign in couple of days later and they were gone :S
it means rts is gone.
RTS = RIP pitty
yeah its been gone for weeks
Supposedly they were coming back, but I haven't seen any of the original staff (e.g. mota)around for weeks, so I doubt it.
It's a parking page from their webserver.
They went offline I believe because their server got too expensive.. said they'd be coming back. I personally couldn't care less.
I know the guy who was the coder for RTS. He tells me they got hacked. Last I heard they were planing on making a comeback.
supposedly they would be down for about 3 months but if you want to find out for sure try their irc they said tehy would keep updated news there
That's what I was gonna say! :DQuote:

^^ that looks nice .. even better than RTS v.1
i hope this time they set the userlimit around 12k-15k
Yup it's even better that RTS 1 :)
will former users be able to log in, or do they have to sign up?
It says in the login page that previous users will NOT be able to get in. And the new site looks nice, BTW. :)
yeah, i read that. well i gues it will take them some more weeks to get it done.Quote:

The site looks awesome. Looked great before, but now forget about it.
I just hope that this time around ....
RTS2 will be back soon (~2 weeks +/- 3days), there will be only about 300-500 users from old RTS, most active users ...
Best of luck to RTS with the new userbase. It is probably smart to eliminate those accounts that were created during the last few weeks of open signup that site had. However, I can't see how they're going to avert the same problems that they had the previous time they opened (community too small, not active enough, not enough people for donations, etc.)
Yeah, I wondered exactly the same thing - I even pmed Frozen the new sysop. He said that the server funding was a lot cheaper than the first time, and that staff would be able to fund the site at least 12 months. He also said people will be active if there is something worth downloading on the site, and that there would be a lot more releases on site, with good speeds (dont know if thats going to be true or not though). As for the community, I assume they will grow slowly, building a good userdatabase.Quote:
