Can i quickly say that the forum going down yesterday had nothing to do with the update to the site we're doing. Lol, that was out of our control i think XD;
Timing is a funny thing.

Anyways, while we're working on the site we will keep the forums active so that you guys have somewhere to go to at least. IF the forums should go down too then it's not us causing it, lol. However, as TRiP has said, keep checking the usual places for updates like twitter, facebook, DA etc etc if something should happen to the forums again.

Thanks again man ^^b mucho apreciated! Massive thanks to everyone who has been donating :) a little bit more and we'll have our new layout skin tommorow, I've had a few ppl ask while the site was down about donations so now the sites back up we'll most certainly meet our total. Wheee! I'm happy. I got a free kitkat today.


Sorry about all that downtime stuff I was freaking out and climbing the walls. I hate when this place goes down. You don't really notice until it's gone or when you get REALLY INSPIRED and realise you can't update! blargh lol. Glad you guys are all still around :)

Yay it's back up! I was starting to think it was my fault because I HAD PRESSED THE SELF DESTRUCT BUTTON. (in another topic) ;.;

Glad to hear things are moving along ^^ Can't wait to see the new skin. Any ideas as to what it'll look like?

First, that was not only awkwardly-timed, but also the most IRONICALLY timed outage. You said you were saving the music for last, but NOOOO, you took it ALL DOWN! :)

Scared me a good bit too, considering those previous assurances of forum up-age and it would have just been my luck that you all would have been taken down the moment the ball started rolling on the reformat...

Well, glad it's back up. Oh, and $50 donation from my pocket to yours. I decided that I can wait a little longer to get Scribblenauts and Katamari Forever. :)

Can i just say thank you to all of you for donating money to this. Naturally, i'm the wallet-man out of us Admins but lately we've been hit with a few bills and a couple of other unforseen issues, such as our computer monitor on the verge of a catastrophical melt down XD;;


Anyways, welcome back, sorry for the down time, hope it doesn't happen again and thanks for donating money to the new website. If it works out the way we imagine it then NiD.com will be quite sexy once we bring her back online. Not that she ain't sexy now but ...ya know ....5 years wearing the same outfit. It's bound to smell a bit, eh? :)

XD yeah i can agree with that. Our Angelfire days were certainly something (20MB!). And before that it was a web store called Spree that did free hosting.

Haha I was panicking so much over the weekend when I couldn't get into the site or the forums. I was like "No it's gone! Why did this place have to die!" I even sent Trippy a myspace message asking what happened. Never thought I'd be so concerned with a website.

*BOOSUM SMOTHER* ITS OK. ITS OK NOW. My poor kids! I shall make you all tea and scones.
Seriously though lol thanks for giving a damn. It's nice when i get reminded the fanbase is alive, just in stealth hibernation mode. (we only become active when it involves pissing off SEGA in some shape or form) harrharr.


And no the forums are fine the way they are, we only fixed them up a short while ago anyway :)

And now this thread makes me feel dirty, oh so dirty, and in need of a shower ^_^

Would love the tea and scones though, I've never had EITHER!

Furthermore, if you can fit the entire NiGHTs fanbase ON your tits, you either a) have a fanbase consisting of people the size of ants or b) have tits the size of the florida keys.

BA-ZING! <3

Lol well if you go to the current site menu and visit every single section then realise that i alone have to relink and recreate every page it might take more than a week. But I'm going to fire through it as fast as i can. So glad the art gallery is a database now and doesnt require hand coding. Man that old gallery was the stuff of suicide. One night i sat and made over 400 pages one by one by one. Then a few people whined at me that some links were broken.... *twitch* this job has its lows lol.

And yeah Viper me too, even if i'm not always full of banter I still like to read through topics and see what everyone else is up to.

I dont mean bright as in BLINDING WHITE like these forums, i mean cleaner with easier to read text. Because right now some of the pages (and the menu) blend into the black if you have a fuzzy screen

Ah. I thought you meant bright as in pastel purple or something. :/

I'm all for the overhaul, though. Can't wait to see it. Can we expect all the old sections to be there?

I link to the site directly, so I didn't see darling Owl. Is it wrong that, upon seeing him via Google, I yelled "HOOWHATVISITOR!"?

Bret- yeah all the old pages will be there but probably tweaked and have more added to since now its MADEASY for me to update the site. Like using quick reply in the forums XD

Dex- indeed we all come outta the woodwork whenever something happens. I'm hoping with the regular updates you guys will all hang around the forums more like today ^^

Noctourne- haha yeah the reason i have that file is because of SonicTeam being kind and giving me his Psd after AAUK asking XD I luffs owl!


EDIT- OMG LOL <3 my Uncle sent me a big TEA donation through paypal hhahahahaha love him lots! That was unexpected! Wicked, now i can drink cola until my eyeballs explode. XD yay for family!
