Now FSPlanet too?

SOH-CM-2014
I check this place every now because they sometimes have stuff you can't get anywhere else. Every new year it takes 2-3 months to get things going there. I have been checking for the usual bust out of 2011 uploads until today. Now I get the 'page cannot be found' death notice. Have they been hacked too?
 
FS Planet

They lost there server and all files. They have to start all over like we did at SOH.
 
I always understood them to be not the most upstanding host site.... I might be wrong. Didn't they at least used to host files w/o the permission of the original author?

Yep and as far as I'm concerned, good riddance. They had a bunch of my old stuff on there and wouldn't take it down.

Yep, same here, and they didn't seem to care where they got it, or whose it was. In some cases they would even strip the readme of any pertinent info (like the developers name and contact info), to make it appear like they had done all the work. If they lost everything. . .it couldn't have happened to a better group.:salute:

I can think of one... absquad.
 
Oh well, the website is back "up" sort of... Lot's of missing images, and downloads from the remote server seem to be broken as well...
 
That's too bad that they would hose people like that. I had no idea so hope I don't have anything that was altered.
 
There was another one that I can't remember the name of off the top of my head that was the same way with freeware, but would charge money for a membership to download it. I went around with them for quite a while trying to either take my stuff down or give me a cut of the action. They never did either.
