KLOV is down. Not only is the database down (as it's been for a couple days off and on), but now the forums are down as well...
:hissy:
-
My lunch hour just got a whole lot more boring......
:angry:
-
yep. That really sucks. Does anyone know who runs it any more?
-
I am just glad to hear it is down and not being blocked by the IT Nazis here at work.

Not a clue. I heard rumors that no one really runs the site, just a small collective with too little time and/or interest on their hands. I would love to pick it up. Got a few ideas to make the site more resilient to aging. But meh, whatever.
Does anyone have any contacts on the "inside" that could give us a clue on what's up? Would hate for the plug on such an extensive database be pulled with no word.

Some guy named "McLemore" Runs KLOV. He pops into the forum once in a blue moon.
I wish he would hand over the Database to someone who actually gave a darn.

I've asked him if I could put together a team to update KLOV a couple times. Two times ago he seemed open to the idea. Since then he's not replied to any of my PM's.

I'm suffering withdrawal today..even went over to RGVAC I was so desperate ;D
Hey frizz, drop me a pm if you read this, I have a link for the download you wanted.
-
so am I! There is so much info stored in the forums that would be a real shame to lose! Someone needs to save it!
<I even went to RGVAC today too. Forgot how much of a pain it is to do without the nice web forum that KLOV used>

I've had to actually work today (ok, maybe only part of the day)
Though it gave me a chance to catch up in other sections here at BYOAC, I hadn't been checking on the latest projects lately
I notice you have Rushing Heros listed in your gamelist, need anything for that? I've been sitting on a NOS kit and I don't even like football, lol.

Nope, don't need anything for it. I picked up one of the many NOS kits floating around and made my own conversion with my son. It was his first game project and he actually loves to play the game. I'll keep it around until he tires of it, then will free up the slot for a real classic.
-
Yeah, I picked one up to use the board to test out jamma harnesses, no more need for it though ;D
-
Can you even register for an account with KLOV anymore? I remember I had to 'sneak in' by registering with some kind of cancer forum and then backing into KLOV forums...
It is not a straight-forward process. I had to ask and get a link that I could not find otherwise to get to the register page.
-
To tell the truth I don't even remember how I registered but it was a pain. In fact, I thought I had registered and tried it and it didn't work. A couple of months later, I was registered !?!?!?!?
Anyway, I miss it already....
Maybe I even miss the MSpaeth vs. <Fill in a couple of names> debates :D
Always good for some :jerry

True, but the search sucks big time !
Anyone, despite it's flaws, it's a great source of info and stuff.....
-
The search is terrible, but just do a google search!
