Just dont delete the database!  Who knows maybe it can be trotted out much farther down the road as a Legacy game or something.

I know you're not planning on it.  But please, please at least consider it. 

I can understand enforcing copyright laws upon free private servers of games that are active and presently generating revenue.  That is reasonable.  But for a game to simply vanish without a trace when there are people that would love to continue to experience the world isn't. 

I beg you Raijinn, at least try.

EDIT: Villemar's right. DON'T DELETE ANYTHING.

FOR REAL COME ON let us have them sell them to us we WANT TO KEEP PLAYING

Folks, not to be a party pooper (whenever someone says that...they end up being a party pooper...) but there's a whole lot of copyrights so you probably won't see any code released. Sorry!

I've begun OPERATION_ARCHIVE

Any thing and everything MxO I can get my hands on I will be archiving (such as mission posts and player fanart etc...)

The aim is to make it available online once these forums go down.

Nelly Furtado says:

Honestly, what will become of me?
I don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really life is dandy
We are what we don't see
We miss everything daydreaming
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?

What about releasing the forum database (minus any restricted posts which people like me can't see anyway)? I'd be more than willing to put the effort into converting it and putting it online as a static forum for the sake of posterity.

I very much like this idea.  As strange as it sounds, DN1 Offtopic section has been much of my source for internet news...

open the test server after the close date let us rome around n hang out!  

GODTIER IS TROLLING ME!!!
