Probably the best thing to ever happen to the internet and "dead" sites, from clanmecca to old school layouts, it's all there...

discuss.

[Caged Anger]

(twiddlies thumbs)

so...where's the archive?

[TheMaster]

I don't like waiting in suspense like this DD buddy. So where is that link?

[BobtheCkroach]

Gosh, people. The number one piece of advice I hear on this site (and I swear everyone of you has said it :P ) is "google it".

Very first listing on google for "The Internet Archive"....sheesh

http://www.archive.org/

It's pretty kewl - if you put in gamemecca, you can see the old stuff from when SAL first rolled it out...it was waaaaaaaaaay different!

As for DD, what security alert? I've never hard a security thing go off for DD.

Also, for some reason, when DD said his shpeel and then said "discuss", the first thing I thought of was Mike Myers' character from the SNL skit "Coffee Talk"...."I'm getting all Verklempt! Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic: The chick pea is neither a chick nor a pea. Discuss."...hehehe

wonder if it's skin related, or your browser, I never get those. That's with Mozilla or FF. I use default style forums as well.


Hey Shogun, say Bye bye to the Aints :P

That was back in the days when I wanted GM to focus on gaming news instead of community...then I realized there were about a million other sites that cover gaming news. :)

[Dangerous Dan]

That explains it...first thing I do is hit that check mark when that pops up...never see it again...

[Dangerous Dan]

lol, is it still happening? am i officially cursed?

[BobtheCkroach]

lol, is it still happening? am i officially cursed?

I have no clue, dan...I was just commenting on why I couldn't see it (i turn stupid windows messages off...). I was just draggin' on a completely different but totally within-your-thread conversation...you'll have to ask one of them. You never bothered me, Dan!

[OUTLAWS Tip]

I never get a warning either. I am sure I must have checked that box the first time I saw it also.
:D

He he

Incidently, that's a freakin' sweet quote you got in your sig, Tip...I'm stealing it :P

[ME BIGGD01]

dan, i am still getting it. :(

[Dangerous Dan]

lol, well there's NOTHING in my sig anymore, any suggestions?

maybe Sal could investigate my account, see if there's any hocus pocus going on

[SALvation]

There was still the potatowned gif in your sig dan. I removed it so go ahead and try now.

[Dangerous Dan]

that's strange, potatowned didn't show up for me, but that would make sense, seeing how that site went under a few weeks ago.
