Alright guys, I have read about Lyla's reaction to the loss of data and I do understand the impact it can have of losing a part of your creative content. I am myself working around 15 hours daily in the creative business so I am very familiar with the ups and downs. I do hope sincerely that she will return to provide updates about her work as I know that she is aware of my admiration of her contribution to the community.
That being said, the loss of data is something that is out of my hand. Of course I did my best to make sure of our webhosts bizarre handling of the server move, trust me. But there are limits to what I can do you see. There is no way that I can recover any threads. I know that Benoit has spend time on finding some lost threads through search engines and I salute him for the effort.
Please keep in mind that I have maintained this website for over 10 years now for you fans to find a home where you can discuss and share your pointers about the series. Back when I launched this website, I was rather young and very excited to "create my own homepage" about one of my hobbies. Time has passed and now, I am on a full-time+ (!) schedule and do not have the same amount of hours and energy as I had once to keep this community alive. Therefor, I am hoping that our members help to built up the community again. Something that I cannot do on my own
I would like to thank all our members that have participated in discussions throughout the years. Thank you.
If there are members here that feel that they do want to leave this community, then I would advice you strongly to not leave the Phantasy Star community and instead find your home at a different PS message board. I would highly recommend
Fringes of Algo maintained by Thoul, a great webmaster that have been in the community since the beginning and knows its grounds, and an awesome community of fans!
I hope that we will continue discussions Phantasy Star for another 10 years!
