Hello! The time has come. PaperStarships shall rise from it's ashes, and be operational once again! The site itself will be uploaded within the next day, the models will be added back in afterwards. In the server disaster that destroyed the site 3 years ago no models were lost. Be prepared for a lot of new features, including model rating, and convenient sorting options when viewing models. There also will be a new forum as this one is, well, a little obsolete, and out of control. The new forum is already open for registrations, you can fint it here: paperstarships.tengun.net/forumThose who are still active members, please register over there, as this board will be slowly phased out. As PaperStarships is being restarted now, you may encounter errors and mishaps in the beginning. Please be patient, it is no easy task getting such a machinery to run again :-) See you soon: Enterprise-E |

i don't think it's really possible to retrieve content of this board. It was set on some dump freeware hosting (proboards21). By the way, I'm back too  EE, Mind giving mi moderator at new forums? ^_^ My account there is 'Amelek' by the way, consider installing phpBB 3 instead of phpBB 2 |

Excuse me for the delay, the site should be operational by now. There turned out to be a problem with the server again, that is why i cannot take the site online. It is quite annoying actually, and i do not know when it will be sorted. Those interested can have a sneak peek at how the site will look here: screenshotYeah, Ace you will be made moderator if you want it. I'd actually like to get staff, as i wont really have time to personally oversee the forum. Anyone knows somethingh about Nerath? |

Unbelievable, but the server still isn't running. If it won't be back in a couple days i'll begin searching for a temporary free hosting service. Any suggestions?

Ah, just mentioning. In the "general topics" section of the new board some bots have started around 20 junk threads for advertising stuff; maybe its been noticed already, if not, it'd be nice for an admin to delete those and probably ban the accounts. -thanks!

Hi Ace! Long time no see.
I tried the new site and it seems to be down.
I second the suggestion to see if Relicnews will host it as a subdomain on the community server... something like paperstarships.relicnews.com ?? This whole site spawned from there, after all. It's fast, reliable hosting, and many of us are long-time members there anyway.
It's a shame the existing database can't be salvaged... there's a lot of history here.

Is there a particular reason we need to change forums? This one still seems to work pretty well...
