My site is ending !!

Post by Buster »

Hi everyone,

I've got a big announcement to make. Gatherstone - Buster's Unreal Gold Site will be shut down very soon.

It would've been 5 years old this coming Midsummer's Eve.

The reason being is I'm moving again. Actually, I've already moved. I'm now living on Vancouver Island on an artist's colony. My lady and I have a "cabin" in the trees on the edge of a hill overlooking a gorgeous valley, with a mountain on the other side.

At night there are 3 light bulbs in the general area. That's it.

Needless to say, my Shaw service will be way too exspensive just to keep my website going. But I will continue to be online using Telus DSL, so I will continue being a Global Moderator here at OldUnreal. Of course. You can take this Unreal freak out of the city, but you can't take Unreal out of my bones !!

LoL

I hope that one of the admins here, like Pitbull or Diehard, can archive my site for me. Please (hint hint).

That's it for now. I gotta get back to chopping wood for the stove. It gets a wee bit chilly at night.

If it can be saved the way it is that'd be fantastic. Most of the downloadable stuff is hyper-linked to Diehard's site, but I do host alot of the editor tools, those little custom scripts, my maps and stuff, all of the desktop wallpapers, and all of the UT converts by Dik.

I'd be a shame if that stuff was lost. In fact, I think my site is the only place to find a few of Dik's maps. I just don't want a few of the neat tidbits I've collected for the community to be lost. That's my main concern. Anything beyond that is a bonus. Thanks !!

Wow, that reminds me of:
I always wanted to be... A lumberjack! Leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Colombia! The Larch! The Scots Pine!
I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK,
I sleep all night and I work all day!
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch,
I go to the lavatory!
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
And have buttered scones for tea!

I am getting a kilt .. LoL And I'm not Scottish. Just feeling a little Macbeth .. LoL !!

Hey Beest. I will email you a few pics of the homestead. It's very nice. Once I can get them up somewhere I will post them for all to see.

And Smirftsch .. It'd be an honor to have Gatherstone on here. I'm touched by the offer, Bro. You too, Hyper. Very nice of you both.

I'm sorta in transition, so I don't have my PC yet. I don't have access to all the files on my site, yet.

But as far as I know, the site is still up. For now.

Looks very nice, kinda like the place where I live but 10 years ago... Now here is much more traffic, they destroyed a small forest due to some god damn buildings and it sucks... I'd wish if the good old times were back...

Looks a lot like the countryside here, except that we have less swans and lakes usually don't have docks.
