Good luck, folks!

I've switched to Linux. The RPG Toolkit is no longer an option for me. So I would support any efforts to turn MS into a general indie gaming site, and help in whatever way I can.

Though the main thing is the actual site, not the forums. That can be handled within days of the changeover.
You can send the ftp however you wish, email, pm etc.
Likin your comic btw.

I'm sure Spyder will approve, though I'll contact him first before making any major changes to the site. Unfortunately I've got a bit too much going on right now to help with coding or site design, but what I can do is provide you with perhaps a test subdomain (like newsite.mysticsoftware.com) that will eventually become the new site for you guys to play around with, provided you are able to come up with something. Spyder's only stipulation when handing over the site for me to host was to keep all the services up (i.e. game downloads, forums), so as long as you intend to keep that, we should be good.
As far as forums go, I've been using Simple Machines on other websites and have had no trouble with spambots on them due to their multiple plugins and stuff against that. (I would imagine an upgraded PHPBB3 would offer better protection as well.) If you want to try to migrate the data base to either a current PHPBB3 or Simple Machines, AlienDude, I suppose I can give you access to take a look. My main concern of course would be keeping the DAL RP intact. ;)
Let me know what you folks think!
