Site is down again after someone from US logged in and deleted everything.

if you have tried to login to the ftp with previous credentials that might have banned you. join us on irc #emuxtras on efnet if that has happened.

RessurectionX is the one who nuked our site a few days ago...
deleting everything including our FTP information,
(which housed many great resources and new things being worked on )
He openly admitted it ....
The monster carelessly may have destroyed far more than he ever created, in one fell swoop!
Luckily, we had backups of 99% of our work
Know, that the Xtras are safe and exciting new updates are coming everyone's way in the near future!

Maybe this thread will make RX realize the size was/is about more than "his" project, in fact it has very little to do with "his" project; hence why the name changed to EmuXtras in the first place. We are trying to keep the scene alive and well with a thriving community.

The work he did (though it has been mentioned many times isn't on a par with what coders/porters do), is still a large part of Rx's life and something he felt proud of. He believes that this was taken from him and no matter what we tell him, he will not see that this isn't the case.
Sometimes we need to see things from the other persons perspective and how strongly they feel about something. From the countless comments that Rx has written, he obviously has real life issues that effects his behaviour. Although this does not excuse him for what he has done, I feel that this should be remembered.
I hope my comments do not anger any of my fellow comrades
but I felt so strongly that I needed to say how I felt about this sorry mess. I have a final thought... Yes, what the coders/porters do is great and we would not enjoy our emulation without them. However, those that do not have the aptitude to code, does not make their contribution any less valid. They also put in many hours of their free time to help the community in whatever way they are able to, and their efforts should not be so quickly disregarded.

The difference here is... all we ever did was give him a home to host his work. We never changed it, deleted it, or anything. His time spent building the RX sets was preserved because of us running the website. Otherwise it would have died with the RX thread here, and the torrents that all died. We used our free time to build a website that he attempted to delete.
He didn't care about all the people that put time into the site, whether on the coding side, maintaining it, paying for it, uploading useful files to the FTP. He didn't care about anyone but himself.
The issue has always been that the name of the site, which he doesn't own, changed to something other than his name.
He said he did it because we got his thread closed here? I don't see any Admins of EmuXtras posting in that thread asking for it to be closed. Just because someone is a member of EmuXtras (Almost 3000 people are!) doesn't mean they have anything to do with the actual ownership of the site.
Nobody from our side ever said what he did wasn't an awesome accomplishment. In fact, everyone running the site was a former team member of his who helped build it all. I think he has been carrying on so long with this he doesn't even know why he is mad, other than to be mad.
In closing, I think RX and BP both need to read this and get help:

Well then something else is wrong then. I'm getting server time out's no matter the browser I use.
Whatever changed on the site is affecting some people reaching.
This dickhead has really nerfed things up for people who enjoy emuextra's and the people that put an awful lot of work into the site.
Spoilt baby comes to mind.
Did you try to access the FTP? The site will ban your IP if you do, because that username/password doesn't exist anymore. If that is the case let Wimpy know so he can get it unbanned.

it's unfortunete that this happened. resx helped build a fine foundation that became xtra's. but what he did is just really messed up.
i noticed that many xtra's team members have done their best to move along and make peace. but some people just don't want that. even when you make a public apology (hint hint). it's very exhausting especially for those of us who just want to make the xbox more fun and awesomer than before.
too much drama... too much drama
[back to normal sarcasm/sillyness]
we all need to move on and remember the reason we enjoy working on the xbox in our various abilities with these very important words...
"All your base are belong to us"
indeed...
Post by: wimpyRBX on November 10, 2011, 03:54:00 PM
1) join our channel on efnet and let us know.
2) pm me here with your IP so i can unban.

Just a server update. We're waiting for a DNS update so some might get on some might not yet.
It will be resolved in 24h for everyone depending on ISP cache.

DNS / IP change took a bit longer than it was supposed to. We're working on a fix for those who still cannot access the site.
Yeah, I'm still having issues with accessing the site at this moment. Thanks
Post by: wimpyRBX on February 29, 2012, 03:27:00 PM
one temp. solution is to edit the hosts file in windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
and add:
176.9.179.193 emuxtras.net
176.9.179.193 www.emuxtras.net
however that is a temp fix and can be removed once the site is synced on dns throughout the world.
