Any news about Warseer?
« on: August 9, 2016, 08:11:09 AM »
Hi all,

I would be interested in anything new about the other 40k site I frequent.
AKA "Will warseer return?"
sure you have an opinion,
but my swordplay is better than your´s

Take my advice, I never use it.

I think that the answer to that is that nobody really knows.  Even WarSeer's administrator didn't know what would happen, so all that you're going to see posted here or anywhere else is conjecture until Wintermute posts anything more definitive somewhere.

It was hacked and the site went down as a consequence.

It's the second major outage for WarSeer in a relatively short space of time, so it's even worse than it would normally have been too in terms of its impact.

I used to rely on Warseer for leaks and rumors but random French and German websites have taken over that role when I don't get it from the goons.

I would presume the hacking damage to their archives and site architecture is major if they don't simply bounce back from a backup, that's a shame.

The latest news is that it is becoming increasingly likely that WarSeer will not return.  This is according to one of the staff members there.

Even thou it greatly pains me to read this,
thanks for the information.
When Eldar online changed and I spread out more into other armies I found Warseer to be mostly along the lines I liked.
Much speculation and extensive "discussion" about rumours or even rumourmongering.
Besides that there was the most brilliant projects section I found so far.

I sure hope they will be back, but could understand if they gave up.
sure you have an opinion,
but my swordplay is better than your´s

Take my advice, I never use it.

It looks like Warseer will still be back.
Today I was able to access the site and it looks like the basic structure is working still under repair. BUT there is hope!! ;D

I noticed that too.  It's good news for them if they can repair it.  How much has been lost will be the main cause for concern.  We'll just have to wait and see :).

Hi all,

Sorry to accidentally necro this thread, but WarSeer is very much alive (and I've noticed that a few people in this thread have noticed too)!

WarSeer

I wanted to thank people for their support whilst we were down. We were indeed hacked and it took some work to get things back. Myself and Teh Real New Girl have taken ownership of the site and are very much engaged in giving it a new lease of life. WarSeer deserves nothing less.

Hope to see you all around there soon. I know I'll be popping in here from time to time.

Thanks,

blackcherry
