Neoitems..MIA?

Leads you to some wierd design heaven website. Whatever happened to Neoitems? They were working fine a week ago, and after the past couple of days totally inaccessable, and now completely gone?

I loved using neoitems.

EDIT: Now it gives you a down for maintenance message, instead of the design heaven one.

Actually, I didn't. I wonder what happened to them? It was a very useful site.

Clicking the link and typing in the address manually both bring me to the "maintenance" page.

Eh, I hope it'll be back soon. Yesterday when I went there to search for an item and I got a 404 Error.

there was a little note up there a couple of days ago saying that they were going to be getting a new server, i think. (nod)

[Zingbad]

First thing I thought was maybe they were hacked just like IBD was.

[anaslile]

good to know they'll be back, I found out today after I went to try and find out what those new knitting kits are called as I HAVE to have them.

[cpvr]

Heh Dont worry. It`ll be back up soon. Im sure.

[xjox]

Hopefully theyre not down for too long, I never realised how much I rely on that site until now!

Hopefully, NeoItems is temporarily out of action, but it seems that Neo Commentary is gone for good. I have tried to access it for about a week now and cannot. I really liked that site. It had a lot of really great articles analyzing/discussing the new things happening with Neopets. And, had been nicely archived so you could look at the things that happened in the past and get a user's perspective about it--which could be much different from the ever-so-cheery perspective from the Neopets staff.

If it is a matter of funding with these Neofan sites, I really wish that they would make a plea to the people who use these sites. Honestly, I wouldn't mind plunking down 5 or 10 dollars to keep a site going--and I imagine others would feel the same way. In this day and age, $5 is two Starbucks coffees. Frankly, I can do without the caffeine buzz if it means keeping a site going for awhile, you know?

And if it is a legal thing (meaning Neopets having a problem with fansites using its copyrighted name, etc.), Neopets should realize that a lot of people keep playing Neopets because of the fansites. So they shoud realize that it is important that the fansites stay in business. Personally, I would have quit Neo a long time ago if I hadn't found PPT and Neoitems.

If anyone has info on Neo Commentary, please let me know. Being a person who loves to write and who loves to write about Neo, naturally you can correctly assume that I loved that site!
