Has anybody heard from Cyclone?

Different55 · Before February 2015

Are we sure he's even still on the planet at this point? Forumify could have been brought back in a spare afternoon of work, and it's still just sitting there reassuring nobody.

Cyclone or Meredith · Before February 2015

I already called it not being revived.

He just did it so people would not come to this forum.

XxAtillaxX · Before February 2015

He's still alive, but he -- like many other staff -- doesn't care enough to prioritize things related to Everybody Edits.

Zumza · Before February 2015

EveryBody Edits? Wats so important at it to prioritize? It's only a kids game! And it's finished... What you want more from it?

It's more than a kids' game. Really, there are not many kids who play (excluding me), and most are teenagers/adults. Despite the colorful feel, this game contains blood (see vampire smiley and Halloween 2011 block), and it allows you to make something even bloodier or nastier than that. The game is as childish as you make it, but it was made by adults and always will be.

Why doesn't he want us to come here?

He dislikes the fact we had the botheration, effort and funds to execute a task which revived the forum.

I think he's more disgruntled by security concerns, which is perfectly legitimate.
However, I question why he didn't put security at his highest priority to begin with, when creating Forumify.

Notice how admins and mods are talking here.
This is a discussion among them.
They are the pro haxers

Tako · Before February 2015

I've heard through the grapevine that it's not coming back. And even if it does, he's lost his userbase. This forum is a general improvement -- run by people who genuinely want it to be useful. I think Cyclone was running ee.forumify apathetically (if at all).

What happened to the original forums in the first place? I remember KOTO's contest going really good then boom... nothing...

His server was suspended due to misuse of the system.

Different55 · Before February 2015

What kind of misuse did they find?

I believe it was just email spam being alerted due to all of the spambot registrations.
Too many confirmation emails isn't a good thing.

Different55 · Before February 2015

That's it? He got punished (like he cared, anyway ) for being a victim?

Zumza · Before February 2015

Actually now is not suspended, it's running!
It's says that he will take shortly wats the scope of lie?

Different55 · Before February 2015

It's said that the old forums will be shortly returning for about as long as these new forums have been up.

Zumza · Before February 2015

I know that... But why should say that if he had abandon us. That rumors and any type of this are in contradiction with facts.

Cyclone probably barley remembers the forums.
And off topic, but what happened to all of those links that said Everybodyedits, Beta Everybodyedits, Blog, Wiki, and all that stuff?

The message contradicts itself. Months are not short. Like I said in the first post, he could have had the forums back up and running in a few hours of an afternoon if he actually cared.

Anch · Before February 2015

Is it possible that he didn't know how? Or is just cause you guys are pro haxors and think bringing up a dead forum is easy?

Different55 · Before February 2015

Someone who has the brains in his head to set up a system to allow users to automatically create new fluxbb forums has the brains in their head to restore all of those in an afternoon. Just one of those forums shouldn't take longer than a few hours tops.

Anch · Before February 2015

It's probably cause I have no idea what your saying.
Probably easy when you know how to do it.

Different55 · Before February 2015

tl;dr:

Cyclone knows how and has plenty of time to do it, he just doesn't care. It's possible he has some other reason but I don't it since I think I've seen him explicitly say that he doesn't care somewhere3.
