RPGMaker.net was sold today. The price, will not extreme, was high enough to convince me of the sincerity of the new owner’s intent to re-launch the site in a worthy manner.
Thus ends the final chapter in a misadventure that began with the ill-fated RPGEngine project, involved a hugely successful website that became unfundable after the dot-com collapse, and (largely) ended with the collapse of said website and me having incurred a debt that took two years to pay off. I wish the new owner the best of luck in the grand re-launch, which I assume will occur shortly after the transfer goes through.
I posted this here because many here were also involved in RPGMaker.net.
Dragon Destiny II (and all my tuts and articles) are hosted on my private website at http://www.rastblackwing.com (which is technically a subsite of RPGC… hmm… rpgmaker shrine anyone? :D), which is in need of a redesign when I get the chance (I’ve got too much in the toc table…)
