Strange. They were up and running a month ago...
Ground assault? Orbital bombardment? Sith plague?

Just got on, sorta. Here's the message you get
| Quote: | The Rebel Roleplayers Alliance has suffered a critical blow from the Empire. The RRA database has been disabled beyond repair. Unfortunately, the damage was too severe and it needs to be rebuilt with a stronger infrastructure.
This job is too great and cannot be done by one person. If you would like to help save the RRA and the West End Games Star Wars Roleplaying Game, please email me with the subject of "Save the RRA".

I've noticed many sites related to Star Wars D6 closing their doors over the last few years. I wonder if this is direct malicious intent (corporate harassment to protect intellectual property). I do hope this is not a deepening trend.

Why not try to get this guy into rancoirpit?
I mean, he could transbord his materials here, and maybe someone here has the skills to help him... ...or not?

True, but if he has been targeted by the Empire and is under continued surveilance then having him come here and post his stuff (if that is indeed what caused him trouble) this could cause us more harm then good.... Under the radar is the way I like

No we're just burnt out administratively and taking-requests-ly. It's currently being refurbished under new management.

Well, English is not my mother language, but what is the RRA database? I suspect it has little to do with the RIAA. I have the impression that he had some technical problem or mere bad luck that he defined as "the Empire"... ...or am i completely off-trail?

I'm guessing the RRA is just the abbreviation of the site name, Rebel Roleplayers Alliance.

So my guess is they've had problems with their database and either A) they need money to fix it and the admin doesn't have it or B) they don't have the computer knowledge to do it. Most likely A.

Or C their sever crashed and they lost all the information.
Getting the WEG stats back would be a bit easier, but they had a good deal of fan made material. And I know the guy who ran the site was also looking for some of the members to help him keep it up as he was looking to promote a few folks to Admiral.
