Content loss is going to hurt us again though. Last time we have a major melt down of Fyrons Host, he lost a years worth of info.

Must be backed up on 12 servers all around the world (including secret orbital data havens) every hour, encrypted and immediately burned to DVDs. That's what I call "fault-tolerant system".

I have found evidence Kwok is indeed behind the destruction of SpaceEmpires.net. I have found the motive!

From his website:

Quote:
28 February 2005:
Captain Kwok's Space Empires Depot has been the first site uploaded to my new domain here at www.captainkwok.net. Make sure you update your bookmarks and links! Look for the Space Food Empires website to make the hop over shortly. It's exciting because I now have more space and bandwidth so I can add some downloads and more content. Look out Spaceempires.net because your title as #1 in all of space empires is nearing the end!
Then 5 days later, SE.net goes offline! I'm on to you Kwok!

Encryption means you not only need the data, you also need the key.

Burning it plaintext onto the lunar regolith with a Giant DVD laser, on the other hand...

Ahh But Kwok has openly denied this attack

Quote:
News Report on Captainkwok.net:
In an unrelated story, Imperator Fyron's Spaceempires.net website remains down. The reason is unknown, although some might think that Captain Kwok of the Space Empires Depot has sabotaged the site in a long running one-sided imagined rivalry. This is false.

Maybe Kwok got a secret third party involved. He seems to smart and devious to go for a direct strike

(Meant in the Nicest possible way Cap'n )

Word around the Spaceport is that Fyron is using his Resource Reclamation Plant to recover his site - perhaps it might return shortly?

The first parts of a fixed SpaceEmpires.net are peeking through www.spaceempires.net
