Account Frozen.
The page you are looking for has expended its monthly bandwidth allowance and will be frozen until more is purchased or its bandwidth is reset.

thats the info on sunrays excellent dom 2 page

does anyone know if he hosts it somewhere else or what happens ? would be really be a pity if his site will be gone it was so excellent

almost all needed dominions wisdom on one site .

Well, considering it says "monthly" and it's near the end of the month, I'd expect it to be back up in a few days...

You know, it's this kind of new-age absurdity that really pisses me off. Do these people honestly think that "bandwidth" is something that just magically accumulates? It's not! Instead of serving the page, now the bandwidth is just being USELESSLY WASTED. If they want to limit bandwidth, they should actually limit it to a constant rate, like, say, some X% of the provider's capacity.

I suggest a protest: Everyone interested should repeatedly refresh the "out of bandwidth" page. Write a script to do it! Over and over! Show them what "OUT OF BANDWIDTH" *REALLY* means. Idiots. Out of bandwidth my ***.

its funny that they would advertise their services on such a page.. do they expect someone to actually want that to happen to their own site?

It's a free web hosting outfit. They don't want people who haul down huge amounts of traffic - for instance, free porn.

And pretty much all the outfits that provide free web hosting have a limit on the bandwidth, to #1 induce people to upgrade to a for-pay setup, and #2, limit abuse.

If there's a specific file/doc you're looking for on his site, and cannot wait until August 1, let me know. I have a sizeable chunk of Sunray's stuff sitting on my local HDD.

Wish gives a random hero. Check out this thread, which I found using this forum's SEARCH function (for "wish", 4th entry from the top).

Yes, you can. Type in "ettin mandragora", which is his unit type. Don't type in "hero", because that gets you a random one. He's "the Ettin Mandragora", hence, that's what you wish for. You'll notice how every unit tends to be something to the effect of Bob the Whatever. To get that unit type, wish for whatever. However, if he shares a unit type string, you'll probably get some generic one instead. Don't wish for "Wraith Lord" to get Etimmu. However, there's only one Ettin Mandragora on record, so if you wish for that, you'll get that one.
