Kristens Board is suspended again

[rdodger]

This is odd. Last fall they removed three entire sections of the board in order to keep their hosting arrangement in place.
I'm not sure what tripped the trigger this time.

Yeah. I thought they were gone for good, then, bam back up but missing all my favorite author/stories or at least I couldn't find them.
We'll see if it pops up again.

Confirmed suspended. I wonder what stops them from just switching hosts.

 

[rdodger]

They've got a large website. And I suspect all of the hosts who can handle them are large enough to have similar content concerns. Assuming it was a content issue this time.

Is this an ASSTR thing?

It must be, ASSTR.xyz is down again

 

[rdodger]

Shouldn't be related unless xyz is on the same host.
Anyway Kristen's is back up tonight. No announcement posted on what happened.

Kirsten's Archive has been part of ASSTR for many decades. It used to be ASSTR.org, but that collapsed a few years ago and resurrected as ASSTR.xyz
I just took a look at kristen-archives.xyz - good gawd it's AWFUL.

It used to be the very best part of ASSTR, now it looks as bad if not worse than ASSTR at its worst. How do you find anything in there? There's no division by category, it's just a flat page full of story names. Not a tag in sight.

Embarrassing.
