I disagree. Moddb has a significant amount of traffic. Why not instead of deleting the section, update it with more sell-able content that reflects Spring progress?

Spring currently has 2 pages:
Spring PC game
Spring engine

Obviously the latter is more accurate and update, so the former should probably be deleted.

Because it seems that did not work in the last 2 years.

So maybe some official could contact modDB to remove the site if nobody with the account password shows up in the next days?

My Spring always crash??? It always crash at finalizing, is because i turn on other program or my graphic card can't handle it? My graphic card in ATi Mobility Radeon 2400. Before that I had no problem playing the game at all, but now it display Spring Unhandle crash.

If you email the support team they might be able to allow for a merge of the 2 into the engine section to get rid of spring the game. They're pretty friendly, but you have to prove you have permission.

Or swift could relinquish control so I can do all this shit and maintain it. He is still around here he just for whatever reason has ignored my pms and if he cannot be here enough to keep that site up to date, because he hasn't, he should let me handle it.

Speaking of which Neddie/Black Liger etc STILL haven't handed control of the spring facebook group to me or anyone else on there who are active. The facebook group is in a similar state with no active administrators.

I thought BL was going to do that. Well, I hate Facebook, but I suppose I can log on and fix this.
