Can anything be done about it? Has anyone e-mailed the people at ztnet?

Since half the page shows, maybe it's the scripts not znet. Or is it like the server with the scripts being down?

I emailed admin@ztnet.com to complain about the problem with MARP. Maybe if more people complained, ztnet might do something to fix the website.

be nice about it... ztnet although sometimes not the most reliable is at least hosting a ton of files for marp of which many should show their gratitude more than complaints... though this is quite some time for being down.

Only "hawk" seems to be running.

What happened to "eagle" and "falcon"?

I seem to remember something like this happening once before. ZTNet went down and when it came back it messed up the scripts somehow. I think Zwaxy or someone had to do something in the end. I could be wrong though.

Chances are this is nothing to do with ZTNet.

given the site was actually down for a couple days...they may have backed up...then restored from it.

perhaps was even just a routine total cleanup thing they do oce or twice a year.

if they restored from a backup, then permissions often get whacked....which would result in the scripts failing to run correctly.

I had a site where the host did a couple changes that resulted in this. some parts were working...others not. I had to go in and just correct the permissions again.

Sounds feasable. Oh well, either way it seems to be back up now.

Zwaxy e-mailed them a second time a couple of days.

But maybe a few hundred more complaints might make them listen. :)

UPDATE: Zwaxy has also e-mailed Atila (Retrogames owner), and I have also e-mailed ZTNet.
