Old news can be found here.

I am still a little confused about some things. It seems to me that the reason DriverMadness.net has been up and down and big then small year after year has all been directly related to hosting issues. It seems like that is over with now. So, does that mean we can have back all the stuff madness used to put up and take down and put up and take back down, etc.?

I am referring to the old stuff:
the official Driver website mirrors
DriverImages and the other ones (DPL-List, Girls—I mean, Guns—in the Trunk, etc.)
the downloads database (I know, this one has been discussed before. I would just like to have a final word on the matter, if you do not mind me asking this question again, so we know exactly where we are starting from and what must be scrounged up.)

Is this stuff just plain gone? Are you already working at restoring aspects of the former network and main website, or are you starting from scratch except for what exists in this forum? Is madness participating with you on the current developments, or are you on your own except for the technical support you sometimes mention receiving from madness?

I ask about what stuff may be saved somewhere because one time—like on other occasions before a hosting relocation took place—madness wrote of some content being eliminated, "This has to be removed in order to reduce hosting costs, if it feels necessary I'll make my own backup of everything uploaded ready to restore in the future if I ever decided to spend more on hosting again." That seems to have been written about the time my last donation to this place ran out. Well, we have decided to spend whatever is necessary from this time forward, so what about it, did he save that stuff?

I know madness changed his mind a lot of times about what he thought was important to offer and what was not, and he made a lot of references to moving content from here and hosted affiliates to some DriverWiki that never really succeeded. Most of that seemed influenced by what he was capable of doing. Is DriverMadness.net currently capable of doing whatever it wants to, both in terms of financial resources and administrative discretion?

Is building up a full-spectrum downloads database here in addition to DriverMods on the agenda? I would like to see something to that effect take place.

Thank you.

Okay, boss. Thank you for the reply. Good luck with the development of the next Driver Madness Network. I hope things will turn out the way you will like them to.
