Spirits of the Departed - A memorial to what once was www.rovl.org/vi

RIP WWW.ROVL.ORG/VI
2003 - 2013

A long, long time ago
I can still remember how those threads used to make me smile
And I knew if I had the guts that I could make those people post, and...
Maybe they'd be happy for a while
But August made me shiver, with every reply I'd deliver
Beloved site almost dead - I couldn't make one more thread
I can't remember if I cried when I read about Xhavek Mokorai
Something touched me deep inside the day the VI died

So, bye bye good old VI
Made an account, took a headcount, but the bilge it was dry
Them good ol' beasts were drinking whiskey and rye, singing...
This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Did you write in the Thoroughfare and do you have faith in the Ministers?
Don't spam! It's a rule!
Now, do you believe in post etiquette? Could an admin, please, warn this troll
And can you teach me how to write that good?
Well, I know you're writing a book, 'cause I saw the thread in advertisements
I thought it was great - Ohh, don't give up for good!
I was better then ever before, but it seemed the VI's fate was, on the fence
I knew I was out of luck the day the VI died

So, bye bye good old VI
Made an account, took a headcount, but the bilge it was dry
Them good ol' beasts were drinking whiskey and rye, singing...
This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Now, for TEN years we've been on our own and the bugs grow fat on the .php s, but...
That's not how it used to be
Able to keep the site online, a bug here and there but, running fine.
T'was a simple truth, nobody had the time
Oh, and while Retto was nowere to be found the bugs went and took the site down
The Bilge threads were adjourned - no reply was returned
And, while the admins tried to get it back, some thought, maybe it was a hack, and...
We shared hope on the Skype chat, the day, the VI died

So, bye bye good old VI
Made an account, took a headcount, but the bilge it was dry
Them good ol' beasts were drinking whiskey and rye, singing...
This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

So, bye bye good old VI
Made an account, took a headcount, but the bilge it was dry
Them good ol' beasts were drinking whiskey and rye, singing...
This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

As the semi-president of the Democratic People's Republic of Spammania I hereby declare this pity party open.

[Wordsarecool]

Oh man they're shutting that down?

Site collapsed.

[Krowdon]

What does that mean.

[Wordsarecool]

What does that mean.

It means the index.php file stopped working and the whole website died. Literally and figuratively.

[Krowdon]

Maybe they can all come here. :D

[Wordsarecool]

Well nevermind. After 3 days the site came back up.

[Camaclue]

NO
THE SITE IS DEAD AND EVERYONE WILL COME TO SPA
AND SPA WILL GROW AND PROSPER

[Wordsarecool]

NO.

[Sharptooh]

YES

[The Lady Shael]

Wow, I thought it was actually dead and I went to go check.

Glad to see you guys are back up, but of course without a coder to maintain, it really is only a matter of time... :/

Actually I just logged in and read the forums, looks like Retto's looking for a new host for you guys.

[The Lady Shael]

How is your character still alive? Looks like the bubonic plague with some TB thrown in for good measure

[Durza]

So many boils
