I have had webspace at home.off-road.com since about 1994 and all of a sudden it's gone...no longer exists. I emailed ORC but guaranteed I will never hear back. All of my technical write-ups are there and all of my trip reports and photos, from my 87 truck, 94 truck and now the 4runner--everything I have ever posted has been reduced to a big red X. Anyone know what's up with ORC? :(

i just went to off-road.com and it seems to still exist... maybe one of their servers is down for maintenance?

Let's hope, it has been that way for a few days now. Oh and if it seems like I'm whining, I AM!

I have been surprised you still have that storage account. Space that like usually costs money and I heard the site was sold.

I used to lurk on ORC when I was 16 or 17. I didn't even have a real email address (they wouldn't accept any free email accounts) at that age so I was never able to register. I think that I'm 4x4mike over there too but haven't logged on in years.

I just had a little brain fart and remember reading something on PBB regarding this. Doesn't explain why the site is still running if it was planned to be shut down.
