Where have you been? They removed that months ago.

Why?

I bet some idiot thought it was a rom, and reported it. And the CNET people, without checking, deleted it. Well, when 1.92 is released, someone should put it up there..;P

I'm willing to bet they simply dropped it over time, and no one here at AG as been the least bit concerned with having it put back up.

That's not it at all.

I was digging through some old posts, and I read a thread Warlord had posted that said the new traffic coming to AGN because of CNET was bringing in gigs and gigs of bandwidth usage. I don't think AGN could handle that right now. When I find the thread, I'll post a link to it.

So basically ZC isn't out there because AGN couldn't handle it? Great... Let's hope that A: that's not the case and B: they fix it if it is.

Ah, found it.

Ok... At what point does war Lord say anything about having it removed from Cnet?

Well, if it was taking up that much bandwidth, that's what I infer happened. I don't really know. Whatever happened, I don't think AGN could handle another surge of new people, nor could ZCN - it's forum is slower than AGN, at least for me.
