Kind of a shame, last I checked it was getting 4000 to 5000 hits a day. (yes it's minuscule on internet, but hey! it's big for VN!) I can't even login to my wordpress account to retrieve my posts. That blog had over 2 years worth of my precious posts, some of them were a lot of work. Gonna go through google cache to try and restore some posts. wouldn't mind if some1 can help me dig them out too. [23:25] <Aaeru> the death of visualnovelaer kinda hurts [23:25] <Croos_> yeah [23:25] <Aaeru> there's no place to get a project announced anymore (other than 4chan, where they dont care) [23:25] <gerakami> lol its expected [23:25] <Aaeru> Encubed... lol, zalas will laugh at you
Steve Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Welcome back! Its been a silent time without VNaer blog, its the only place I used to read info about VNs. Are you sure you cannot access the content? They should at least let you get the data from there if they are not dicks Well ill help with the cache, ill be saving them in html and adding on my google public drive.
ilegend Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Welcome back! Yeah sad to hear that the blog is snatched away from you.. I'll try to help with the retrieval of as many of your posts as possible..~ How are you feeling?
Steve Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Hm, I can't seem to be able to use the google cache on that site. 404. That’s an error. The requested URL /search?hl=en&safe=off&tbo=d&site=&source=hp&q=cache%3Avisualnovelaer.wordpress.com&oq=cache%3Avisualnovelaer.wordpress.com&gs_l=hp.3...4489.4891.2.5093.2.2.0.0.0.0.68.130.2.2.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.yFHBwt6_fAI was not found on this server. That’s all we know. I thought the command is to put in google line cache:visualnovelaer.wordpress.com
ilegend Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I was attempting to try allinurl:visualnovelaer.wordpress.com or even site:visualnovelaer.wordpress.com then click on the cached link manually.. :/ So far I have a page..
Steve Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I installed addon for chrome that lets you oneclick for cache, seems to work from page 31 and lower, page 32 and further seems to not be cached.
Steve Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 yeah try checking if this is useful: https://drive.google...QzhoMmg4d3JBRm8 (download the whole folder) 3 test pages. Luckily the posts seems to be full on the page list and if it links to some article outside, all works, including images.
Guest Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Hey thx for the tips guys. i can see some of the useful posts i might be able to get back, also found someone who reblogged my posts http://naphop.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/how-to-read-visual-novels-in-japanese.html lucky it's still saved.
Wolfscythe Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 This is what i could find.... http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://visualnovelaer.wordpress.com/ http://web.archive.org/web/20121206070520/http://visualnovelaer.wordpress.com/
Andregate Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Oh, what a shame... that's one of promising blog... Don't feel so depressed, your hard work isn't in vain...
Daeyamati Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 While the loss of your blog is unfortunate, we're glad to have you back and well after being away for so long
Tief Blau Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Hm... Whatever you got hit with, all the google webcache is for the most part gone. Lets see if I can link this without spamming the thread (it's the JAST USA post) -Edit- Ok, so pasting the entire HTML doesn't work... Anyway, MF link to the post as HTML. There are no pictures, but it's the text that matters, right? Link (About 300 kilobytes) -Edit 2- お帰り！
Guest Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 sweet it even saved the comments. yea some of the ones i was looking for aren't there anymore gonna keep trying thx for that
REtransInternational Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Going forward you should have periodic backups of anything you want to keep. The Internet can help but it's not completely reliable either. (Same goes for the forums and everything else.)
Sakimichi Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Thats sad , I thought your blog just moved and you got your stuff backed up I really like how you take time making and designing your posts
meru Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Ugh, that's ridiculous that they won't even let you get your posts back. I hope you can find some way to salvage at least a few posts.. Anyway, glad to have you back!! If you need any help on the non-technical side of things (content, banners, etc) just let me know ^_~
Guest Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Hey meru, i think i'll need a logo to sit at the very top left of the page, (http://visualnovelaer.fuwanovel.net) this is how it looks on http://smashingmagazine.com (see top left) I tried asking Choux but i think she's busy. the one on the site atm is just a temporary one (it's an old banner i made a while back), i was thinking copying those fonts they used in the top banner on this site http://www.thatanimeblog.com/ but I asked Choux and she doesn't know which fonts they are (bcuz she drew the background image only and not the logo)
Chronopolis Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 That's unfortunate, but ultimately not that unexpected. Hope you manage to get your data back :/.
Down Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 See? This is why necroposting is bad. I almost had a heart attack seeing a post by Aaeru showing up in new content. (That issue was solved loooooong ago so I'm locking)
