As many people have noticed, www.shadowrunrpg.com is currently redirecting to Fanpro Germany's e-store.
As of a couple of days prior to Gencon, the site has been moved to www.shadowrun4.com. This post will be updated as things change. Also, remember to check CatalystGameLabs.com for more tasty SR and CBT information. |

D'oh! I didn't even notice when I checked after his post. I thought he was saying that something was wrong with the site, but the link worked for me.
Ergo, no problem! :silly: edit: fixed the original post |

I suspect that with the change from FanPro to Catalyst that a registrar change on the domain has been bungled somehow. I'm still curious what's going on. And even more curious as to how it's even possible that no explanation has been forthcoming from the usual in-the-know sources. Did I miss a sticky somewhere? Surely someone knows what's going on. =)

IIRC, as Adam pointed out, the domains belong to FanPro Germany.
Since they don't produce SR anymore, they don't have any incentive to host the english website for it. Or, in other words... the domains are held hostage, most likely until the german licence issue is resolved. |

No. [Well, yes, but it's also in my hands.]
Solutions are being worked on, but there's nothing I can say to you guys that will make it resolve faster. |

Perhaps I'm just a simpleton but in the meantime why can't we put the site back up on a different domain and update everywhere to point to the new URL, then when the old URL is restored the new URL simply becomes an alias?
That would take about an hour.... right? |

As long as you don't actually need to download anything, you can always use the last backup of the site, courtesy of the Wayback Machine. :)

Wow. That would be the first site I know that has its downloads mirrored by archive.

No. It's a little more complex than that. |

Then I'm *assuming* that it must be legal issues.
