Srlsy, websites going down and up again happens daily. This one is partly online with the old design, so it seems either beeing dns trouble or something broke what will be fixed soon.

i jokingly said Sky were DDOSing them but who knows, there was a troll on this site posing as Sky3DSTeam. the user was banned.. But i doubt its anything this serious.

i'd like to think someone at Gateway HQ said "lets take the site offline and laugh at all the reactions on GBATemp forums" :P

Glad I wasn't the only person to see that. Although the Photoshop job is rather outstanding.
I reported it ! :P Saying that their logo was stolen by a group of terrorist selling piracy devices as a way to gather money for their terrorist act.

Fully down for me. YUP

Their servers HDD failed.

Replacement ia being installed by their hosting company and then backups will be restored.

Server should be restored fully within 24 hours, most likely much less.

    Sure is... and poor devs get hit with the charge backs

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Exactly.
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Thor from "Pirate Software" said its just better to pirate the game than buy from a keyshop if you care about the devs
    +2
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    devs don't get hit with the chargebacks, the keys are free to generate
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    at least on steam
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Except he said the DEVS get hits with the chargeback cost
    +1
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    since the key gets bought with a stolen credit card
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    there's nothing to charge back because the keys don't cost them money to generate in the first place
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If the game has a crack sure
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most these crack sites have dead links anymore or the crack don't even work
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    @The Real Jdbye What don't you get? If someone use a stolen creditcard. Then sell said key on G2A. If I the dev sold the game key, I will get the charge back cost. That's how it works, it doesn't matter if I generate 300 keys if 300 of them are bought with stolen credit cards. I never said it was on Steam, but its the dev that gets hit. There is a ton of stories out there if you google it.
