Places to discuss/refind lost media games?

[Ondrashek06]

There's a web game that I miss dearly which shut down quite a while ago and I don't know if anyone has the files or anything for it to make it possible to rehost it one day.
The owner then sold the game in question and a new version under new ownership popped up, but IMO it's inferior and no longers exists as a game but rather a vehicle to push their NFT scam.

Where's a place I can post in hopes that someone still has archived files for it? There's the subreddit r/lostmedia but I'm permanently banned from Reddit for something I did 2 years ago, so that's not an option.

You could look on the Lost Media Wiki, there's a dedicated forum section to discuss lost media.

“Not an option” is BS. You’re just being lazy. Email addresses are free, so you can always make a new account. Even if you were IP banned (which is rare and usually VERY deserving), VPNs are common as well.

Websites that use Cloudflare for example have strict protections against using VPNs, especially also with temp e-mail addresses.

Regardless, an IP ban is pretty rare. I dunno what is considered a “temp” email, because every single web page I use (that isn’t for work) uses a hotmail, yahoo, or gmail address. Every one. All free addresses.

A "temporary" e-mail address is a disposable one that doesn't require registration to own it.

I'm not technically "IP banned", but Reddit has bots that detect ban evasion and autoban accounts related to previously banned ones.

I have no idea how they managed to do it, but they did sniff out an account that I made without an email and on a completely different network and device.

Buy a cheap phone on a new 4G plan and never connect it to wifi, and only use reddit through that, always in a browser in private browsing mode. There's absolutely no way they will detect you. And stop breaking the cardinal rules of Reddit, never comment on trans related things, etc.

I never even commented on those, my cause of ban was getting angry at my comments getting immediately removed upon posting. What's ironic is that they got approved after, but my post lashing out was reported and it turned into a permanent ban.
