It will probably be back tomorrow, as tomorrow is a working day.

I'm so unhappy i think i'm going to pull my hair out

[Xenon]

Hey dude, try reading all the messages posted within the last 2 days.

[Jman]

I think that he is gone even on like day 1.

[Xenon]

I didn't understand that.

[Jman]

Like he will never come back to PC, even after like day one.

[Xenon]

Yes, even though you could have put that a much easier way.

[Jman]

Well, I'm sry.

[Xenon]

I forgive you...

[Jman]

You better.

[Xenon]

And, what if I didn't?

Hi,
since there's probably no official forum backup, I decided to make a website including all important topics saved from search engines' caches.

The website's URL is http://www.raymanzone.wz.cz

If there are any topics you want to save, post their titles here and I'll try to upload them. If there are some topics on your hard drives, feel free to upload them and post the links here.

This is getting rather funny. No official forum backup?

[You suck]

The KRZK rock We rock And this RaymanZone archive is pathetic

[Reese Riverson]

So, Ubisoft lied about them backing up the forum twice a day?

[Ogre]

Stop hurting us, please.

I do not see what is pathetic in this archive, pok2 has had a very good idea. I think he should also archive topics from the old RZ, since some of them can be found with the Wayback machine

[Xenon]

It's odd how the forums haven't been restored... We have now had 2 working days since the hack and nothing's happened.

And Hunchman, only the board index and the forums can be viewed with the WB Machine.

Alright, so here's the official news:

The forums aren't going to be revived.

Now, this might seem disconcerting at first, but ironically the mods, admins, and many members are pretty happy about it, considering we'll be able to start anew and be fresh. The topics will be new, relevant, and now that the forums are cleared out, the forums will be around 10x faster. Perfect timing for the release of RRR in just a few months.

So thank you, those of you who hoped to bring us down. Because of your "clever idea" in hacking a mod's account, you've revived the forum, brought back other old members who are returning because of the clean slate, cleared out the forums to make everything faster and convenient for the new members to come, and above all, this incident has has only brought the community closer together.

What you meant for bad has been dramatically changed into something very good. Your poor attempts mean absolutely nothing. And now that you seem connected to ARZO thanks to you_suck's post, we can honestly say that your reason for doing this were utterly pathetic and frankly, we don't even care anymore.

So get over it. You won't be remembered for taking an innocent forum like RZ down. You won't feel good for bringing "destruction." Because, in all reality, you did the opposite. Congratulations.

You wanted to be treated fairly, but these kind of attitudes are going to give you nothing of the sort.

If you think topics make up a community like RZ, you're wrong. It's the users. And relationships made through these boards stretch much further than a couple of posts. Deleting the topics essentially means nothing to us. Because we're bigger than that. We don't depend on a few words to create the strong community that we are. So for you to think you've won by deleting an entire board is twisted and wrong. You've failed.

And for those wondering, no, Ubi did not lie when they said the forums are backed up twice a day, but retrieving the backups are very difficult, and a clean slate seemed so much easier and efficient.

[Xenon]

Wow, more news. But it seems a shame to have all those old posts (some by old members) gone.

[Hunchman801]

It looks like the KRZK have not disturbed RZ moderators; only spammy members crying about their postcount are unhappy.
About the archive, I was able to find several topics with the WayBack Machine
