    Not really a question on the Tainted Ideals itself but does anyone know why Beast's Lair is down? The author has a pretty big topic on there regarding Tainted Ideals but I haven't been able to get on it for a couple days. Did the site get shut down or hacked or something like that?

    To the best of my knowledge, multiple people have been unable to access the site. BL has recently had some server issues as well. I assume the site was taken down for maintenance, but that's just my best guess. I rather doubt we'll find out anything until the site is back online.

    Beast's Lair is hosted on the oreno.imouto.org server. I understand the hosting is provided for free by the owner. He's had a hardware failure recently.

    You can get more granulated updates from the Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/oreno_imouto

    If you like Beast's Lair, then consider donating to the host. Servers and bandwidth aren't free.

    edit: I removed the active links to oreno.imouto.org because that site will be extremely NSFW when it's back up and running.

    Well, that sucks. Still, nice to know it'll be back up soon. Thanks Yak.

    (Didn't know you had an account here Hymn; cool to know.)

    split and moved. Easier to just keep the thread about the story and use this one for the site discussion. D:

    This is definitely necromancy, but it seems preferable to making a new thread.

    Anyway, the website seems to be down again, and according to isitdownrightnow.com, it isn't just me. Does anyone know what's going on?

    I checked and it's up again. Probably some maintenance issues.
