How bout "next up: relevant info regarding the site's possible return"

I have not been following this anywhere but here. UG was where I also got my MAME sets and was wondering if anyone had any info on the site's return?

I don't use IRC, but I tried it anyway and the link does nothing if put into a browser, one of my irc chrome extensions or in ApexDC++. Plus the original link from the OP does not work anymore.

I was hoping someone who used IRC could update us, since I think the IRC does not work anymore.

The IRC server for UG went offline. Currently the unofficial IRC server is now:

#UG on irc.esper.net

I don't have any new news except for this.

Agreed. It's the last nail in my personal torrenting as well. Having to build up a ratio again for the eventual downfall of whatever closed community just to lose it all is defeating. Usenet it bust for me now.
