you could kinda brush this off as fearmongering but i don't think anyone cares enough about their ffr accounts to think of it as that

Tbh anyone here saying it's no big deal is simply not affected by it and/or doesn't care about anyone else than themself for this matter.

That being said, it costs me nothing to try and get information to figure out possible solutions.

"So you want to make this website more secure and have the owner actually do something or give actual rights to admins ? And you're being pushy about it ? I should make fun of this"

you do you.

What is needed for admins to have full access ? Domain Name ownership ? More ?

My password is 'password' on like 20 online games worth billions of GP and nothing has ever happened in over 20 years.

It's adorable watching you go through the same thing that every person who has maintained the site for the past 10 years has already went through

Is it not possible to call the registrar's help desk and complain that the registrant has been unreachable for a long time, which is problematic due to website security issues ?

a domain registrar does not give a shit unless you're doing something like submitting an atrocious amount of spam, and even then enom probably does not give a shit.

Hmm that wouldn't surprise me indeed. I will still give it a shot anyway, unless admins are willing to do it or have already done it.

After 4 years he still hasn't asked for the password to this account to be changed so he could use it. I doubt much effort goes into thinking about FFR.

Yeah he doesn't give a shit it's no news, but it's probably not impossible to find a way to talk to him

You mean like, people who have what are his most recently known email address, social media accounts and phone number? People with theoretical communications access to Synth have been trying to use that access to actually speak to him for YEARS.

And if you think it's a matter of just like...having somebody who is actually here try to get all the data necessary to host the site somewhere else, that already exists and has for years. The problem is "Every single song in this game was provided by permission from the holders of the rights to FFR and Synthlight" and if we just made flashflashrevolution2.com, even outside concerns about ownership of the term FFR, every single song would have to come down until new permission could be reestablished from every single artist, many of whom no longer produce music/have findable represenation and so as far a I understand how the rights issues work, to stay on the safe side, all those songs would just be lost.

Yes indeed song permission is problematic for hosting somewhere else. Please just don't assume I think there is a trivial fix to this very old problem, I Really don't. However, it can't hurt for me and the community to know (or be reminded of) what has been attempted and what possibilities the staff have, without of course disclosing private information. So I appreciate that you specify what the problems are.

Anyway, once you follow this train of thought long enough you end up at the inevitable question: Is the community of this site worth the security liabilities that reside in it? Would it be better to just pull the plug?
