Why can't I access "Torque Game Builder" forum any more?

Hi,

I can't access the "Torque Game Builder" forum any more. I get the message:

Access Restricted
This is a private forum. Return to the previous page.

I have always been able to access it until today and I still get mails with posts made in my forum threads.

I noticed this earlier today; I'm assuming it has something to do with the MIT T2D release, since I know the forums were working yesterday. Maybe they're in the middle of trying to migrate old posts or something? I certainly hope that they don't just go away forever; the forums have been invaluable sources of information for me.

Yes, I'm in the middle of a project and need this forum badly :)

We where just discussing how we could save all the information in TDN and forum posts.

I've been using all the cached pages in Google. It's a pain, since I can't follow links, but it's better than nothing.

I can access TDN, but cached Google pages is good but not good enough :P
I hope they will fix this soon...

Sorry Max. I was trying to manipulate the forums so that the new Torque 2D Beginner/Pro forums show instead of the TGB one. Give it a try now.

Relocated the thread to the TGB forum. Are you still able to see this thread? If not, e-mail me: michaelp AT garagegames DOT com.

@Michael Can you please have a look at this thread:
http://www.garagegames.com/community/forums/viewthread/132982

We are discussing on what's going to happen to TDN and the old TGB forums. We are looking into the possibility to maybe import the TDN and forum posts to a new Wiki.

[EDIT]
Ohh, I saw that you already had responded and things are moving. However it seems a little bit unclear if you talk about the new MIT documentation or the now older TGB.

To be clear, I'm only referring to the new Torque 2D MIT from now on. GG will likely not make any efforts to try and port the old TDN docs. I've talked in several other posts about what it would take to revitalize TDN, but at this point there isn't a reason to. As I said in the other thread, it's time to start fresh with the docs just as we have done with the engine.
