Does anybody know how to contact the original people behind Everlore?

Let me know.

I'm putting together an EQ mirror / archive web resource and Everlore was a wonderful site.

Everlore was my jam back in the day. I would sit on it everyday in study hall and print maps out for my map binder haha. I loved the pic of the day and little witty things people would post.

If you can't contact them, go boldly forward and see if anyone crawls out of the woodwork... I can't imagine they'd mind you cloning a dead site.

Where other people put their crazy comments on Allakhazam in terms of what they thought quest parts were for etc... mine went on Everlore <3

I want to contact them because I'd like to ask them for site backups etc, especially the database and whatnot. Precisely for the comments and all that stuff.

Everlore was so good. I feel it's definitely underrated now after all this time

Go look up the domain name registration history and hopefully its a dude and not a company that registered it for him. This was back in the day so there wasn't a lot of domain registry sites; you had to do it the hard way.

Unfortunately a lot of the old sites are truly gone, even from the Wayback machine. This is especially true for forum sites, but it may be true for Everlore also.

Lots of old sites used the same forum system, and that forum system added a "no robots" entry because for whatever reason they didn't want Google spidering their forum posts. Wayback machine respects that entry, so it won't show archived material from sites with it. As a result tons of old forums chock-filled with great EQ info are now truly gone.

So yeah unless you can find the original Everlore guy you're probably out of luck. It's too bad so much great EQ material has been lost to time.

EDIT: Actually it looks like Wayback does have Everlore: https://web.archive.org/web/20041001000000*/everlore.com ... does that not have what you need?

Dear Everlore Sir or Madam,

Please give me free content I can sell ads on

Love,
OP

I bet if a billionaire philanthropist got into the game we could find some records :mad:

That's every fan site/forum on the internet, idiot.

archive.org is a very incomplete and often innacurate snapshot of the data. I'd like to restore Everlore with all its comments, all the screenshots of the day, etc... Basically, what made its quality.

That's not something you can get from archive.org as far as a highly dynamic site is concerned (but, for example, something that would totally work for EQAtlas).

I ended up finding the guys. They looked around but unfortunately the backups are long gone.

Looks like it isn't going to happen. Oh well, at least I tried.

[Swish2]

I want to buy vanguard and relaunch it what you guys think the chances are they would sell it to me?

i loved the music and graphics and i could probably revamp the gear system and raid content and make it interesting

It was only bought out to be shelved, I doubt they want the competition or players being taken away from their TLPs, Daybreak haven't got much gas left in the tank as it is.

Sorry you didn't get paid

[bomaroast]

Sorry about your 5000+ posts. Why do you hate someone else getting paid?

You make me look at myself, and evaluate my own toxic behaviors. At least I'm not you.

Sorry who's this?

If I were a billionaire, I'd just hire some people to make new content for P99 rather than chase after site material that's almost 100% guaranteed to be gone for good.

[Jibartik]

Imagine being the elon musk of classic everquest, this timeline needs to exist.

Wait are we fastly approaching this timeline, with p99 for rogean and nilbog?? Good luck on your quest guys!

I think it was PoP era? I remember looking up luclin info on my school PC in HS and I'd use Everlore and EQcastersrealm for info.
