My site's gone!

My site at http://rgmt.pcplayground.com/ disappeared with no warning last week. Is there anything I can do to get it back?

it appears as though tommy has moved your site to a restricted part of the server. try contacting him webmaster@pcplayground.com. this is normally done because of illegal content or nonpayment, however it may be something else. check with tommy and he will be able to let you know.

note: i have no power or association with pcplayground, ive just been here a really long time and this happens pretty regularly and normally for the same reasons. :)

Is Tommy on a vacation for Thanksgiving or something? I already PMed and e-mailed him about this, with no response to either. I'd be very happy to discuss whatever the issue is with him if only I could get in touch with him.

Can anybody confirm/deny that Tommy is actually around? If he accidentally killed my site and then had some kind of freak accident the next day and has been in the hospital ever since, I would understand. Otherwise it's looking like I'm being ignored, without even the courtesy of being told what my supposed violation was.

Not sure what happened. However, I have restored your site. Sorry for the delay in the response, I've been overwhelmed with school and work lately.

Thank you! No worries about the downtime, I know how wacky computer glitches and sudden overwhelming workloads can be.

I don't suppose I could regain access to my website in order to set the pages to redirect to the location I set up to replace it after that big system crash or whatever wiped out the hosted account FTP passwords?

Google still favors the frozen-in-time pcplayground site over my active site, I finally learned today why: "Google often automatically penalises or obscures sites which duplicate or are too similar to other sites, as such sites are often attempts by web spammers to gain viewers parasitically." Great.

Anyway, it was good while it lasted, when I was forced to go host shopping again I found that prices out there decreased dramatically since the time I joined up with you, so that worked out okay too.

Sure, you can get access again.
