boo fucking hoo.
don't blame us if someone went and changed the links.. Christ..
How about instead of whining, you go be productive and search the domains those links went to for those pages?
I mean, heaven forbid somebody actually FIXES a problem instead of just bitching about it..

screw you all. i thought id bring it to someones attention since the faq should atleast be working and acurate for everyone. im not whining about anything i could give a shit, i just thought id mention something to help out. and do i look like a moderator? i cant fuckin post in the faq forum so how the hell would i have fixed it?:mrmeph:

you could have fixed it by 'report this post' and include the new links
or you could post here like you did and supply the new links.
Forgive us greatly for bemoaning the fact that all too frequently, people just bitch about stuff instead of either trying to help fix it, or coming up with ideas/solutions to fix it.
Oh, and it didn't help that your first post in this thread had a bit of an attitude to it.. (to me, at least)

in no way was that supposed to come off as an attitude. i was simply reporting the post thinking that it should be deleted to help clean up the faq section a little. i tried the original links, then tried running the root link. www.integra.vtec.net or whatever it was. since that wasnt working i came to the conclusion that those werent available articles anymore. thats why i said something. it was just me trying to contribute since i couldnt delete it not being a moderator. i had no idea that the host moved or renamed or however since what i tried didnt work and i didnt know the domain so i wouldnt know if it changed. i just seen it as me pointing out something to help and getting completely chewed out for it.

Good - "archive post Theory of a Rotating Mass links broken"
Bad - "not very useful and faq worth if the links dont work"

Would have been much better so see someones first post say
hey just wanted to let you know that the links are dead in the theory of a rotating Mass topic in the FAQ section. Any idea where I could find these articles now? If they still exist, could someone update the FAQ so others can find the information easily.

PS: this site roxorz! :)
hehe :p

Intentional or not, your original post had a bad tone to it for anybody, even worse seeing it as someones first post.

Just FYI the link changed but the domain is still the same. integra was a subdomain of vtec.net. So if your ever looking for something again and it is www.subdomain.domain.com/folder/article and it doesn't work, the base domain would simply be www.domain.com.
