Hey guys, long time no see! You're probably all wondering where I've been for the past few months, since I vanished without a trace... Well, the truth is, back on Christmas Eve, I somehow slipped on a banana peel and ended up falling down 493 consecutive flights of stairs. After that I went into a coma, and I didn't wake up from it until just now. It sounds pretty crazy, I know, but I'm just glad to be back .
So, how have things been going on the wiki during this time? Any major updates I should be aware of? I hope nobody else has been using my accounts while I was out...
Considering YIFY was a group that just took existing rips and compressed them to shit quality, I'm gonna assume either that torrent or that screenshot was fake

Nice! Added them to the OP, thank you!
(sad to say but this will be the LAST ms paint avatar i will do for this. it was fun while it lasted, but despite me starting it for the sake of getting this to move faster, now it's just slowing things down as it takes me more than twice the time to update the thread. sorry to anyone else who wanted one )
Since it’s been a while and I want to stay a volunteer, here’s a double edit!
Article Name: Blade Runner - San Diego Sneak Preview (lost scenes of science-fiction film; 1982) Edited?: (Yes) (No) Categories: Lost Film Summary: I added an infographic, trimmed some fat, reworded some parts, added some organization, and I fixed the references. Link.
Article Name: Metal Slug 1-3 and X (cancelled Gameboy Advance ports; 2005) Edited?: (Yes) (No) Categories: Lost video games Summary: I added all of the sections, fixed the YT imbed, and fixed the references (which took me a fooking hour, jeez!). Link.
Thanks, added them to the OP. Keep up the good work!
I regret that things turned out this way (none of us wanted to kick you out, you're a good person), and admittedly none of us on the staff have handled this issue too well so far. We'll definitely try to do this better in the future, since I think all of us can agree that the past few days have been a general shitshow. I hope you understand and aren't taking this personally, and just know that you're more than welcome to come back once you're old enough. Until then, so long...
Question - did you mean the site in general or the discord?

Since you appear to still be a mod for the old archive, mind deleting this? lostmediaarchive.wikia.com/wiki/ALF_Autopsy appears to be a stub of when creepypasta was still a thing there.
We are not affiliated with the LMA and have no interest in helping them clean up their mess. And I was never a mod there. Locking this thread btw, Apollo's question was answered and I've deleted the article. No use rambling on about it.
lol I was thinking about this poll earlier today. Wouldn't it be more appropriate if it was done using years instead of pure age? Because, you know, people grow up and eventually leave the age group they voted for, leaving the original choices inaccurate in a few years...
Fwiw you can change your vote if you have a birthday or something
At the very least that picture is DEFINITELY fake - that's not handwriting, it's a font. Notice how both of the R's in the word "RETURN" look exactly the same. And how there's no grain on the text despite there being clearly visible grain on the other dark parts of the picture.
For those who are able to view the server at the moment and are wondering where the bots went, we didn't do anything to them, they're just offline. They'll be back once Discord sorts out this outage.
To be honest, I think that DVD will be simply remembered as a medium inferior to BD, just like how CD is regarded as inferior to DVD when it comes to data storage. VHS at least has its charm as an analog medium, but what can we say about DVD? You can have extras on BD, at a much higher quality than DVD and, depending on the product, without the need for multiple discs. DVD is more durable than VHS? It's debatable, I've seen VHS tapes from the early 80's up and running 30 years later, while some of my home-burnt digital video discs from 10 years ago aren't recognized by my computer anymore...
Keep in mind, there's a BIG difference between CD-Rs/DVD-Rs and professionally pressed CDs/DVDs. The latter works by having the data physically etched into the disc, meaning that unless it gets broken/scratched or something, it'll probably last forever. The former works by storing the data into a certain type of dye, which makes it good for home use because it doesn't require expensive equipment to make one disc, but bad for longevity (average lifespan of a CD-R is around 10 years).
In case any future historians stumble across this thread and think it's actually uncovering any previously unknown cartoons, it's not. lostmediafan was confirmed to be a troll in another thread. Locked.
As StarviendSir pointed out, this has already been disproven multiple times. There is no need to keep talking about it and repeating the same points. Locked.
