HUTP Ending at MSN ...


A sad day for me! :(
I sent out the following Announcement over at our Original HUTP Site just moments ago.
Those of you who are still listed over there at the original site will get this e-mail announcement.
The END of a CLassic UT Site, Our Original Site started 8/11/2001 over at MSN Groups!

The E-Mail Announcement...


Hello all you long standing members of Hook's UT Place!
I have sent you this message to let you know about the fate of this site.
We have had MANY Great times on this site and many of us have become good friends.
BUT - all good things sometimes come to an end.
I am sorry to announce that MSN will No Longer Host MSN Groups and therefore no more Hook's UT Place here at MSN.
I am sorry to see it go but there is nothing I can do at this point.
HUTP at MSN (only AT msn) will close sometime in February 2009.
An end of a great run and era for HUTP - (msn only)

We have started a new UT site and Forums hosted else where already a few years ago.
A GREAT UT99 GameServer is also UP there!
We have mainly used this MSN hosted site (the original HUTP) as a redirect to the New Site and Forums anyway.
In case you missed it, the New URLs are as follows...
Hook's UT Place Site: http://www.hooksutplace.co.nr
HUTP Forums: http://www.hooksutplace.co.nr
OR: http://www.hooksutplace.freeforums.org
Our UT99 Gameserver is at: 74.33.99.160:7757

I hope to see some of you at the new forums, if you haven't already registered there.
UT99 Forever!

Sadly - Hook
But - see you at the new site and forums! :)

I will have to grab everything I can and Salvage what I can over there before MSN finally closes the MSN Groups area over there and our original site goes into oblivion.
HUTP at MSN was truely one of the original Classic UT sites Established 8/11/2001.
I really MISS those early days of UT!
So long old friend!

It's always sad when things like this happens, is there a way to move the whole stuff on another location? :(

Not much need to since Hook already said
We have mainly used this MSN hosted site (the original HUTP) as a redirect to the New Site and Forums anyway.
Any relevant info could be copied & put into an archive onto the new site/forum. :wink:
