Let's see... the site was down for much of yesterday and today, with the blogspot blog deleted. I managed to save the site by logging in and undeleting it from the dashboard, but it seems Mario Thoughts is gone as well.
My only guess is that Artemendo has decided to call it quits or something and delete freaking everything (replace the middle word and it references the Encyclopedia Dramatica article!).
Never the less... what to do... I've e-mailed artemendo, and I honestly expect a pretty irate reply if the above scenario is the case, but I want to know whether the site is shutting down forever or something.

It's bad, the site is now gone permanently. Artemendo will also not return here, and he might have left the fandom in general:
I wish all Mario fans, and especially you, to have fun with Mario in the future, and to continue enjoying and enriching the fandom.
I want to thank you again for participating in Waluigious.
and
Thank you for your concern, but I deleted the blog. I revoked your admin privileges and deleted it again. If you need any of your old articles from there because you have no copy of them, I can get them for you, other than that, the site is closed. I apologize.

Well, you needed an explanation to why the site was gone, and his e-mails provided said explanation. Besides, he didn't say what the personal problems were, and I wouldn't have posted them if he did. Everything said is probably fair game.

..............Wow, he didn't say anything.
I'm kinda shocked.
I should have known something was up when he left the Deviantart group.

Everything said is probably fair game. Sent him an e-mail, waiting for an answer. And it's not fair game for me until I get an actual answer. He's calling it quit on everything on Internet. A big personality of the Mario fandom dies Internet-wise and I don't know why yet. He must have serious problems in life right now. I want to know what. I'm worried. Him going away won't be valid until I know why. |

Did you get an answer?

Nope. Not yet, anyway.
Until then, I'll just pretend he's still there, if that's okay for everybody.

If he says he can't tell the reason, why are you asking about it? Sorry to *** in, but he's my best friend and boyfriend, and I think he deserves some privacy if he wishes.

Didn't know he couldn't tell, sorry.
I just want to know if anything bad has happened to him, even if I don't know what it is.

Oh. I thought you read the thread that cheat-master30 linked to. Just did. If he really doesn't want to say anything, I'd guess that has to be very bad. Or he just doesn't care about Mario anymore. Either way, hope it's going to be okay for him. |

This is really a shame. Waluigious was really the only blog of it's kind that I knew of. Mariology sites in general are few and far between, so losing a good one like that is a real blow to the community.

So I guess this is the last place for Mario then?

So I guess this is the last place for Mario then? DK Vine The Mushroom Kingdom Super Mario Wiki Mariology Forums is almost dead anyway. |

So only Mario Wiki then, because DK Vine is mainly about Donkey Kong and Rare's games (and would probably appreciate not being turned into Waluigious 2.0), and the Mushroom Kingdom forum is nearly as dead as this forum is.

Hey Koopalmier, at least we're walking and talking, not but a year ago we were in a coma; baby steps, man, baby steps.
