SHY shutting down?

[labrat]

It seems that SHY will no longer accept posts as from Thursday the 1st of December, and the server will close on 31/01/12.

So get your pics while you can.

Does anyone know if this is just a move or the complete termination of this site?

[Evilokami]

Might just be a move.

seems to popular for it to shut down.

[mezzoforte]

Was just about to ask the same question, hopefully they indicate where they're migrating to if ever

Or what new site will pick up from where Shy left off.

[Mailamea]

Shy oh why oh why, i agree to popular to close permanently.

Am I translating that right? SHY is gonna shut down by the end of january 2012?

Theres already a bunch of goodbye pictures there and if it's true then i'm prob not the only one who is gonna miss it.

Makes me wonder if there will be a new upload site for it since it's already hard enough to get hold of all the japanese mods.

[Dreamer102]

no way!

Wow...that sucks.

[LordJerle]

What's SHY?

[me3]

[HanPL]

Good! Hopefully all of those people move and post there stuff to here!

Shy's a good picture gallery, but it's horrible for files. I'd be much better if those mods and modders came to LL, which (imho) is a much better place for mods.

What's SHY?

I think its a site where you can get untranslated japanese mods (of all kinds) and pictures from the modded game, although it seemed to be mostly pictures.

The site probably isn't really that important if you dont understand Japanese. They had some interesting pics though, but pictures are just pictures. If thats the site where Lovers gets all their mods to translate from though, then DAMN lol!

Good night sweet prince

[Tanman]

What a shame. I remember stumbling upon SHY for the first time, it was actually what lead me here. I owe a lot to that site.

@Lord Jerle

Sorry, I thought everybody knew about it.

Try "shy.jsphr.net/upload/upload.php?view=image&page=1".

Bah.. What a bad news.

I wonder where all those people go to, loda or moderteam? I hate both of those web sites. Loda is slow from my location and moderteam.. I just don't understand how it works.

[Dreamer102]

If they want to come here, does LL have filehosting capabilities to mirror those available on SHY? I'm just saying....filehosting costs money. Sometimes a LOT of money...

Actually I only pay 3 something a month for unlimited bandwidth on godaddy. Only 10 gigs of server space though, might be more, they keep upgrading my plan on me lol.

[Dreamer102]

3-something?

300 something for 10gb of space you mean?

That might be too small for xLovers mods to be hosted on....maybe.

[LordJerle]

nah... 3 dollars and something cents.

Just looked at the plans, and I'm grandfathered in at a lower rate, it seems. 4.99 a month for my plan, but it's 9.99 a month for unlimited space and bandwidth, so in theory, LL could move to becoming a competitor with the nexus for pretty cheap. In theory anyway.

LL could move to becoming a competitor with the nexus for pretty cheap.

Nope. Thousands of dollars.

[blademech42]

2 more days left for someone to post a link on that site for a place that everyone can move.

Maybe it can be you...

Oh well, it was a fun ride...

[greatwulf]

They wont move to LL or Moderteam. I highly doubt that.

I guess we just need to watch the japanese bbs chan boards were all the shy and loda links normaly get posted and see if a new site pops up.

Will Oblivion Killed off Morrowind Mods, Now Skyrim is Killing off Oblivion Modding Development!

[ragindude]

Wtf...

On the good side, our "What is this mod" thread will catch a break

Nooo.

Many modders haven't touched Skyrim because there haven't been patches or any modding tools released. Oblivion will still be modded for a while. I'm pretty sure back in '06 people were stating "a fully modded Morrowind is better than a vanilla Oblivion!"
