Most takedowns are not irate authors complaining to web hosts. That happened to me once (or maybe twice), and obviously happened to Jay and Acacia; for the most part, though, it's pretty rare.

Most missions vanish because their hosts just drop them. We lost a lot in the fall of Geocities; we're losing a fair bit now because Webs.com have been having a cleanout.

And... well, we already have an archive for those old missions which are under threat. PPC: The Lost Tales, run by Neshomeh. For that matter, I've rehosted a few myself, and I know others have as well.

And finally... uh, you're very new. I'd love to think you're going to stick around for decades to come, but there's only a handful of people here who've made it through the last decade. So if one person sets themselves up as the host for all PPC works, what that's likely to mean is that we lose everything when they let the site lapse.

Is that some of the older stuff vanishes as stuff gets taken down, and stuff published on the Pit gets abolished because the Suethors complain to the Pit's authorities. Other than that, things are pretty stable, I think?

Since I am not eligible to do missions yet, so I do not know, I do think that when you have a large shared universe, putting it all in one place makes it a lot easier for readers to find. So from that angle it makes some good sense.

Also if you want help creating the site I would be willing to pitch in. I am by no means a web designer, but I am not unfamiliar with HTML, PHP, or CASS. I would need to do a substantial bit of refreshing in all of those, but I can do that.

As it was I had planned on setting up my own website for both my original fiction, since I have gotten tired of shopping it around to magazines, and my own PPC when I do get permission.
