Title: Larry Vales Games
Post by: Frodo on Thu 22/04/2010 21:08:51
Dunno if the admins are aware of this. 

Links to Larry Vales website is now just a disgusting porn site.  You may want to remove the links.   :-

Also, I couldn't find any Larry Vales threads in Completed Games.   ???

I thought this was some joke, but seriously indeed. It seems that some guy (god I hope Phil Reed doesn't really rent/or own this web domain), has this porno site. Titled: Phil Reed.com..wondering I mean sideburns are sexy. But not at that extent right?

That's just because they're classic (serious here) enough to not be released after we migrate to these new forums.

Same goes for Pleighburg, Permanent Daylight, and lots of AGS gems.

The website link does indeed point to some sort of porn aggregation site. There's not much explicit content on the actual site but it looks like the domain name no longer belongs to Phil at any rate.

Um, there's a lot of explicit content.   :(

Probably there is, and I'm certainly not going to look, but AdBlock and the ilk can filter out a lot of crap, so...

The games are still able to be downloaded at the games database at least the links work okay.

Yeah, the games are still available.  But my main concern is the disgusting link.  Is it going to be removed?   :(

The links to the games themselves work (since they are hosted elsewhere), but the link to Phil Reed's non-existent website seems to be the problem.

Nothing the Panel can do about it - since we don't have access to that part of the entry - and I think CJ is the only person who can edit it.

I haven't clicked on it myself, since porn sites scare me.

Normally I'm not squeamish about porn, but a site linking to the "incest review blog"(!), that's just... wrong.  >:(

While on the subject of Larry Vales:

Was LVIII ever released? I mean, more than the demo which is on the site.

Phil nearly came back and reworked it into a full game, a couple of times, but then he did some other stuff instead.

Like, not maintain his domain.

Are global moderators able to moderate the entire globe?

If so count me in, there's a few things that need sorting outing the Israel/Palestine region.
