To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

[Sticky] Dead links list, v2!

Thank you for this great site, I wanted to contribute so the other day I did this...

I have worked my way through every single URL in the Games list. The list below are dead links - either completely gone, domain snatched or deleted.
I have not listed ones where the game is still there but on a different part of the same site.
Please remove the following URLs:

I have realised that a massive list of dead links could cause someone to inadvertently click one.

Therefore, please find the list hosted here: List of dead links 2021 - this is a Google Drive link but should work fine on any browser.

Nice one CWolfxUK, we probably have hundreds of dead links as the site been around for about 12 years now.

I suggest D1 move the thread to Space/ SCFI game discussion forum and sticky it, I would do it myself but can't remember how to.

It's moved.... Oh I would expect that links would be dead.... so many game studios go out of business or game pages disappear because the game is 5+ yrs old. I have been debating in dropping the URLs from the listing personally because its something else that needs to be maintained. I definitely need to spend 30-60mis every few weeks to make updates to this list, its a lot of work I basically parse the forums for new game listings and I search the list to make sure its not in there. Its a huge effort, I need to take more vacation soon maybe I will have some time then to update this list more.

Thanks a lot for this update @cwolfxuk because it does help because I have to manually check these myself on occasion and usually no one ever reports bad links 😉
