In the green I see, That’s great! Always looking in to see how things are holding up. Glad to know all are still here and with new things happening. Keep it up. 🙂
Well there certainly won’t be any new actual Freelancer games coming however even now there still seem to be new Freelancer mods coming out and of course there’s all the “spiritual sequels” (eg Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, Starpoint Gemini 3, Underspace, Everspace 2 etc etc) that keep arriving almost every year which if the site offered some mod support/hosting/forum sections for might bring in new crowds.
But yeah I’ve seen a number of great sites fall to bits during a upgrade/transition over the years (eg Apolyton Civ mods) so it would be awful if something like that happenedh ere.
Actually last time I was unable to post until I logged out and logged in again (like others described). The other times I had to wait some minutes and it worked then. Trying multiple times without waiting always resulted in the session timeout message. For PMs it is even worse: You just get an empty black window.
Edit: Since I did the logout and login afterwards I did not have any problems (like with this post), but that might just be coincidence.
OK, thanks for the replies. I understand that the person who uploads files must have the “rights” of the stuff or must have the permission of those who have the “rights”.
I am not talking about MS copyright, but about the modders.

A sequel by MS (or any other mayor publisher) is the worst thing that could ever happen to Freelancer.
And as FF says, even you get the source code, you actually just get a old wheel maybe even made with old design pattern, and it may make you crazy when you want to improve it.
Pretty much, I wouldnt really pay for it at this point. Only thing they could do is release it for free now, but yeah the probability of that happening is pretty much 0.
@ sumanuti
LOL… Well I like it better that way… so people will see that Starport is still active and the best of the best modderz and hackerz/programmerz (lol) are still willing to answer noob questions… haha!
