If this site was a horse they would take it out to the stables and shoot it in the face.
It's a shame, but I totally agree with you - and coming from a former moderator of the site, it is ironic bud...
Yes the site is dead, but that doesn't mean it's still not a valuable archive resource for FME and fruit machines in general.
There's a wealth of information about many of the actual machines that couldn't be, but can now be emulated, when they were new or upcoming releases. Also plenty of flyers/pics of machines etc....
As a new member, it's pretty outdated and useless, but it contains a lot of information on the history of FME and actual fruit machines, in the 2000's.
It was the place to be, as WAC has said... it was a magical place about 10-15 years ago - the only place to be.
The times move on, as we all do. In fact this is first time I've posted here in nearly 2 years!
