I've been trying to get on Eurobeat Prime since yesterday but for some reason it's not loading up. Is anyone else having this problem?

The site opened for me but it is slow

Maybe their server is just so fast that we can't reach it!

Yeah, I can't login at all. Sounds like there's no rush to fix things either. Kinda depressing.

There are some people trying to gather up and fixing the site.
It seems that these scratches go so deep below the surface that it might take a while to have it all up working again.

So please don't lose hope, because it might end up running like normal again.
If anyone is versed enough in php or phpBB and want to offer help then get in touch with the current discord channel of ebp or let me know and I'll redirect everything (since I'm still logged in).

Something more modern is needed. I honestly never touch the main website, just the forums.

My wish would be a main site with a news section, and a general “About Us” and “What Is Eurobeat” section along with a user-editable wiki that contained a lyrics, artist, labels, compilations section etc. Last cool feature (which most forums have) would be the ability for users to link to their other accounts (Facebook, Last.fm, etc). I think it would particularly useful to have a Discogs link so that users could share their reviews and collections. Since there’s already a good number of Eurobeat enthusiasts on Discogs, it would help to make the presence on there more prominent if users would write their reviews and provide ratings there, rather than just in a forum post.

I wish I was versed in web development, I would jump on the project so fast. But unfortunately all I can really offer is moral support lmao

Same, unfortunetaly I can't find the time to learn all of that otherwise I'd do it.

But I don't care for the design, sure the main page is old and looking clunky but the forum is good in my opinion. Not bloated with anything or fancy metro design.

Maybe we could move most of the pages in EBP to here?
https://eurobeat.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
It's fairly empty and Wikia/Fandom is editable by all
Just a suggestion of course.

Seems like the website is down again. I have no idea what's going on so if anybody knows let me know.

Yeah it is, I'm in the official eb-prime discord server and there are various people working on the website right now (don't know the technical details), transferring files over and updating code etc.
Can't say when the process will be complete, but it's by no means dead. happy.gif

Someone needs to backup the lyrics database. After Bore said in some thread that future of the site is up in the air, I’m expecting it to just disappear one day.

What even caused the sudden php errors? Was their php version updated?

Oh, that's good to hear. I find EP a lot easier to navigate when looking for certain songs or albums. Hopefully it remains so. Thanks for the update! smile.gif

I should have informed you guys earlier, but I'm currently in the final stage of getting the Eurobeat Prime back on-line. We moved servers and had to update a lot of old code from 2004. Just wait a little longer! smile.gif

Code from 10+ years ago. That hadn't exactly been upgraded since then. And the php versions had updated quite a bit from since. Things might be a-okay for now. Not thanks to me though, but it's functional again.

The website DANCE GROOVE has a really good database as well: http://www.dancegroove.net/database/
