Therion sluit officiele website
De officiele site van Therion, www.megatherion.com is uit de lucht. De Webmaster heeft er de brui aan gegeven door persoonlijke omstandigheden. In onderstaand bericht wordt dit nader verklaard.
Enthousiaste Therion fans worden opgeroepen om de site over te nemen.
Webmaster: “As all good things must come to an end, for some time now I have been feeling that my time with this page is almost over. Due to many personal reasons, mainly me being overworked with other, more proffitable jobs (Hey, you gotta eat, right? The Therion page isn’t really an employer.), I simply don’t have the time nor the initiative to do stuff on this page, after I spend 15 hours a day in front of a computer screen. So I have decided to do the only proper thing, and that is to formally quit the Megatherion Intelligence Page project. I will do so in a matter of days, as I still have a lot of unsorted mail to sort (and forward to appropriate persons) and to add quite a lot of pictures from the gigs (thanx a lot for sending them people, they are great!) to add to the photo section.
“As of today, this page has no webmaster but it’s looking for one! If there’s a Therion fan(atic) out there who is willing to work for free for the next couple of years, 1-2 hours a day, has appropriate linux/webdesign/php/perl/mysql/whatever needed knowledge and skills, and wants to seriously take over this page into his/her care, please send your inquires to: therionsociety.NOSP@M.bredband.net. Before you freak out with “Me! Me! I wanna do it!”, do have in mind that Chris may already have someone else in mind, and if he doesn’t there is really a lot of work to be done. It’s not a simple job, but if you’re applying then you already know that. Page currently has NO user interfaces, everything has to be edited manualy directly in Mysql, etc, etc, and whoever takes the job will have to build something and bring the page out of the stone age.
“Well. What’s there else to say? Please don’t mail me any more with the site problems/pics/interview requests, I will deal with the ones currently in queue, but no new ones. Also I’ll be removing my email address from the appropriate webmaster mailto links, they are now all replaced by the therionsociety one (it’s the address of the TS administration, and acts as temporary headquarters until someone is hired). If you really need to contact me, try ivo.NOSP@M.element.hr.
“Bye everyone, it’s been my privilege and honour to be the webmaster of this glorious band for the last seven and a half years, I wish both Therion and the regular visitors of this page (and it’s forums) all the best luck in the future.
