Here's something I've been working on for quite some time. Since I'm getting closer to finishing tLTV4, I thought it would be fitting to do a feature article covering every entry in the tLTV series - the history behind the videos, comments and thoughts about their development, as well as some pre-release content (coming soon). That's all well and good, but how is tLTV4 going, you may wonder? The short answer: I'm still working on it and it's coming out sometime soon. The long answer: check out the link below!

tLTV Retrospective

I actually started writing this in January, but wanted to wait until I had more of tLTV4 done so I could talk about it in more detail. For now, most of the links to pre-release videos aren't up. This is because I got a new PC and haven't transferred everything over yet. I don't imagine many of you are interested in that anyways.

If there's anything more you'd like to know about the series, just drop a question in this thread! If it's about tLTV4, I'll do my best to dodge the question! Hope you like it!

It's hard to believe it's been over 3 years since THUGLiVE closed down. Many of you probably haven't even been around the community long enough to have seen it. Long story short, it was one of the largest TH community websites at the time, and THLiVE is basically a spinoff of it. THUGLiVE ran from 2004-mid 2005, closing down abruptly in early July. The community has never really recovered since then.

After a while, some people (myself included) had attempted to view archived pages, only to find them unavailable/offline. It seems that once CiO closed down THUGLiVE, he put up a robots.txt exclusion, so that search engines would stop indexing the site. This also meant that the Internet Archive would refuse to display the pages that were archived before the site closed down. Worse still, the THUGLiVE "tombstone" page was kept online through 2007 and well into 2008, for whatever reason, and this kept the archive down.

Anyway, I just happened to try it again today, after looking for stuff for the wiki, when I discovered that the archive works! Finally, after more than 3 years, the domain expired, and now all the archived pages are online!

View the THUGLiVE.com archive!
You'll have to copy and paste the link or search for thuglive.com yourself, because apparently BBCode doesn't like this url format.

Obviously, it isn't a complete archive, but a considerable portion of the site can be viewed, including GT pages, video pages, and many forum threads! Feel free to talk about the site in here, and post some of the pages you're able to find!

Hey guys, I've just finished setting up THWiki, which is, as you guessed, an online wiki for Tony Hawk related content! This is something I was considering over the past few months, and now I've decided to give it a shot. Ideally, this will become a much larger, more organized version of this site's information section.

Check out the actual wiki for some more details. Before you can edit pages, however, you need to know the password, which you can find in this thread. Also, make sure to read the PMWiki documentation in order to figure out how to create new pages and format them correctly.

Additionally, since this is a wiki, there is always the chance that someone will delete some articles. This wiki does support revision history. However, we don't have a community quite as large as Wikipedia where those changes would be reverted in seconds. If I find people trying to ruin the wiki, then I will simply shut it down, or lock out editing to specific people. Hopefully that won't happen though!
