Yeah, the ideal outcome is someone using the site dump on Archive.org to create a sucessor site. The longer it takes to get done, the more people will rely on Dicord to host romhacks, which is terrible for discoverability.

Hopefully any new site keeps the high standards romhacking dot net upheld; it's way too easy to make a hack that unintentionally breaks other things in a game.

Regarding Discord, its un-openness to the 'net at large is definitely a prominent issue. But another problem (based on my limited experience) is that its people just aren't very friendly. It's like a large portion of them are annoyed at having to interact with other people. I don't know why that is or even if it's true, but that's the feeling I got from it.
