Hey all, I can't say I visit the Progarchives page all that much (spend enough time chained to the main site as it is! ), but does anyone know why it hasn't been updated in over two weeks at this point?

Actually, another question - who actually is in charge of what ends up on there?

Seeing how it occasionally picks up the most random threads to feature as news and the automatic info about added releases, I don't get the feeling that there is an actual person who makes those posts. M@X is the one who is in charge probably.

All content is generated automatically, it's explained on the "about" section of the page. Maybe the captcha test is not letting it work?

Thanks, gentlemen! Yes, I assumed the forum threads that it posts were random (some of the choices have been awful! ), but I assumed it was someone literally filtering out the reviews of modern/recent albums and not posting links of the classic/older discs.

The Progarchives Facebook page appears to have died on May 11th as far as picking up new content is concerned. The famous someone better look into it.

Is `He That Shall Not Be Named' the one who maintains the FB page, though?

It is a real shame not seeing all the new releases and the reviews of them pop up on it...as well as all the scoffs from metalheads whenever new Opeth albums show up there
