Sorry yall, the Mapfiend site has been taken down permanently, for a combination of:
Personal reasons; After a year and a half, I will FINALLY be putting up my shameless
self promotion website to show off my l33t scripting and grafix skillz :)

Financial reasons; After going over my bandwith limits, and adding a second account
to handle the spill-over bandwidth, site usage dropped to almost nil, rendering the
second account useless. The site got quite costly, with no return.


As for the future, I plan on using the experience I gained with Mapfiend and CrushandSwill.com
to start a Free Online Guild hosting service with ALL the trimmings, and some side dishes
that nobody is currently offering :)

A snapshot of all the maps that were on Mapfiend, both EQ and DAOC is available here

The scripts I wrote to generate the png images, flash files and Adobe illustrator files
will be available from my new site within the coming weeks.

I thank you all for the support you have shown me in the past, and teaching me how to
maintain a descent web site

I wonder if knows that the reason his site usage dropped to "nil" was becuase the shopping cart tool he was using was broken....
