frequently asked questions

This is gettin old, you moving so f'n much!

I know, but most of the time it's been beyond my control. I've been to Crosswinds, Xoom, and various other places, only to be shut down due to "Massive filesizes" or just the fact that someone thought that copyrighted stuff shouldn't be posted. (For the record, PR stuff seemingly IS allowed, due to the precedent set by the Morphin Grid website shutdown) Static Pulse has generously offered me space on his server, and I have been allocated around what I specified what I might need. What does this mean? A couple of things.

1) The site will become more stable: IE: Staying online and in one place.

2) No restrictions (to my knowledge) of content.

This is , however, my last ditch hope at space. If the site goes offline from here, then my retirement is permanent. I don't see it coming to that, but I can't rule out something happening beyond Team Sentai's control.

Team Sentai? What's that?

After the shutdown of Simudeck.com, two friends stepped up to assist in the storage and reconstruction of the site. AstroSonya (Sometimes known as just Sonya/Lady Akasha) and Static Pulse has been in charge of storage and getting the site back up. Seeing as how the site is no  longer just a single person project, I have decided to call myself and these freinds "Team Sentai" in honor of their dedication and hard work. If you happen to be on the KO-35 chatroom on IRC, please tell them that they are the best in the biz.

What is PR: OTO?

Without being too harsh, brash, offensive, etc. ARE YOU A PR FAN? PR: OTO is "Power Rangers: One time Only" Every episode from Day of the Dumpster to Countdown to Destruction will air for a final time, before they become   video memories. This site is going to try to cover EACH episode, making images and clips. For more info, go here. *Update* OTO Has been cancelled by fox kids. I plan on keeping OTO's memory alive with the tapes that I have.

What happened? Why did you get shut down?

Ask Mulder and Scully on that one. Only Xoom knows, and they ain't telling. Due to fan response and a very generous host, (Thanks Krissy!) I'm back, hopefully for good. *Update* Apparently, my "File Sizes" were too big, so they felt that deleting me was the best answer instead of letting me know so I could play within their rules.

Why don't you answer my Email?

Simply, because I've been asked things that were answered here. I mean it. :)

So what was the email so verbal about?

Despite the distasteful language, the email contained a valid question. They asked about "Codecs" . For those of you with older browsers, computers, etc. You might want to go to http://www.metacrawler.com and / or http://www.intel.com for further information. Just type in "Codec" in the search engine and it should point you right.

Will you send us update notices via ICQ?

no. There are over 35 people that will message me at one time, and I wouldn't be able to do it before ICQ crashes my system (that's why I don't keep it on much.) Just check the updates section. It will list pretty much any update I do.

Will you email me pics, videos, etc?

It goes back to why I don't do ICQ. I can't possibly handle every one that comes along due to schedule and the amount of requests. If it's a clip, episode zip, etc, it will be put on Rangerplex among the others. I will ignore any email asking for snaps and caps that could/can be downloaded once the site is up to full strength.

Why did you end requests?

To be truthful, I was kinda stupid in that respect. I didn't expect things to be so popular! I've had over 78 requests, and with me being a one man show, I can't possibly keep up with them all. Any "requests" that have come in since 6/1/99 have been placed in a "Ideas" box. That way if i'm at a loss for a clip, I can refer to that. Lately my workweek (job) has been pushing 76 hours. I'd rather end one of the features than let the entire site's quality go down.

i'm unclear on whether or not I can use your clips/images. May I?

As a thank you for your understanding in regards to the suspended request, I can say right now, YES. In fact, I plan on starting to rotate the clips so grab them when you can, cause in Paul Schrier's words. "They may not be around forever." .

May I link to your zipfiles?

In a word, NO. Even though I'm on a free webspace, sucking up bandwidth by linking to files will more than likely get Rangerplex shut down. Trust me, I will know if anyone is doing this so if you use em, download em and put em on your space....life will be cooler for everyone.

Ok, Ok, so I know about requests, usage of them, etc. What in the heck do you have on tape?

The means to worsen my carpel tunnel (grin) ....In all honesty, I have a handful of MMPR, PRZ, PRT, MMAR episodes, as well as ALL of PRIS and ALL (to this point) of PRLG on tape. Sentai wise, I have all of ZyuRanger and DaiRanger on tape, as well as episodes 1-4 of Carranger and OhRanger. I also have episodes 1-2 of KakuRanger and the Carranger vs. OhRanger movie.
