SubSpace: Massively multiplayer in the underground

During the past years, there were two big SubSpace sites which held the name of the game up: SubSpace.net and SubSpaceHQ.com.
SubSpace.net was lost (expired?) some time ago but there was still SubSpaceHQ.
Not anymore.
SubSpaceHQ was captured by a Domain snapper or something as well, it is now a parking page. Now the community stands without a big game portal at all.
SubSpaceDownloads.com might be the solution.
If only TheBajan would turn it into a real portal with news and stuff. What the community really needs is a good website which existing players can show to the new kids on the block.
As it stands now, the game is virtually dead and will only be used as a chatroom with extra content in a couple of years. A shame for the best massively multiplayer game using 2d graphics.
Natural selection I guess.
*Update* subspace.net has been regained and now points to getcontinuum.com. Evolution, I guess.
Comments:
Nah, Continuum might see a decline in players since 2003-, but it's nowhere from going dead yet. Obviously it sucks subspacehq went down, but there are many alternative links such as getcontinuum.com or sscentral.com . The only thing preventing the game from advancing/catching up with the times is the fact that the game is closed-source, making updating it extremely hard.
Overall, it's still an awesome & addictive game that I recommend to everyone!
