If a link is dead, am I out of luck?

Post by ImagineSafety » Tue Oct 25, 2022 4:57 pm

Hey everyone, have been trying to find/download this (https://www.animemusicvideos.org/member ... p?v=177681) AMV for years now. It was created by rapoverrockamvs who seemingly disappeared from the face of the internet. I remember as a kid how amazing his videos were. I've managed to get a few of them downloaded, but there are a lot more that vanished without a trace. The one I linked "DRAGON BALL Z - RAP AMV - ANYTHING FOR YOU - FEEL GOOD VID" was actually reuploaded by a youtube channel called RORAMVS a few years ago, but the computer I downloaded it on currently has a fried motherboard and most of his content got strikes so they're gone again. I thought that channel was the original creator, but likely just a fan who had his work downloaded.

So am I completely out of luck? No local file and only an indirect link on the page for the AMV. Thanks in advance.

You are most likely out of luck. If the editor did not upload their video to the database, then it simply is not here.

Did you try sending a private message to this user? They have not logged in for almost 9 years now but if they are still using the same email address that they registered their Org account with, then they would get a notification that someone here is trying to contact them. That might be your best bet at this point.

I have not tried that, but thanks for the idea!
