Kind of annoying when somebody makes something great then all of a sudden deletes/removes everything connected to him/her (site, twitter) without saying a word then we're all left wondering if something happened, if it's coming back, googling for information, etc...

Well, it is not said that Mysticals knows about it yet.

But he deleted his twitter too, unless the people running twitter deleted him? Guess we won't know until he says something.

Most US companies which have services like this - react to an DMCA by immediate service interruption - the californian law is pretty strict and most service providers take content temporarily down as the first immediate action or block it - until the claim is resolved. In second life this was always a problem for any content provider, that a DMCA led to an immediate action of Linden Lab and the content in doubt was disabled, until this was resolved - it could be here something like this as well.

And the TOS of that side demands a written agreement - not one that could be eventually acquired, but one that already exists, before the content is put live.

Maybe but in that case Mysticals would have simply looked for another host to upload his work and announced here that the site would be back online soon.
He said instead that he took it down permanently and that he did not want to explain why.
So the provider-TOS theory doesn't fit, imho.

ZOS created ESO but Bethesda still owns the rights to Elder Scrolls... ZOS could have been alright with it but Bethesda might not have liked it...

That sounds more like it - would not be the first time the community managers support an initiative that the lawyers later disapprove of. Happened to a lottery organised by... Mysticals.

But this theory doesn't really fit either : what could be wrong with Mysticals' site that wouldn't impact eso-fashion in the exact same way ?

Ok,I did not know that Mysticals made a statement about it. Strange really.

Of course he does (Mysticals is a "He", btw ;-) ). He posted about it in his original thread. And deleted all his own posts in said threads too.

My guess is still a legal issue - maybe with a threat óf suing him by an attorney and a no-disclosure agreement to settle it. And so he cannot talk about the reasons and takes all down - my guess.

Wow, very sad I used that site this morning (Saturday early morning).

Either it's a personal reason not directly related to ESO or the site, or it is a threat from someone or something on the internet (but threatening to what ?) or it is a legal issue (but then again : why this site and not eso-fashion ??? )

We will never know, I doubt that he will ever talk about it.

I'm really upset.

Right now I'm trying to create a Magicka TBS set and now the site is gone.

Sure ESO-Fashion exists but the UI doesn't compare.

RIP.

=/

ESO Fashion is a messy clusterfudge compared to what Mystical's was.

This is very unfortunate....

I had only recently found his site. It was fantastic! Best site for ESO motifs ever created.

With the recent news, all I can say about this is that I sincerely hope Mysticals is not in any trouble and can shed light on the issue eventually. Maybe one day the site will come back but I won't get my hopes up.

Lysette · June 2016

I just checked the archive services for the internet - that site was not archived in time - too bad.

I stop all, i don't want to explain why and don't want comment on more about that. Just sorry.

For previews, you stil have http://eso-fashion.com/

It's always disappointing when a member of the community chooses to shut down a beloved site like this, and we're glad to see so many people expressing their support. However, since this isn't something they wish to talk about, and there's a lot of potential misinformation in this thread, we are locking the discussion.
