In short, Luke was updating the server and the guys running volume drive "accidentally" wiped it. Luke doesn't have the energy or money to start over. so here we are.

This was sent out on the newsletter last week:
"Good evening, everyone. As you've noticed, CLLCT is down. The bad news is that it's down forever. We were going to upgrade the server, and the guys at volumedrive assured us they wouldn't wipe the server (i very specifically asked them not to). Of course, they did just that, and when I asked them why, they said "OH I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD TOO MANY FILES TO REUPOLOAD. HAHA, SORRIES!" Because they're apparently run by children. I did backup, but because it didn't seem like a high priority I forgot to backup the php database...making everything impossible to put back together. On top of that, volumedrive won't even give us a refund.
I'm very sorry, everyone...I don't have the energy and the will to recreate CLLCT. Doing it the first time completely exhausted me, doing it a second time would probably kill me. I will, eventually, move on to create other websites, but none of them will ever mean to me what CLLCT did. I'm proud to have known all of you and I'm proud that you were all members of my family."

Dang, that's sad. CLLCT was where I first found out about the DIY music scene and discovered many of my now favorite bands. An end of an era, I guess.
