Removed the Dune link it's no longer valid.


I was only able to click on one or two links on this page that were still valid. Most of the links here seem to go to spam-pages, at least according to my WOT.


This page needs to really be cleaned up, since most if not all of the 3rd edition links go to 404-page not found results, or worse, pages listed as Spam, or Fishing sites. So many of these links are dead, and invalid that if the page is going to re-main up it might actually be an easier editing job to change the name of the page, and remove the 2 or 3 links that still work and call the page "Dead links to GURPS Netbooks".


Some of the sites have found new homes. For example, Arcadayn, Barsoom, and Kalamar can be accessed just by changing 'geocities' to 'reocities', and they're probably not the only ones. Unfortunately, I can't edit that section, due to one or more of the links already present (the tripod one, which currently is not dead) causing the spam filter to balk.

Also, some of the 'dead' links are archived at the Wayback Machine.

I've temporarily removed the tripod.com site from the spam filter, and updated all the geocities links to reocities. If the tripod.com spammers start again, they will be blocked. But feel free to update the page. Thanks GORT 11:44, 4 October 2012 (PDT)

Sadly the reocities links are now dead and so I have used the waybock machine. I am also going back and seeing if removed books are archive there.--Bruce Grubb (talk) 09:05, 27 June 2018 (PDT)

I have started putting a variation of this page up on the GURPSwiki as the moderation notices drive me nuts; honestly if anybody is vandalizing this wiki (unlikely IMHO) then there are other ways to handle it. I am adding dates that site last saw an update (eliminating the whole separate by 4e and 4e thing) Also some, like Arcadayn, have moved on to other sites (it now sits at sites.google.com).
