I've been so absent from the PM online world that I was totally unaware of this until I came accross this thread.

Heather, I too have to show lots of gratitude because of your wonderful website and your amazing job on it.

I am sorry to hear the difficulties you are under to keep it run it all by yourself, but it's totally understandable and I, like many folks on here, would be willing to contribute financially-wise to not loose PlaymoDB, if ever necessary. However it's good to know someone at the Playmobil company is being cooperative. Please keep us informed about how it unfolds.

I hope that if/when PlaymoDB gets shut down, the database will be available for download... I'm still convinced that a parts database should be able to perform like lightning..its not that much data...

(this is not an insult at the owner or anything, but just an outing of frustration, all that information stored and no way to access it...argh its doing my head in! :))

I'm sure it's still more frustrating for Heather who owns playmoDB and has put (and is still putting) lots of time and money into the site.

I've been away from the board and Playmobil in general over the last year or so and while I hope PlaymoDB has a positive outcome, regardless I and others owe Heather a tremendous debt of gratitude for her time, effort, and expense over the years.  Thank you, Heather! :thanks:

Is there any update on what is happening (if anything) with playmoDB? is there any plan in restoring original operation etc?

I saw this thread pop up on the "unread posts" and was hoping it would state that the site was up and running again.

Are new sets even being added anymore?

Just had a look... The images of the new Shopping Mall and Asia Dragon sets are there, but without parts-inventory though (except for a single part here and there).
I wonder if Playmo-db will ever get fully functional again...

I'd like to know if there was anything we could do to help.

I think we all owe Heather a great deal and if I could help out I would.

It is almost a year that playmoDB is (half) down... I was wondering if there is any update on what its fate will be. We may wake up one morning and even whatever leftover functionality is there, gone...
