PE Auction

Who is in charge of PE Auction (http://www.peauction.com/) and why did he abandon such a great website?

If not interested to carry, maintain and improve it, I would be grateful to be in charge of it

Thanks in advance!

I remember when PE Auction was the only form of auction sales history available in game.

PEAuction has not been gathering data since about January this year, as I recall.

The PEAuction site was originally created by II Chaos II, but he sold it to Rotrap several years ago.

When it stopped collecting data last year, Chaos was kind enough to share the email account he had for Rotrap with me. Rotrap didn't respond to the email I sent in December, but the site did start working again for a while. It's possible that was merely a coincidence rather than a reaction to my email.

But then it stopped again in January this year. He's not responded to any further emails. In my last email I did suggest:

If you've stopped playing, or lost interest in Entropia, perhaps you would consider selling or otherwise transferring the site to a current player, so that it can be maintained for the community?

It's a shame as it was a useful data collection source for other websites - Entropedia, JDegre's Chipping Optimister and BobtheBuilder sites all used to rely on it for pricing info.

Dr D.C. has recently offered his EntropiaBay site for sale here though. (https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?264336-EntropiaBay-for-sell)
Perhaps you could talk to him about that.
