Multitext is now defunct.

    As of today, Ciaran's multitext has been permanently disabled due to a personal request from Ciaran himself.

    What does this mean?
    It means you will be unable to send messages through multitext as of today.

    Why has this be done?
    Donut has implemented blocking of MT due to a personal request from Ciaran to cease the operation of mt. This explains why the MT website has been down as of late. I repeat that this task has been requested by Ciaran. Donut was just following orders.

    Is there a replacement
    Yes, obviously you can still use the AFT app on your phone to send messages and the Msn Bot. As of today you can also use my new web multitext clone, AftWeb. Click here for more information.
    It is also to my knowledge that donut is creating a .NET client as well.

    ^^ So did I. Any reason why it's no longer being run?

    I've had so many messages about this. MultiText is no longer a project that I'm working on.

    Thanks for all the interest lads but it's run it's course.

    Seeing as it is stable, would it be possible to leave the server running and then those who currently use it could continue to use it?
    It was the most useful program on my entire computer.

    And if it is the case that it won't be restarted, thank you Ciaranfo. The program was much appreciated.

    Hey guys, I used multitext a bit myself too so I used a hex editor to edit the request string, and it seems to be working again ok now. Just replace your old multitext.exe with this one and itll work again. :) Link posted below.

    EDIT: The forum rules clearly state no linking or provision of crack of software.

    A bit sly isn't it :mad: I'm sure it was shut down and the code blocked for a reason. If he wanted us to keep using it all he had to do was pull the download and then no new users would be using it but existing ones could continue.

    If thats the case then we should have been given a reason why he scrapped it.
    Right now there is no reason not to use it, so i dont see the problem.

    Thanks a lot timminus for restoring the program! :D
