AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Was my reaction.

Sorry to inform you but the site where most of us went to check out dialouge no longer online anymore. I went there ALL THE TIME. Went back and it was just gone.

Yep it's been gone for a month or two which has really been making it hard for Kat and I to find dialog for TKS! Ugh!

so sad it's gone!!

Yeah. I thought it was just down for repairs or something and when I went back I was like "Yep it's gone."

Yeah its' gonna be hard for everyone. I know I used it A LOT especially for AU type of vids.

Oh BUMMER!

That really sucks, that was such a handy reference place!

Yeah it really was. I am not surprised because they never finished all season 4.

I really wish they'd bring it back.

I know!!!! I was sooooo upset when I found out. That site was pretty invaluable.

Lostpedia is helpful for stuff like finding scenes where people are doing something particular, like using a gun, but there's nothing like the dialog search LH had. So unfortunate.

Is there a way it could be done here? It's just a suggestion.

Pretty cool about that other site I didn't know about that one.

But yes hte dialogue is so helpful when you need Matthew Fox to say a certain word.

Well, I just figured out Lostpedia has the transcripts!!!!!!!!

http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Transcripts

It's not quite as helpful as being able to search a big database, but, if you at least have some idea what episode a certain quote might be in, you can search that episode to confirm or find out who says it when. Just click on whichever transcript and then use the "find" feature on your browser to search for that particular character/word.

It would take *forever*, but you could copy/paste all of the transcripts into one word document, and then just search that every time you're looking for a particular word or a particular character quote.

I loved that site. I used to use it alot to find dialogue. I've used Lostpedia and it's helpful but it was never as good as being able to search for the dialogue.

That's kind of sad that another great Lost site has died.

I thought it had died :/ I used to use it ALOT! In fact, it stopped working while I was half way through an AU vid so that sucked even more. I would love to create our own searchable transcript site but I have no idea how!!

couldn't make one as good as Lost Hatch anyway

I'm going to see if I can paste them all into a document that is searchable, like a .pdf or something, which people could download. I'll let you know how it goes.
