PR2hub

PR2hub is a website owned by Jacob Grahn.
It launched in December 2010 and hosts Platform Racing 2's http server and level back-up system.
==History==
PR2's http server hosts the game's levels, music, ban log, etc. as well as handles saving a player's progress. It was originally located at jiggmin2.com, which also hosted files for Jiggmin's other games like PR1 and Musical Evenizer.
It was later announced PR2 would immediately receive a dedicated server at pr2hub.com in December 2010."pr2hub.com". Jiggmin. December 15, 2010. Initially it continued serving only as a host, with 2 random YouTube videos on the homepage."pr2hub.com" (January 2011 archive) An update in March 2012 replaced them with the game itself, paving the way for more features later on."Pr2 is on Pr2hub.com!". Jiggmin's Village. May 9, 2012.
==Level Back-ups==
A system for players to restore their levels was added in October 2012."PR2 Backups Beta". Jiggmin. October 4, 2012. To be used they must be currently logged into their account with "Remember Me" checked due to the lack of an outside sign in system.
Because of storage limitations, this only applies to courses that have been modified or deleted within the last month."Motley Monday ep.2 - Passwords Are Amusing" - YouTube
==Requests==
Given its primary hosting purpose, people are able to send various requests to the website that the game pulls from and view them in raw text form (though some require them to be signed in via "Remember Me") .
*https://pr2hub.com/levels/number.txt - A level's data searchable by ID number.
*https://pr2hub.com/get_player_info.php?name=Jiggmin - Profile data that contains a user ID not seen in-game.

*https://pr2hub.com/search_levels.php?mode=user&search_str=test&order=date&page=1 - Level search feature. Unlike in-game, users wren't limited to 9 pages of results.
*https://pr2hub.com/submit_rating.php?level_id=number&rating=number - Allowed the user to rate a level by its ID. Threw an error if a rating not 1-5 was submitted.
*https://pr2hub.com/add_friend.php?target_name=Jiggmin - Added a user to their friend list (changing "add" to "remove" deleted them).
*https://pr2hub.com/ignore_user.php?target_name=Jiggmin - Added a user to their ignored list (adding "un_" removed them).
==Trivia==
*As raw level data isn't restricted, players can view unpublished and password protected courses.
*Each level contains a "credits" parameter that's unused in-game. While blank for most levels, ones published during the beta have a log of creation and update dates occupying it, with the final known level created before its removal being "Goal's" by Laibu on April 28, 2008.
