Sonic 292 Posted September 14, 2003 As you can see the forums are back, the stink thing is we have to start again. So if you were registered here before please re-register and help us re-build our forums. We are sorry for the down time we had earlier this week, we are also sorry we lost our forums data. We now the have the means to back up our forum's database so if problems occur in the future we can restore them easier. The reason for the old database not being restored was because it was corrupted badly. Our server admin team tried their best to recover it. So the total data loss for the major server problem was the forums database and about 2 months worth of news updates from the main page. Everything for the forums has been set up again, the colour scheme, the user ranks etc... All the new smilies will return very soon, they take awhile to set up. You will also spot a couple of new forums to. If you have any questions ask them here. Share this post Link to post

Sonic 292 Posted September 14, 2003 I'm glad the forums are back to. Would have been cool if we got the old database back though. We didn't so lets not cry about it. The important thing is we will never loose our database again. Either myself or GenKiller will be backing it up every 12-24 hours. Every 24 hours at minimum. If only you could see the expression on my face last Tuesday afternoon when I found out all of our files were gone. And you should have heard the nasty language I was using :wink: Share this post Link to post
