    Default Two Months Of Data Gone - Help Us Rebuild

    At first i thought losing two days of data was really bad but now we have lost almost 2 months worth of data. If you havent noticed, everthing posted from May 13th to June 25th are Gone. All threads, new members, Posts, mods, and etc.

    It was due to a hosting issue. Their server was "accidentally" wiped out. I am asking for compensation to help me rebuild with some extra money and so on. I will be dealing with that problem in the coming weeks.

    At first I thought I should just restore the forum and sell it because of my hard work gone down the drain. But after talking to a few forum members, staff, and friends I have decided to keep the forum and just work harder. It was my fault for not taking a backup last week as I had planned but we will be taking weekly backups from now on.

    I am so sorry for your losses and please believe me that I have lost way more. The forum posts stats have been lost by 4,000 and member count by almost 40. Our Best month of june has turned into the worst possible. But look at the bright side, July just holds more - now you can start topics already started before and know what you are talking about.

    I will be hiring more staff members - please PM me if you can offer any sort of help.

    Thank You!

    Sorry about the loss.
    >< I was 35 points away from a steam game.
    And a weekly backup sounds like the right thing to do...

    its ok dont worry - i will be making a thread where i will make you estimate the amount of points you have and i will reasign you the points - just give me about 2 weeks on that if you can please - i will set up everything again -

    but in the mean time - ALL CONTESTS ARE PUT ON HOLD UNTIL JULY 7th, 2007 - Sorry for this but i just need some time to get everything settled up. The forum is showing a ton of errors for me so i have to get it all fixed.

    Thanks!
