COM · 06-25-2008, 12:05 PM

I lost my PMs from after mid-April.

No big deal, nothing that I really need.

oliesminis · 06-25-2008, 04:04 PM

do the posts we made dissapear as well. im missing about 200 posts of of my count i think

IM BACK EVERYONE

Kyoberr · 06-25-2008, 04:23 PM

I lost my PM's, so did everyone that signed up since April get disconnected too? I think I have the same number of posts.

blcknwitecuban · 06-25-2008, 04:35 PM

alot of my posts are gone. ahh

Good Wolf · 06-25-2008, 04:38 PM

Did you post that avatar to express your distaste of the situation or is that just a coincidence?

Either way the post with the pic cracked me up.

COM · 06-25-2008, 04:52 PM

That's an awesome pic.

I had over 500 posts. Doh.

**Shaggy** · 06-25-2008, 05:49 PM

I know. I screwed up. I decided to bring up the backup because of the pop up we were getting. I wanted to do a daily restored backup to get rid of the hack job, my server backs up everything everyday. So I choose to do a daily backup and I come to find out after I restore a backup, that the only backup I had was this date, the same time I set it back the first time I was hacked

You should have seen how pissed I was when I noticed the posts dates! I am seeing if I can get the site back to its original date. Sorry guys/gals

blcknwitecuban · 06-25-2008, 07:49 PM

its ok shaggy. its funny cuz my old advatar and sig is back to the old one.

Buggy · 06-25-2008, 09:49 PM

No problem Shaggy. It's not like it's a life changing tragity or anything. We know you're doing your best.

sneasle · 06-26-2008, 02:15 AM

No worries mate. We'll get over it and move on. You've done a great job (as far as I know). We all know sh*t happens, hopefully it only helps to improve the forums in the long run.

Ghost Knife · 06-26-2008, 09:26 AM

I had 100 posts and now I barely have 20.

Hmmm, how would those work with a server that is located in Dallas and I live in Arizona???

Those are not what I needed.

I already have a backup drive, it just stop backing up the site and I didn't know it.

COM · 06-26-2008, 06:34 PM

You're backup drive has failed. I do daily backups on my company-issued PC per policy (doing it right now boss) and I have had several different types of backup drives fail. They usually only last about 6 months and I'm only backing up about 100GBs. This is typical fail rate according to my peers and our IT people.

The LaCie that TR mentioned is probably a one-button backup. You set it to backup whatever it is targeted to and all that you have to do is push a button or use scheduling software. At my office the IT people use them (or something similar) to back up our SAP NetPoint databases. The office is in New Jersey, the server farm is in Virginia. I don't exactly know how it works but it can be done. TR?
