Things were quite hectic around home...

and I was getting rather tired of working with SQL databases.

We are back to 9/05/2006, that was the latest db that I had on hand.
So lets bring some life back into our community.

It's nice to have the forum back online. Hope you take more frequent backups this time.
By the way, what happened exactly ? An unhappy user who was deleted maybe ?

An unhappy ex-partner who deleted the entire
database and the backups.

thanks for all your hard work, jkf. I thought the problem might have been with your ISP or hosting fees, so I'm sorry to hear an ex messed you and your hard work around.

if there's anything we can do to help you out in future, please say so. We owe you big time.

I see the old backup reinstated the members who were deleted. They probably don't know it though.

Actually the posts are from 9/5 and I took the additional ~500 names
from the 7/24 backup and added them in manually.

I wasn't feeling too swift in late July and Aug so I didn't download the
backups and left them in the repository, which was cleaned out.

Well, they didn't know they got axed... and within a week, there
was a "we've been hacked" notice on the front page, so they might
have just thought that they couldn't log in because the site was down.
And in any case, they were the 0 posters and the occasional visitors
that go wiped out so they may eventually find they their way back,
but we are not begging for them to come back... LOL

I can't say enough about this forum, it's the greatest! I'm glad jkf (and whoever helped also), got us back together again. I had thought that some hacker wiped us out.
Thanks again for all your hard work. Wink
