Shit I lost everthing. I had only just become a member a couple of weeks ago, and I had to re-register. All my posts are gone and all my U2U's.
:cry Time to start a fresh. Hopefully everthing is sorted now.

it had to happen. there was a crash in the sysytem, and it was decided that it was better to lose a weeks or so of datat, than all the history. this way threads like dasdubbers could be saved. when you look at his thread youwill understand.

hey brett, welcome mate. it doesnt happen very often, so dont be put off... jsut unfortunate timing.

The forum had to be restored as the hoster had a full disk, which corrupted the database.

We have been restored to the last full backup, which is Feb 5.

Thanks again for all the good work keeping this forum on line Andrew (and all the other mods).

I'm sure it soaks up a bit of your spare time.
