    Yes... there was a problem with all of the forums Alex hosts and he's been working like a dog day and night to get it resolved. I'll let him give you all the bloody details.

    The PTB decided the SC's have to go down! But they left all the other sites up. I guess the tinfoil palace it too far out to be a danger to them!

    I'm sure Alex will be back when he can to give us the down and dirty details, but from what he said over on SusCo, his MySQL bit the dust and it was bad. His other forums were more affected than these two. He may have lost literally many thousands of posts and not a few subscribers' details.

    He's going to need a few drinks when this is over.

    If you guys knew what he was up to at the moment, which is a herculean task, to be sure, to save the forum from being nuked, you'd be amazed. Go Alex!!

    That's why he's our leader.

    Seriously, thank you Alex. I can't imagine how you manage to do it all.

    performance will be sluggish while we are doing the restore of the hunting sites.

    It puts a beating on the machine... ANY machine...

    Sorry... it should be temporary though.

    no chat will come back along with my other mods... but I will need to reinstall all of them one and time this week.
    need to focus on getting all the sites rebuilt first and then on to the details.

    I see alot of users but few posts. Just want to make sure the site is working.. Seems a-ok but need to ask.

    And speed issues are because we are still restoring 2 million posts to the hunting forums :-(

    Another long night.
