Back to the Issue at hand....

I am sure we could have resolved the situation without resorting to such a manner and my thread is not stupid. I am not stupid that Is why I am here today working for ALL OF US
But it is nothing to get mad over. What are we going to do about thes hackers? Where are the backups and where is the master disk? We should always keep master disks.
I am going to back up the forum (just in case) once i get some more zip disks ok? Mister Lad is on the case! So in the mean time we find the culprit and solve the crime before time (is up)

Everything time the site explodes the staff gets together and says OKAY WE CAN'T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN. YOU, BACK UP THE FORUMS MONTHLY. YOU, BACK UP THE GAMES MONTHLY. YOU, BACK UP /AWESOME MONTHLY.
And then we all back things up once and never again because what are the odds it will happen again.

Well, we could set up some automated backup system type of thing. Shouldn't be too hard.

people made your thread stupid

noone said you were stupid.
If you value something (like /awesome) back it up.
Things like the archive should probably be autosaved though. I don't know how it's done, but it might be easier to somehow make a script with a link in the admin page that could download the whole site or certain parts (how big is it anyways?)

i'd be happy to make monthly backups of zultimate and/or ircman once they're back up and running, too

Fine! If it's not so hard, then make it yourself, Mr. Big Pants!
