Hosting glitch

Post by Big Kev »

Hi all,

I think the hosts have had a blip over night and lost 2 months of posts. Probably a server fail and restored the last backup they had from around May 18th.

We're looking in to it.

Could possibly be my fault for not reading an email. :(

I am heading off on holidays today, so sadly cant look into it til I get back.

I think so :(
Waiting for Norbs to get back from holiday to find out more. Luckily it's only a couple of months and not years worth if it is.

I've also noticed a white page after posting. I'm at my mum's right now as she's broken her hip but I'll be home in a week or so and I'll try and find out what the cause of that is. Probably also related to the hosting glitch.

I'll be honest, I dont hold out much hope. I wonder if that was part of the downgrade I asked for.

I will ask, but I am not going to spend hours worrying about it. If we were still doing 100 posts/day I would, but.... :shrug:

That's a shame, because I'm sure all my lost posts were brilliant, insightful and hilarious.

I think I've fixed the white screen after posting. Hopefully that will reignite the posting. It's been a bit quiet!

Sorry for taking a while, with my mum breaking her hip I've been rather busy!
