I love how people have been signing up here, not with their old names, say 'Hi' and expect us to know who they are ... Word up to keeping our names.

It shouldn't take TWO DAYS to restore the forum?...restoring a database takes just a few minutes...

Yeah, I suppose they have to find the back-up tape for the right server, restore that first, but that is a 2 hour job max. The forum still seems f**ked, anyone know the current situation please enlighten us.

Sorry for the conitnued dely.
The back-up is restored and is perfect. Now a new problem has arisen according to the hosts software we are using 446mb of space whilst we are allowed 50mb, and because of this i think the software wont allow us to run any scripts (e.g. the forum). We are not using 446mb and i have emailed the hosts to look into this, but they always taKe about 8 hours to reply. I have already threatned not to pay the $100

never mind 2 hours for a restoration, they take 24 hours to respond to a simple question, i am f**king pissed, but i wont take it out on them until theyve actually fixed it.

I say just make a brand new board. On a different host, and with phpBB. You'll be able to make your own backups of the board any time.

A new host sounds like a good idea, these guys sound like f**king jokers. Maybe we should go the whole hog with maybe new forum software and even a new logo ... ?

That's what I'm proposing, get phpBB, currently the best freeware forum, very much like vBulletin but totally free and is being developed all the time.
