LONG STORY

Thank god i backed up yesterday!!!

Ok, all posts from 3pm onwards yesterday are gone until 5 minutes ago which is not too bad. Apologies to the posts last night.

If anyone remembers who they helped or what they posted I'm sorry but if you remember please re post them.

I got an email from my provider that said we were just about to run out of memory so I upgraded to the next plan. Rushing as always I upgraded but it upgraded to an entirly new server. I rung up and the person said you cannot restore the old database and you have lost EVERYTHING!!!

I freaked out but thank god i backed up yesterday at 3pm after reading the stories about other forums loosing data...lol

I could'nt restore the forum the normal way because this forum exceeds the memory to do the normal back up so my provider had to set up new codes and systems to enable a large restore thing...bla bla bla.

Anways, it looks ok and this is a huge relief for me. You wouldn't believe how stressed I was today!!!

I have spent over 5 hours on the phone, trying all different things bla bla bla.

Sorry guys, It's amazing how one little button could potentially ruin everything!!!!

[AB]

Everytime someone tried to log in i would get an email error sent to my email addres....I now have 2768 emails in my inbox...lol....Thats great though!!!

Thanks guys, if you see anything not working just yell out!
