Ok, buzix decided to switch machines on me. They however negelected to tranfer the current database over so we lost 5 days of data.

After talking with tech support for a day or so, we have at least most of it sorted out.

I have a gut feeling posts are missing. There is a HUGE gap in the forsale forum. I'm just all sorts of pissed off about that but its just not worth ripping what little hair I have left out.

If they just told me they were switching machines....

Needless to say, I'm shopping for a new hosting provider.

Bah, damn cowboys! I cannot believe the various levels of ineptitude among ISPs. Is it so hard to take a damn data backup before you switch servers? Perhaps even notify your valued customers.

What? Huh? Where are those Doritos?

Thats cool I didnt even notice a difference good job Paul.

Hey there Paul!

Trust in your guts man! You're absolutely correct. There are posts missing.

I know this 'cuz I went to check out my threads to review some info, and to my dis-appointment, the site was down.

However, I'm happy to see that it's back.

Upon going to review my threads, the info I required was no longer there. And there's an entire thread that I posted missing in the 1st/2nd gen forum that I had hoped someone would've responded to.

Bummer that this glitch happened. Glad you were on the case to bring it back to us nonetheless.
Thanks Paul.
G.

Big "oh well" on that one. I was wondering what was up.

Hey Paul, I could use some funds to get me a nice CSM again. May I come over and mow the lawn for you for a few bucks?

icdsoft has been a great host for me and a phpBB board.

I perform a backup weekly (at least).

It might not be money in hand, but ....
