Okay, the whole site was down yesterday because the server had some kind of RAID-related disaster, and the hosting company had to restore from last Sunday's backup a backup dated 17th April(!?). I should point out this is only their third outage in a year, and their worst yet.

Also, the reason the forum was deactivated last week was to conserve bandwidth. I'd rather have the forum unavailable for a couple of days than have the main site out of reach, since to go by the access logs a lot of people visit the site but not the forum. Actually, a lot of people are scared to visit the forum, on account of how much it resembles FYAD, but that's another story.... AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE

What's FYAD (and yes, I am a dumbass for asking. Thank you.)?

I got a better reply on the LJ CYD community for that very question. Go look there.

I don't know which disturbs me more, that the hosting company didn't have a more recent backup lying around , or that they've already had three outages this year.

It's like we've time-travelled back to a week ago and none of those threads ever happened.

If only I brought that Sports Almanac with me.

It is like some stuff never happened. I for one am glad that the whole drama with what's-his-face and Micah is gone.

Me?

Oh, and everything is fine as long as the Bible of ZenZhu is intact. All else can crumble to the furry horde, but the truth is real power.

I just applied to join that community. I'm known as EnsignMPLS there.

On a brighter note, welcome back. I was begining to try to find another way to get my fix.
