Yup, things got pretty scary for awhile.
Not sure what happened yet but Monday night about 9:45 my time (AZ) I got a call from TX Sheepdawg telling me the forum was gone.
I checked and he was right, the forum was completely gone, it was wiped clean from my website.
The company I buy space from had a back-up from sunday and tried it last night with no success.
When I went to sleep things looked iffy, when I woke up and called again to find there was no answer to what had happened and why, I really got worried.
I checked later in the day and found we were up and running with a back up from Monday. I checked on the one new guy that was approved and found he was here so I was happy.
The email I got from my web space company just said we were up and running, but there was no explanation as to what happened. I called them again and they said there is an investigation going on and I will bet answers when they have them.
So, we are lucky. the S went and HTF here and we survived, but I need to find out ways to make sure that if this happens and there is no way to bring up back then we won't lose all the info here. I'm talking to a friend that does this for a living about solutions.
Sorry for the scare guys.
