Hi Kevin

I assume you are putting in all this work free of charge or at less than minimum wages so I want to say that I am thankful for the work you are doing.

Robbie: If my memory serves me right I think we had passed 11000 posts so I think nearly 2000 posts have been lost.

Luckily the biggest asset on this board are the people posting. Judging by how helpful people have been in the past I'm sure they will answer the questions again if they are asked.

Regards

Popol Vuh,

Your correct, what little ad $ goes to skyecom.net to go towards the month cost of hosting the site. I certainly don't make money on this site, but I do get the satisfaction, and pleasure (as anyone would out of a hobby) in maintaining this site.

Hi Robbie,

I can't say that this couldn't happen again, but I did move the database to another server. Prior to this problem, I had the dukewayne database on a non-production server, now it's on the server I use for commercial clients. The non-production server had a hardware failure which caused the loss of data here.

Plus, the site back up has been changed from weekly, to nightly, so I should have access to a back up of this site that is no more that 24 hours old.

When I found out what happened I was sick . In fact I turned off my PC and went straight to bed.
