Stupid !@#^$#$ host screwed up the DB again last night

Post by amstel78 »

It was supposed to be simple:

1. Go back to 21 October;
2. Restore old "knights" folder and rename it something else, like "knights_restored"
3. Do NOT under any circumstance overwrite the current "knights" folder (which this updated forum resides in)

No.... those assclowns overwrote the original folder corrupting the DB in the process. So, instead of doing actual work that I'm supposed to be getting paid for, I'm having to fix iPower's screw-up.

As a result, I believe we had one new Knight sign up sometime late last night or early this morning. Well, the last good DB I was able to restore from was from the day prior, so all new users and private messages sent since then are gone.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience. Maybe I oughta sell this forum to someone else willing to take care of it, because honestly, I'm losing my patience.

I'll have to figure the video thing out.. I think it's slow to cache sometimes as the server is also going through Cloudflare to prevent hackers/spammers

I'll have a fix for the videos in a minute. The old BB tag for video won't work anymore with this version.
