Coming back home after the forum purge

[ElAcechador]

I must have been gone for a long time, I used to be a regular here up until a few years ago and now it's like I don't have an account anymore. I take it it has something to do with the new forum system?

Oh, well! It's good to be back nonetheless.

That's what happens whan you have no back-ups.

Welcome back and...shit happened making old forum go west. But Gedan saying this one won't go down so easy so enjoy and be active again.

A "few years ago" would probably get pruned, anyway.

[MESeele]

Not threads...people.

It's often both, but it depends on the forum software.


Who knoooows.

Yeah Ace, long story short, my old host went out of business and the messages they sent out about it went into my spam folder. Thus, I had no idea my server was going away until it vanished off the face of the planet entirely.

There are two types of people: one who don't do backups yet and ones who already do.

What about people who eat pineapple ice cream? Or who play halo? So many types of people.
