Title: Database corruption
Post by: Administrator on March 02, 2021, 08:02:56 PM

Hello folks,
Approximately half an hour ago, a forum database check failed.

The database was not repairable and so has been restored to the copy taken yesterday. As a result of this, posts made since the last backup have been lost.

If you've lost any posts made in the last 24 hours, please feel free to repost.

Additionally, if you joined the forum in the last 24 hours, your registration has also been lost - please feel free to re-register.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Hello folks,
Unfortunately the same problem has happened again and as such the forum has been restored to a backup taken approximately 20 hours ago. Any posts/registrations in that time have been lost.

To fix this going forward, we will move to another server over the weekend.

Apologies again for any inconvenience.

Sorry for the hassles on your end.  I assume your plate remains very full!
