Hey man I got an idea...

[Agamemnus]

if you lost any data on the news board you can make a troll to troll the google.com cached pages archive. Or Chaoticmass. I think he's good at making trolls.

I don't know where this Db is located, but can't wildcard make some backups of the entire forum database each day?

[Hexadecimal Disaster]

Yes. He can. But he didn't. Is that hard to understand?

[wildcard]

Yes. He can. But he didn't. Is that hard to understand?

I couldn't download the 14 megs, first reason was I'm on dial up. And secondly fling-master tried on his cable connection and they server kept dieing off at just under 8megs. I've since learnt of the existence of mysqldump and will use that to make server side backups.

You can also get backups using phpMyAdmin in a easy way. But things happen, and if the data is lost, well, it's lost. In this case hackers scrambled everything. In my case these assholes at coolfreepages terminated my account without warning. Both of us lost data... but life's still going on, so what's the point discussing about backups and the such. Everything's lost. We'll start again.
