Loss

[SummerMcLovin]

Is there going to be an RP announcement from the admin about "the great Neural Net crash of 822" so that everyone's story matches up?
Probably best not to powergame the blame onto any faction to avoid the Munich backlash onto Kusari, for example. Could maybe say it was some corruption left by the remnants of the Gallic Junkers (since they had the capability to copy the whole thing before Gallia was revealed) or maybe they had the backup.

EDIT - Is it safe enough now for us to go ahead and start fixing things via this method?

Confirmation about this from the wizards of the forums would be good. Losing any recovered and reposted stuff again for any reason would be really, really annoying.

Also advice for everyone - the method Jarl presented (kudos to him by the way) also partially works for threads which were not lost all, but some posts were. Just copy the url of the thread and hope google cached the posts so you can retrieve the text.

To recover at least parts of lost threads, members can try the following to find cached versions.

1. Go to your History.
2. Find the link to the thread.
3. Copy-Paste thread to Google Search.
4. The link that pops up will have in green text the web link and a green arrow pointing down next to it. Click that arrow and select "Cached"
5. Save whatever you can find!!

And by the way big kudos to Alley and everyone else who dedicated time and effort to fix the situation as soon as possible.

I´m not sure if it´s good idea to implement ooRP event into RP reality. Especially when some threads will be probably reposted or created again and just date will be set back to the original time inRP.

yes, forums are fine now.

Alley was right.

Thanks. One more question with no ill meaning behind it - do we have now enabled making of regular forum backups stored outside of the server, so situation like this won´t happen again?

[Alley]

I haven't got around doing it yet, but it will be done as soon as things are somewhat back in shape. I will handle it myself this time instead of asking someone to do it.

I'll drink for it... And (nerd) return to the work

This hopefully eases the pain a bit especially for those who had extensive stories going on.

If you have or are willing to use Chrome, there is an extension called

Cache Browser

that will pull the latest version of a page from the the Google cache if the link does not resolve.

This may or may not be useful, now that the site is up but will definitely be a help with most completely lost threads.

At least I studied like banned. Oh well. It was good while it lasted.
I'm not asking to be banned, no! I haven't reached that point, yet!

Thanks to the staff for restoring the stuff though. And to TheJarl for the cache hint.
