    Exclamation Forum Backup Files

    UPDATED:

    Hey, everyone,

    As you may know, we had some major issues for a couple of months, after which the forum seems to have gone back to "normal". However, despite things running at what looks like full speed, we still don't have all of the old threads that disappeared a while back.

    Regardless, as I've mentioned before, I have an old backup file from a little before the threads disappearing and I am making current backups. I am now uploading the backups to my Google Drive here:

    TFSF - Google Drive

    The old backup has most of the missing threads, but there is a time gap between the old update file and new one, so there are definitely threads missing that will not be recovered unless Hostboard's techs figure out why those threads, which are visible on their servers, aren't able to be publicly accessed.

    Thanks!

    In the meantime, I'll be posting backup files for the forum for all of you to download. One file is from a while back and has a vast majority of the "missing" threads. The other file is brand new. Here is the link:

    WeTransfer

    THE LINK EXPIRES. This one expires July 10th, 2018.

    I will try to update the link (via responses) as much as I can.

    You have our sincere apologies for this craziness.

    Re: Forum Backup Files

    Hey hey. Took me a long while to get in to download the latest backup. Anyway, here's the link to the backups:

    WeTransfer

    NOTE: Link expires August 4, 2018

    ALSO, we are in the process of moving over to Google Groups! The link is here:

    Google Groups

    I will also be loading the backup files to the new forum, so if you don't see an update here after a link expires, check over on Google.

    Re: Forum Backup Files

    Happy New Year, everyone! I'm back from my vacation / important family thing. I just want to let you all know that I've been continually backing this forum up as often as I can. I've uploaded my most recent backup to my Drive at the link above and below. I also have previous backups on there if you want to look through them for some reason. I hope you all find these useful. :-)

    Re: Forum Backup Files

    Given the admin messages regarding HB shuttering given virus and $$ issues, is there a chance one of the moderators could post a forum backup?

    Honestly it would probably be a good idea regardless, there hasn't been a backup in a year plus.

    Shame to see things lost, though the circumstances are understandable.

    Thanks
