I had the account upgraded to more server space, more bandwidth and the ability to do a few more things that I wanted. So here was the plan:
- Host to creat new area on the better server to move to.
-I would move files over, setup the new database and so on.
- When finished, I would let then know and they would delete old and point Planet4x4 to the new area.
What really happened:
- Set it up over the phone on Friday
- Decided to make a database backup after I hung up just to be safe.
- Host deleted old webspace Friday evening with no notice. This blew away everything including email address like mine.
- Host setup new area with a totally different password. I cannot get in.
- Spend two hours on phone with host because they are a boat of retards.
So the short of it is: Any posts past around 1 or 2 pm on Friday are lost. I pulled the last file backup about Tuesday so most pics and attachments made it. You may notice some PM's gone but I have not finished restoring those yet along with some other stuff.
I should have everything solid tonight or at the latest, tomorrow morning.
Sorry for the inconvienence. :?
