| You may be referring to the recent loss of posts that the Forum experienced. I will do my best to explain just what happened. The Adventures of Link & Friends is currently hosted on a rather volitile and unreliable server. Given that Link And Friends receives a high volume of traffic, this complicates the problem. Occasionally, the Forum Database is lost, because of a glitch in the Web Host's file-writing process. In turn, all of the information in the LAF Database was lost. Wolfenhex was forced to upload a backed up copy of the database to the server. Unfortunately, this backup was a few days old, so some recent posts vanished. The lost posts cannot be recovered. However, things are in the works to minimize future problems, and hopefully prevent them altogether. On behalf of Wolfenhex, Charybdis, The Adventures of Link & Friends, and the crappy host upon which this site is hosted, I apologize for any inconvenience that this issue has caused. P.S. The best way to correct the server's problems is to move to a new, better host. Preferrably, a premium host with redundant or dedicated servers.

| Yes this has happened before. (Refer to my thread "Messed Up") Hex had to go and redo the entire forum and posts for months, but he got it fixed. So just give him some time and I'm sure we will all have most of our old posts back. At least this isnt like last time where 2 months worth of posts were deleated and we all droped down 2 ranks or so. | ||||||
Bow to the queen vampire of all!!! Wa ha ha! | |||||||
