quote:You might not be surprised to learn that there were some missing pieces in SA's infrastructure. Perhaps most appallingly among those, there had not been a database replica server running for several years. Further, if the site had a backup process in place before, it must have lived on that missing replica; there did not seem to be anything configured. You read that correctly—for many years, these forums were one malformed shell command, bad SQL query, or hardware failure away from vanishing in a puff of magic smoke.

Dante posted:Thanks for taking on the task of stewarding these forums into a new and better era. Even after the lowtax implosion I was skeptical that it could be turned around, but the forums are making great strides I think. I don't have anyone in particular in mind, but I hope that there's some process of reversing the bans of the many posters that got hit with lowtax grudge bans and other dumb things like that (while keeping the terrible people out). This has been going on, pm a mod or admin if you think someone has been missed.
