The site blew up!
« on: 18 February 2012, 14:19 »
The server took a nosedive yesterday around 12pm, I've tried asking jv's hosting company but can't get much sense out of them. I think the server suffered a power failure, which lead to a few database tables becoming corrupt (private messages being one of them).I recovered as much as possible and have got things back on-line, but apologies for the downtime (not that its my fault! I wish I'd noticed it earlier though)

If you're wondering what I have to do with this, I've been helping with server administration and I'm one of a few with access to fix this.

Happy Forum'ing.

Use google chrome, that has built in spell check!
