Sorry, guys. This annoys me, too. Not only did I lose all my work on "The Devil's Own", but my "Far Cry" page is gone, too (although that one had no screencaps yet).

Guys, DON'T DO ANY MORE UPDATES!!!!! When Bunni restores the archival page, he will have to do it from the time just before the server outage. That means you'll lose whatever changes you make now. Wait until Bunni can restore the system.

Only when we have affirmation that he cannot restore what was lost (unlikely), then consider making any changes now.

I lost VIP, Barb Wire and a few other movie pages, so everyone has lost something.

We're on top of it - I have the admin team looking at it. We transferred to a new server last night which should make the site much faster but they seem to have used an old backup or the restore failed mid-way through. We have multiple nightly backups stored on and off site so we haven't lost anything. We're working on it! Thanks for the understanding guys.

Best,
Chris

Image files synched - we're back up and running to where we were as of this morning 3:30am or so. We lost a dozen or so edits from the last 12 hours.

Thanks for hanging tough guys - we certainly learned our lessons from the horrific crash of last year - and the backups are now frequent.

Best,
Chris

I'm not looking forward to redoing pages, as I'm sure evryone else isn't. It's fun the first time but it loses its touch the second.

Makes me wish I didn't do so much this week.

Thanks for working hard to fix the problem Chris, hope everything still works right.

Cool, Absolute Power is back!

How much more can we expect to return?
