you know - there is a reason why The Black Iron Prison had its name changed to The Discordian Network...

But apparently there no reason for the server center not setting us up the backup files.

Actually, I've just recently been informed that if I want to pony up the dough to have the files restored/saved/whatever, that they'll send me a back-up.  I'm going to get a price quote and as long as it isn't too cost prohibitive I'll do it.  But, obviously, I will not restore the forum.  If I get it I'll post stuff to this sub-forum. 

do-never deal with attheforums.

Or, always make a backup.

[AFK]

that's why you don't deal with attheforums.  They don't let you make back-ups.  Or at least, when you contact them to ask for a back-up, they don't write you back.

those fuckers

thats a little too convenient for my head to let it just slip by

They wouldn't even respond to my questions for general help on running the damn thing.  I had to rely on Bella and Daniel for pointers.  (Which I greatly appreciated in case either are watching!)  :-D

It would be an awful shame if I didn't get a timely response for them and I, say, posted their e-mail address and a bunch of angry BIPers flooded them with e-mails demanding the release of their intellectual property.   :-D

[LMNO]

That would be terrible.

heaven forbid their baby gets shook

Apparently there's some way to dump forums offsite, without relying on the hosts. I'll ask my mate when I see him tomorrow night if that's any use to ya. Sourceball forums were a hacked version of phpbb but I'd expect smf should have the same feature.
