HI folks the server that hosts the site completely died including the Hdd's and backups.

Luckily i create an offsite backup once a week! this has now been restored so we have lost a few days posts.

im still fixing things at the moment so bear with me and im still working on all images 90% are fine the others im working on now

we are now using a backup solution

And thank you too for letting us know what's been going on, like on the error page while the forum was out of action and your message at the top of this page.

Let's all be patient please as things may not be back 100% and give Warren the space to do his job. Many thanks all.

if only trouble is the forum is over 50GB compressed this is why i can only do weekly offsite backups and right now there are no backups being done as i haven't had chance yet
