  1. The forums of RDN are now back up, but they had to be freshly installed. Sorry to say but the original Hard Drive was fried.. but it's back now for all those interested, but a new account will be needed.

    1. @mrdragon Oh yeah, we had those...

    2. @mrdragon Oh dear. No chance for file recovery?

      1. @ceruleanspark Nope, I'd have to pay £90 and head down to the midlands to pick up the hard drive then take it to a center to get it recovered. Better off not blowing money sadly :(

        1. @mrdragon Where in the midlands is it? I don't mind going to grab the disk for you if you want to avoid the travel.

          1. @ceruleanspark I'd do it myself but as I only pay £72 a month for the server I would just rather start from scratch then go through the hassle, the things done my head in enough! :P but.. oh well. New year, new start is what they say. So.. no errors, bugs or glitches :3

            1. @mrdragon Was there anything else on that machine?

              1. @ceruleanspark The forums my site and a friends site and... that was it really, nothing large other then the forum. They are looking at the Hard Drive right now, seeing what went wrong but they can't connect it to a machine without it forcing the machine to not boot. So my best guess is the disk's themselves have gone.

                1. @mrdragon If it took the whole machine offline, then unfortunately it does kinda sound that way

                  1. @ceruleanspark No, sadly it was a simple thing, I just got basic and that was the end of that story. Next month I'm raiding 2 250 gigs up so this shall never be a issue again. I learn from my mistakes, it cost's a extra tenner but it'll be worth it.

                2. @mrdragon Though doesn't the server have a RAID?

                  Friday, 30-Dec-11 23:49:35 UTC from web
    3. @mrdragon Aww, that's not good! Does that mean everything's lost? :(

      1. @pinhooves Mmhm, sad to say, but I've sent word to Sethisto to try and get word out we need our members back ^^

        1. @mrdragon Besides the forums needing to be started over again, how's everything going?

          Friday, 30-Dec-11 23:49:26 UTC from web
          1. @pinhooves I'm going ok, quite sleepy but no chance of sleep yet. Still quite annoyed about what happened with that Hard Drive, took us four hours to get anywere with it. I'll be fine, really need some food though..

            1. @mrdragon Taking a break would be a good idea. Don't want to tire yourself out.

              Friday, 30-Dec-11 23:52:37 UTC from web
              1. @pinhooves It's all up and running now, just a case of waiting for ponies to join back up

                1. @mrdragon I hope it won't take too long. :3

                  Friday, 30-Dec-11 23:54:15 UTC from web
                  1. @pinhooves It shouldn't :P

                    Friday, 30-Dec-11 23:55:55 UTC from web
    4. @mrdragon Hm! Don't think I ever went in there. With everything starting over, maybe I'll have to peek in now.
