Forum Problems

[rubyug]

What are the biggest problems that ever occurred to your site.

My forum was deleted.... twice.

Data loss back when my forum was hosted on FreeForums.org - We lost more than half of our members and nearly all our posts.

That sucks....

We got all our regular posters back.

Yer, i closed my forum shortly after the data loss. But we re-opened on November 1st with 58 members and we now have 320 members and were on paid hosting.

🙂

The biggest problem that has occurred to this site with the host we were with being suspended meaning i had to restore a back up of the files and database on another host and sort out the domain and hope everything will work as i couldn't check if the database had restored properly or if the config files for the forum/topsite where right. I had to do this really late at night aswell when i was half asleep.

My forum was deleted.... twice.

Was that because your forum was against your hosts TOS or was it just lost because your host was crap.

When my LunarPages account got suspended and my site lost all the traffic we were getting. I actually stopped visiting the site for about a month, then started it up again.

I installed a custom-created rep system onto Land Of Gaming.
It was so corrupted I had to clean out three of its forums. -redface-

My forum used to have really massive spambot problems. But those have all cleared up now.
