Meh, That proves it again that you don't need to have brains to work in a datacenter btw

you know,I think this whole thing has a silver lining (at least for me.) I needed to reinstall phpbb anyway
Seriously though, I'm very sorry about the data loss. I've had it happen to me with my computer, lost 3 years of music with no way to get it back. Anyway, I am looking forward to getting my hosting back and rebuilding.

Hope the server is ok now.

Any further updates on the server ?

Well the bad thing in it is that I had many scripts there and they havent been backuped at my PC, so they are no more
Now I need write whole thing again, but nvm I guess admin's will make things work in few days and I am sure that we will not wait much for our accounts back

anyone else find it an odd coincedince that it went down on 9/11? just a thought.

You mean like the number 911 ? I think that this is stupid

CONSPIRACIES!
Or, not really.

I think this crash has taught some of us (well, at least it taught me) a valuable lesson: back up data.

Then again, a 160 gig hdd crash taught me that lesson a few years ago, and I still haven't backed up all my stuff. Oh well.

Good luck readding all the users!

I got taught the same thing back when 80gb was as large as a consumer could get...now I have 2x 320gb ones and I really don't have the resources to back them up...not that I could be bothered to anyway

Tim.. stay sharp No need to apologyze. I'm sure most of Phoenix's users are here because Phoenix provides a powerfull service through it's server. It could have happened to anyone.. so.. No Need to apologyze from my point of view.. We're just waiting ad hoping Infinity will be back up soon, since we miss it and need it

Cheers

pheonix is good. They have a kick ass service. Im still a little sad about this event. I had a good community on my forums and i lost all my data because i wasn't home for the last 2 months so i couldnt back up. Guess it's time to rebuild and start from scratch. Ive learned from this event and i'm sure PH has too. Keep up the good work, keep your head up.

whatever happens, i still keep the faith on Phoenix... For me Phoenix Network is the best!!! I know the staff is doing their best to serve people with wheir quality-best service on hostings.. I learned a lot from Phoenix too.... Well, as with other old members, im still waiting for my account to be reactivated.. Thanks Phoenix!! Phoenix Rules!!

The new user creation interface has just come online which of course means that moderators can once again create accounts.

Past users who have been active on the forums and/or IRC are welcome to come have a chat to any member of the administrative staff when we're on IRC to get their account readded. We will be checking your activity before this is done.

New users who have used the signup process will be processed as time permits, as was done before. In future we intend to remove this step however not just yet.

We apologize for any inconvienience this downtime has caused but it has allowed us to make some much needed changes to our network structure in preparation for our full release. Added users may notice that directadmin is no longer present, I'll explain that in my report this weekend, wait and see

Finaly everybody is happy !

Thanks for the update Tim and team (no rhyme intended, it just did).

Even though I do not have an account with you guys at the time of this post, I do feel that your work should not go without a good feedback, as it is not only good work, I am sure that every day, you guys do your best and probably stress about this subject every time you see a PC, or drink a cup of coffee... as I have lived through that and am empathic with that... /cheer /salute.
