Our blogs are gone

Postby adventrue » 2012-10-16, 10:57

Can I have my unilang blog back???
It is gone, and all my writing on it with it... And other people's blogs are also not available.
Is someone working on this? It has been two months at least!

I've noticed this, too. I haven't heard any explanation so far.

Have either of you tried sending a PM to a forum admin, like Bugi, or a developer, like zeme, or the person in charge: proycon? They are far more likely to see a message sent to them rather than a post on one of the many boards.

I asked about this problem here

http://www.unilang.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=29573

but was completely ignored. It does not look as if anyone here is interested in sorting out this problem. :pissed:

What do we do now?
Any computer buffs around who at least can dig out our writing from somewhere?

On 29 or 30 June 2012, the UniLang server suffered a disk failure which necessitated the switching of servers. The site was down for several days. Fortunately the crash did not affect the messages posted on the forum; when the site was back up on another server, all messages and PMs were restored. However, several features, including the search function, were still unusable. It took a while before things were back to normal.

It was the crash that took away our blogs. I don't know if our blogs are now irrecoverably lost, or whether they can still be recovered but nobody here is bothering to do anything about it. :hmm:
