Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're back.

Quicker than I expected, too. I'm sure there will be some hitches here and there, but it looks like I've restored the forums, everyone's accounts, everyone's posts, everyone's avatars, our smileys... the whole 9. Let me know as you find bugs, of course, but in the mean time... tear it up!

Do you want the bad news or the bad news?

The ongoing saga of Taco's fucked up webhost and subsequent migration: the backups I've made of the forums database are all corrupt. I can't restore the forums to include the accounts & posts. I'm going to have to do a clean install.

Fuck. I really really fucking hate my old webhost.

Folks who use my website, please read this

I can't post it there because in a nutshell, my webhost sucks ass. And a good chunk of the guys I need to notify read this filth too :)

My site is down for the bazillionth time, and I've had it with them. I'm getting a new webhost tonight. I've already picked them out, and will be signing up as soon as I get home. I've backed up all my data, and will start getting it migrated to the new service tonight. Once I have everything migrated to the new site, I'll formalize the migration and cut the old guys loose.

There'll probably be a few days where you can't use my site. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience, but once it's done, things should hopefully be a lot more reliable.

On the bright side, the bulk of this should fall across the weekend, when the site's mostly dead anyway.

Sorry for the trouble. Please bear with me.
