Not sure where to go from this. Lost like ~5-6k posts and overall easy 50-100k posts gone. 

What exactly happened? So if all feedback’s etc gone. How will people trust the seller/buyer?

As far I know, Someone forgot to pay the server dues and also didn't have backup. So X days passed and hosting provider removed the data.

June 25: IVG goes down.

 

June 26: I meet Sam. I bring up that IVG is down. He didn’t know it was. He owns the site and manages the hosting.

 

June 30: site comes back after hosting charges were paid. Forums still offline.

 

June 30 to July 8: attempts were made to retrieve forum data, things got so bad that a new thread couldn’t even be created. Data deemed irretrievable.

 

July 8: We’re back.

How frequently the backups are saved in case of data loss ?

This post might turn unpopular real fast, but you guys need to find somebody more responsible. I think IVG has been down once before too for similar reason (non payment of hosting charges). 

 

I get it that people are busy with their work and personal life, but this is probably the biggest gaming forum in India, and the carelessness just shows the admin(s ?) don't care about the site much. I mean, setting Google reminders is not tough. Heck, we have this new tech where you can speak to Siri or G-Assistant and set up a reminder ! Shocking, I know.

It's not admin or admins. Only Sam has access to it. No one else. Unless he giveaway the hosting details, no one can do anything.

 

I don't see any reason for Sam not to handle over things to Ninja or some active admin as he is busy with other things and barely ever posts on forum. If Ninja wasn't active, god knows how long or if at all the forum would have recovered after this. 

 

Forum might not be huge like old Gaf or Reset but that's the charm of this forum. The community is small and active enough to keep up with games and other general stuff without constantly running into new posts every few seconds like other big forums.

 

I don't see the 1 year data getting recovered. The only solution is to make new threads again near game release and move on from here. That is hoping the forum doesn't go down again next month.

And that's why somebody who frequents the forum should keep a tab on these things and handle the day to day (or year to year issues in this case) challenges. 

 

P.S: The previous post was not dissing any admin. But it feels cheated when the forum dies due to somebody's apathy.
