The board was MOVED because the most up-to-date backups of the old board Acmlm has access to are 4 mounths old. Meaning if what you want was less than four months old, you cannot get it. If it is more than four months old, Acmlm might be able to get it for you. | |||

The four month old backups are restored. The archive should be online eventually... sooner than later. |

So...what all will this do then? Bump-up post counts and restore a number of threads, or what else? | |||

And it probably won't bump up the post counts, seeing as Acmlm said when he asked weither or not to move the board was that everyone would be knocked back to square one. | |||

No, you won't be allowed to post PERIOD. I'm unsure whether you'd even be able to log in - possibly to view private messages, but that would be about it - editprofile.php would be locked I'd assume. |

I personally think that being knocked back to square one is bullshit - I worked DAMN fucking hard for 11k, and now I can't even use my custom title anymore. EDIT: Hell, did I say 20k? I wish (edited by Melvin on 03-25-04 12:08 AM) |

Hopefully we can get PM's, I have a few that I sorta need. And a few things that I need to back-up in the SF and SB. PS: I agree with Melvin. (edited by Anya on 03-25-04 12:04 AM) |

20000? More like 11000 ... and what about me with my 38953 that I'll never get back? I'm not even at 38953 EXP here yet Yeah, the backup will be viewable eventually ... I just have to lock it properly (no posting, but also no registering, editing, etc.) so everything stays intact, but yeah, you still won't be able to see anything from less than 4 months ago ... And no, I'm not restoring anything from the backup, even with a full list of almost final post counts and user id's saved somewhere (from 03-11-04 in the morning) |

Oh! Another good question - when will everyone be remodded, and are you picking any new mods? | |||

Originally posted by Melvin You know, seriously, why do you people care about your post counts? It's a number. A fucking number. All it ever does is go up. It has no signifigance. Why the hell is posting 2000 posts a milestone? Doesn't it make more sense to consider a milestone a point when someone becomes better at something or overall smarter? If I made a script that posted 2000 randomly-generated posts in a useless thread, I get a custom title for it? What does 11,000 posts mean to anyone? Are you going to put it on your resume or something? It just sits there. It symbolizes nothing. The number has no bearing on what you've done here. All I have to say about people asking "R THERE GOING TO BE MORE MODS! WILL I B 1?" is that policing the expressions of a few hundred people is not a matter to be laughed at. Anyone who jumps at modhood probably doesn't understand the responsibility that comes with it. (edited by witeasprinwow on 03-25-04 12:20 AM) |

Yeah, and it's something that I worked hard for for two years. Are you saying that you can't understand the notion of being angry over losing something you spent that much time and energy on? | |||

witeasprin: amen. moderating a board pretty much boils down to grunt work. now administrating a board... that's the fun part but I agree with what you said; most people want the power that comes with an moderating/administrating position, but not the responsibility. they, as the saying goes, want to have their cake available but eat it too. melvin: well, if your post count means something to you, then, sure. but I don't see what's so important about it.

Originally posted by Melvin I laughed when I read this. The notion of "working hard" to get a large postcount is entirely absurd. It's similar to building a robot that kicks its creator in the groin. I can't really judge that it's effort wasted, but any logic or sanity is clearly absent from the situation. |

...oddly enough, I just sorta shrugged when the board went down. I doubt that would've changed regardless of how many posts I had (around 2500 at the time, actually). | |||

I'll only really use the backup to get a few links and stuff that I don't have anymore, but it will be fun to go back to it in a year or so to see how it was back then. I don't care about my post count, or having a custom title. I'll just get one again later, or I'll get one a different way.. (edited by Jack-Al on 03-25-04 12:50 AM) |
