Hey Damienites! Just to let you guys know, there has been a glitch this morning involving our board. We have no information as to what caused this problem yet. Now the board is back, but the information we have dates back to Feb only. We are still trying to salvage our newer information. Until we hear back from proboards I'd like for only the one thread to be used. That thread can be found ---- Here ---- We will be locking the others. Sit tight and lets hope our data can be brought back to us Neski and Mod Team.

Update: We have heard back from proboards. There was an error, and our information since our last update has been lost. They can't find their back up, and we don't have one either. So what will happen is this:- The mod team will be gathering recent information, and posting it back to the board. We will try to get as much as possible. We'll be unlocking some threads for you guys to use But basically the Damien HQ section will be closed until we get the info up there. Hopefully we should get it done in as little time as possible. I'm going to be updating our skins and smileys as well, so we won't have to go without those. As for new members. We are not sure if their accounts are still with us. Please, if you have signed up with us since february, inform us and sign up again.

Members of DLO. Thank you for waiting so patiently today. The moderating team and I have put together some of the more recent and hot topics we know you would like to get back to discussing, these being the albums, the tour dates, the concert threads in C&A, appearances, and a picture or two. Now we would like to extend the chance for YOU to help build up our information and resources. If You know something is missing that we had before, say an internet link, picture, appearance etc, would you please post it in --- Restoration Thread--- and we will review and check it off as we go along. The reason for this is we would like it to be a double-up free time right now and know you are all eager to jump back into chatting away at each other Thank you Neski and Mod Team

We finally have an update as to what happened today. It appears this was a proboards fault. here is a reply from the Administrator on Proboards... Your security wasn't breached, nor was it anything done via your forum. It would have been something that we did, like moving the board from one directory to another.
There's nothing to worry about on the security side of things, it's just an unfortunate event. Thanks again for your patience and support guys ;D

Why wouldn't/don't they backup before they freaking start these upgrades? Obviously for them to restore everything up to Feb they have the capacity

There was a problem with our file folder. It was replaced (we don't know how) with another one of the same name, except this one was a blank, therefore it overrid our data. I don't know why they haven't got recent back ups but they don't. The important thing is that we're back and getting back to our usual business. I realise it will take maybe a bit of time to get the feel back into it, even if it means having repeat conversations ( ).

Well done mods, everything looks normal again and I hope Proboards can fix their system so that this doesn't happen again. And Neski I hope you've finally had something to eat.

Eeeeek! I've been in bed with the flu for the last couple of days and when I logged into DLO yesterday it was like Groundhog Day! What a nightmare for everyone. Well done Neski and Mods for getting us on track again.
The two most recent tutorials I posted in the Graphics Alert forum have been lost but I'll endeavour to get them back up asap. If anyone has these tutorials printed would you let me know so that I can compare my notes with the final tutorial. Ta.
