Restore completed

[MP Guy]

We are back up with a restore from 2 days ago on the post and threads table only.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Just think of it as RFF being closed for the weekend.

 

[FrankS]

Bummer, lots of good stuff lost over the last 2 days.

But thanks for the maintenance to keep RFF going strong.

How about PM's sent in the last day but not picked up, are they still there or gone too?

 

[FrankS]

The "Are photographers loners?" thread was a good one.

 

[CameraQuest]

why the restore

why the restore

An unknown number of files and threads were corrupted and missing.

The thread restore as of Aug 2 restored the missing threads, but we lost all posts between the restore and this morning.

Galleries, classifieds, and PM messages were not affected.

Finally!
Was getting worried about this Restore that keep "things" online forever...
The inconvenient thread is gone...
See how good is digital! Never exist before! Vanished! No paper to track or shred!

No History, so, no learning! No trackable either....


Keep up the good work!! Seriously!

Too bad that "my funniest comment" occurred yesterday!
Glad that RFF is back now.

I have to make a point to be funny again!

Hey, Frank, I missed that one as I have been rather busy lately. Since it's apparently lost, can you summarize it in some fashion which perhaps will trigger further commentary?

Thanks,
Randy

Yesterday never happened. No evidence of yesterday at RFF exists (galleries, classifieds...details details) 😀

Somehow it's Saturday afternoon all of the sudden...

 

[MP Guy]

The restore did not affect gallery or classifieds. It only affected threads and posts. And for the record, it's Tuesday afternoon right now.

Gabriel,
So we lost two days of our lives!
Can this loss ever be compensated?
Could a free Bessa R2 or R3 or a CV lens make up such a terrible memory loss?

I wonder ...

 

[Ken Ford]

Down the memory hole we go...

 

[reagan]

CLA of Zorki.6 thread ... gone. Lots of work; detail and pics. And I think I remember

a thread where Stephen was giving away free CV lenses ...and stuff ...right?

 

[Ken Ford]

And where Joe decided to sell all his RF gear for a Canon DigiReb and a case of Molson... right?

[FrankS]

Such is the nature of existence: all is transitory and impermanent. 😛

 

[Al Patterson]

The "Are photographers loners?" thread was a good one.

I was too busy being a loner to participate in that one...

Too bad I missed some of it.

So you're not disputing the Molson part?

 

[back alley]

molson is now owned by coors and they just closed down the brewery here in edmonton.
gotta love foreign investment...

even with the backup i am still content.

Gabriel,
So we lost two days of our lives!

And without the use of drink or drugs. Wow, this interweb thing is amazing 😀
