I can't understand anyone who simply damages things without any sense.

It happened in 2005, I can't find any saved pages on my computer.

Ahhh. I see now. If I remember correctly, something went wrong with the database during their migration of old forums and we lost most of the forum. Then we ("we" as a community) just moved to an all new dedicated domain and forum that the admins have full control over.

Wow, this would have to be a record for thread necromancing on this forum.

Sup, topics like this one can probably be brought up in the Off Topic thread - I'm not sure it warrants its own thread.

From what I recall it was a disgruntled employee that sabotaged the ezBoard database, including backups.

I always thought that was the final straw in the decision to move the community here, but reading the Computer World article above, the attack was around 2 years before the move. Was there another smaller scale attack\disruption in 2007 prompting the move, or have I just remembered very poorly?

Dude, you aren't like... an evil twin who split from me at some point in our history, are you? Like, as if you're the side of me who did those kind of things? You seem to be pretty damn sure about what caused it, after all... :P
