Istvanistan's Off Topic has been laid waste by this problem. Just about all of the posts from this year are gone.

averything from the Duchy of Arminy archive, and most things from Lac Glacie's archive is gone too

[Gryphon the Pure]

So last night while we were all hopefully sleeping, Ari informed me of an EzBoard fuckup. For a long period of time, all reply requests were answered by a blank page full of error code and nothing else. It was indeed the suck.Boards are still having problems, and the error reports since midnight go back to Page 16 of the bugs forum right now.In addition to this, half the archives are showing up as empty, despite having several pages still.I swear I had nothing to do with any of this. I want answers as much as any of you.And I want somebody fired and/or burned at the stake for this, because if those notices are true and the posts cannot be restored, we're in a state of holy fuck.Someone raise the terror alert?Ow. Rant Ow. Can't stop talking or it will sink in. Fuck.P.S. Let us all share a moment of silence in remembrance of the *wistles* that were.

It seems very few of the pubs escaped this failure. I know that p094 seems to have escaped it as my board on that pub is still working fine and with everything entact (knock on wood). p202 seems to be fine and p220 is back up though having archive problems (micronational boardwise).

[Osman Shahanshah]

There has been a massive loss of data in Babkha. We don't know what will occur but alternatives to a full restoral are limited.

[VA Foghorn]

... which is why I thank almighty Bob for phpbb.

[Liam Sinclair]

The majority of Gotzborg's forums appear to be entact though I've now counted half a dozen affected by the crash. Two of those happen to be our primary government forums unfortunately. I highly recommend that micronationalists who maintain a cache in their browser switch to offline and see what threads from the affected micronations you may be able to save. There's a good chance that a lot of boards will never get fully restored, either because Ezboard won't be able to do so, or because those boards don't have CSC and thus cannot request a restore.

[Emperador Augustin]

Minorca has been wiped blank. As has the PRH.Heads SHALL roll. : -->:">

[Draco the Tainted]

Not exactly clean. You've still got a little Colonia in your archive.But yes. I think if ever there was a case where micronations need to stop taking bullshit from crappy macronational corporations, it is now. EzBoard will fix it or we should fix EzBoard. Heil Loki!!!
Heil H'Graa!!!

[Emperador Augustin]

I told Johanns that if EZBoard doesn't fix it, their HQ is gonna look like a scene from Kill Bill. And I just got a new katana last week. Anyone wanna help? We can have a Deadly Viper Assassin Squad of our own.

[Shyriath]

Whatever differences may divide micronations, some good old-fashioned carnage can bring us together. I don't have a katana, but perhaps I could fight alongside you, bludgeoning the guilty with my metal walking stick?

[Emperador Augustin]

I own over a dozen swords. If you don't own one, I have spares.

Cranda's been wiped clean too. Attera's been knocked back to a year ago. God I hope for a restoral. Waz ist wunders hie geschehenDaz ein Magt ein Kint gebarHêre übr Engel ScharWas daz niht ein Wunder gar?-Walther von der Vogelweide

[Scott of Hyperborea]

Apparently this was the result of a hacker attack. EZBoard thinks they are hot on the guy's trail. I hope he rots in prison forever.They also think they'll be able to restore everything up to May 9th, which is pretty good. "Whenever I hear the word 'culture', I reach for my revolver." - Herman Goering

[Liam Sinclair]

Mind you the hacker deleted a large number of the restoral backups so a lot of boards will never be fully recovered. They have a incremental backup from May 9 available, but that means all posts since then will be lost. Sir Liam Sinclair, K.S.G.Kingdom of Gotzborg | Minister of State, Home Office
