How cool is that!?
So I go to get my stuff back from the old telescum server and I find that my account has been locked and the domain tells me to contact them. Seems as though that company took over the server that we were on and found that we were “squatting” on it (i.e. not paid for access at all) and locked us.
So I gave them a polite email and asked them to let me access so I could get my stuff back…
So they let me… sweet as, ftp’d everything direct to this server, exported my databases and everything, all done and they lock my account again. Sweet. Today I go to import the telescum forum databases to the server and it only has 14 tables and gives me an error. I look at the SQL source and it seems that the export crashed halfway through!
I really didn’t wanna make a new forum and piss everyone off by making them reg again, so I gave iqthink another polite email, and asked them for access again, or a database export and told them the db name. I got a prompt reply back with the sql source file for the forum database attached! How awesome!
I think it is excellent that this internet company was kind enough to give me access to all my old stuff and help me out when they weren’t obliged to – I never paid a cent to them, or the company before them, and still they help me out. What awesome people.
