Mysidia server crisis and Our official apology

[Hall of Famer]

@Bexasaurus:
Yes, unfortunately, all accounts and activities that happened after Apr 27th were gone. Because of the data I have was before Apr 28th, I dont have the PM you sent to me earlier either. You have to register again and PM me your admin credentials for installation.

Ah, alright! Glad I hadn't started much on it.

Dang that is crazy!

Are they a managed server provider or do you manage it HoF?

I would imagine you could get more/longer free hosting out of them.

But this does show how important it is for everyone to keep back ups of their work. Anything can happen and it will.

Yeah, the chance of this happening is like someone gets hit by a falling bear bottle while walking next to a building. The server is self-managed, although they handle my request if I want them to do something for me(ie. PHP version upgrade). They did offer me a three months free hosting, although I am still not sure if I would stay with them once the 3 months period expires. After all, its hard to restore faith and trust once its completely lost.

I highly recommend Digital Ocean.

I have gotten $100s of free credits from them and have been with them for 2 years. You can spin up as many servers as needed and scale them. Best quality and pricing I have found. Twice the power of godaddy and host gator and at half the cost.

Only thing is you have to manage it so pick your favorite flavor of linux :D

They also offer automatic back ups and snapshots so if something breaks just load a restore point.

If you sign up with this link you should get 10$ free credit to try.
