We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
It’s been mentioned in the discord that they will likely give free year sponsorships to those who lost them in this.
Issues? Looks fine to me!

You've put this in great perspective for me. HFBoards is my Tiktok.
So um..... This is the second major crash in a two month span? Maybe it's time for new host if XenForo is a PoS?
In that case, you're one of my favorite posters, NyQuil.
Once this gets deleted, I'll deny ever having said it, so enjoy it while it lasts.
I'd maybe refrain from suggesting such major changes if you don't really understand anything about the infrastructure and whatnot.
Not good HF, not good. If you need a new owner with money, reach out to me. Lets get rid of whatever is dragging this great community down.
Good news is it's looking like some things are being recovered from as recent as 3/13/25. No guarantees but it's possible not much is lost.
How about make it just average
