OT: General OT Thread #44 - The World is Still Turning

Not liking things so far, but will be patient.
Yeah, need patience. Not HF's fault those hired to host the site failed to do their job. Management is pretty angry at them to say the last. Cleanup will take time. At least we didnt appear to lose any threads in the data recovery, though i had 9 pages of thread prefixes to fix here...

What really sucks, is the new account data completely lost over the last year!

I'm going to go ahead and disagree with this. If they're asking people for money, and taking in ad money, they should have a proper backup plan.
"Well XenForo had it covered" isn't a proper backup plan. They should have some sort of software that backs up to offsite data.

That money goes to paying for hosting/ server services. HF has never owned servers to store data. They rent server access. Always have since the beginning.
 
Guess you're gonna have to become DigitalTrenin.

Someone said we could try to get the sponsor status back, correct? Assuming ads on mobile are unbearable still if/when they are back
