This also means that I will have to spend another 4-5 hours doing all the customization again

Why would someone do this to this forum? we dont even bash any country here or even talk about politics.. and I am hoping that no one takes offence when I tell the truth about sify.

I will take backups every 6 hours from now on.

Yesterday, I had one of the 'free-est' days. I think I posted near about 55 posts. Quite a few of them were some tips to sort problems out.

And Admin, I had made a very "good" offer to you; you would know what I mean (), if you had happened to read the post before calamity struck.

Congrats on becoming 'Bronze Member' once again. As I said yesterday, welcome to the podium.

Hell! I lost over 50 posts yesterday and I believe that I had become the highest poster for that short period of time.

I have checked the logs but there is nothing we can do about this. I have done a few things which will prevent this from happening again.

That sucks man too bad... its so much hassel getting every little thing made up again

Make sure you call up your credit card and debit card provider coz if you dont its not covered under their insurance and you might end up paying a lot o money if some one uses it. When you do call them up to report this loss make sure you get a reference number from them and keep a note of it.
