Forum data loss - MrBondt - 12-29-2016

Good day.

Due to an unfortunate incident when doing some routine maintenance on our forum, we accidentally wiped out our database and had to restore a backup from a week ago.

This sadly means that all posts since then have disappeared and will not be restored. We're actively working on getting our announcements back as well as some other changes to the forum.

We apologize for all inconvenience this has caused.

On behalf of the Las Venturas Playground Management,

MrBondt

That's unfortunate but this stresses out yet again the importance of doing backups.

This database error is so disturbing, I've experienced it 3 times already.
I trust that there won't be a repeat of this.

Losing all data one time shouldnt even be possible at first..
