Not enough D: in the world at IJ...
...I think I just lost about 45% of posts to the RP comm I moderate thanks to this news:

http://twitter.com/insanejournal

My hosting company f-ed up .. They canceled the databases and are telling me I can't have them back. I have a copy of the db from about amonth ago. I will work on getting that one back up and running asap"


Anybody else just get seriously hosed? Thread for commisserations, complaints, pointing and laughing.

Edit #2 (as of about 8:45 AM PST): 
"It appears that I will be able to get the databases back,. I will update again soon when I know more"

There's...hope? *wince*

Edit the ARGHth: (10:35 AM PST) :
This may take awhile longer. They have the drives set aside but I have to order new servers. 

Well, CRAP. D: 

Edit the WHOOHOOth!: (9:02 AM PST Wed thx [info]ladybug218 and [info]nanthimus
Now that I have the orignal databases in my hands I can confirm that NO DATA HAS BEEN LOST!

Site is back up but with new IP addresses; may take a few hours to propagate over the tubes. Note: some pages still give errors, particularly the login page which doesn't seem to be working right now.  If a page isn't immediately working for you, try refreshing.

Clearly, we have no choice but to start Yet Another RP Crack Community here to fill the interim.

Hey, I hadn't thought about it. Woe is us, anyway.
