Thanks to Keara at from WestHost tech support and TrueSatan, babjusi, BlackMage and Fiery at The Simple Machines Forum, it’s finally back up again.

I hope too many messages weren’t lost…

I have been diligently working to get the forums back up, but it’s been a difficult road so far.

When Billy told me there was a problem, I attempted a forum upgrade.

We didn’t have enough server space to do the forum upgrade, and we crashed in the middle of the forum upgrade, leaving the database in a half upgraded state.

At some point during my forum upgrade attempt, our web host upgraded our platform, so I lost back ups of the forum before the attempted forum upgrade.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to re-install the forum and still keep all members, posts and messages.

So, I’m working on it. It’s just slow going right now.

Please bear with me. I’ll update if I get any closer…
