What happened to groups?

Oops, I have to re-add that.

@Null @Null @Null
we also appear to have lost the nice meme sound, please fix

 

[Jaimas]

The images from the Brianna Wu and Vade-related articles, for the most part, I still have.

There may be parts that we can't repair of the Jace article for Lolcow Wiki, but I'm damned sure willing to help try when we get it back up.

Internet archive seems to have quite a bit including images.

Last Brianna Wu trawl was in August 2015 unfortunately though:

Edit: Oh, the original resolution images are fucked. Not available on Google Cache either. Looks like Google has more up to date versions of some articles though.

Edit edit:

Looks like there's some more recent stuff available on archive.is too. Unfortunately still no original res images, although some random archived ones available.

I can repair the Shaner article since I have all the images and most of the text. However if you have an actual text copy of the article it would save me a ton of time in recreating it.

Those dang dirty Frenchies. Always surrendering. They still owe us for bailing them out in dubyadubyatwo!

 

[Red_Rager]

Are there any pages that are up on archive.today? Maybe there is something there or the waywaybackmachine. If not then we need to archive everything there for great justice

@Null
About the random text, can't you create a quotes table and call a random one through a mysql query?

 

[LordCustos3]

Guy in the middle looks like he is going up like a dry dungheap!

I was about to say "He looks like he's about to break into a Bollywood song-and-dance number"

So when is the retaliatory nuke strike?
French first, the sociopath scum.

We should invoke Exterminatus on the whinebottles that got Linode to drop us first. Then scour the earth clean of The Fraaanch.

I just got one of the "Hei! Don't forget us!" Notifications from Dark Mechanium, And It looks like all the stuff is still there.

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Gandi? Who made the decision to completely wipe everything from the servers without even bothering to let the site owner know until afterwards?

You know, as much as we were mocking Linode for being a bunch of pussies, Gandi is a hundred times worse. At least Linode said "Hey, we want you gone, but we're going to give you several days to find a new server and back everything up." Gandi just yanked the fucking plug and then acted like they were doing Null a huge favor by refunding him. What a shitty company.

If only Jace were still around to teach these fucking Frenchies a lesson...

 

[Alex Krycek]

The loss of so much Deagle Nation Content is on par with ISIS burning Palmyra. A preview of things to come for all of France one can be assured.

I've actually asked for an extension on that time and they've agreed to it, so I'm probably going to continue using them for low risk services.

That was surprisingly cool of them.

Why'd you loose that much data? Why were there no backups??

 

[ShavedSheep]

like he said, we were transitioning over to the French servers and then they noped out and just deleted everything. It was probably the worst time it could have happened.

Oops, I have to re-add that.

On the groups forum, it's telling me "You must wait 30 days remaining to next update associate forums." Do you have any idea what the fuck that's trying to say?

MWAAAHAAAA THE FRENCH

No, the author of that mod is Hungarian or something.

Why not use the same host as 8chan? They deal with shit like this on a regular basis and seem to get by relatively fine.

Or, hell, someone in another thread suggested using the same host as Stormfront. That could work.
