albeit with a 3 week old version of the database :urff:

you can find a brief description of the downtime and the technical troubles here:

http://www.ghostdance.co.uk/forum/viewt ... =4241#4241

anyway, we're back now so feel free to fill the forum back up with the unique brand of waffle and gibbering that heartland has become known for ;) :lol: :innocent:

thanks for your patience and support :notworthy:

But man what damage done...

That old Zottegem thread had feeling and what not in it as people were getting home and just saying one or two things, it was emotional, is all that seriously lost?

Oh and happy to finally be able to log on! :D

QB indeed treats us well. :notworthy: Any chance of cointacting the IT tech from the old host (as mentioned at the Ghost Dance forum)? If so, can threads, like the aforementioned Zottegem one, be incorporated back into the fold? I suspect not likely.

One silver lining: nearly 150 spammers have left the building. :roll:
