such a sad thing!

Post by mazxim »

I see today that one of the most popular and useful forum out there regarding console hacking/homebrew presentations (and not only) - psx-scene.com - have reported this upsetting message
The site's sql database has myseriously been emptied of it's entire contents. Even a duplicate backup database is suddenly missing it's data. We are not sure if this was a case of corrput MySQL or if we were hacked. Regardless, all of the data in PSX-SCENE's six year existence is now lost. Words cannot describe what we are feeling right now.
But a duplicate backup was stored on the same server or what?

Sure, losing data is always someone else's fault.
Sounds like the sort of guys who store there personal photo back ups on the same DVD
as the original, in a folder called "backup".
If not actually, then potentially.

Now if it happened here, that would be a sad day.
I hope someone is making backups!
