As most of you are already aware, I messed up yesterday. In attempting to move old retired accounts to a new usergroup, I accidentally moved them all, including the admin accounts. I couldn't log in to the admin control panel to fix the mistake, so I contacted support at Liquid Web. Unfortunately, they were unable to get me back into the ACP so were forced to roll back the database. The latest backup was from the 6th of May, so everything since then was probably lost*.

This means a couple of things:

  • Firstly, to Rose and Kalista, my sincerest apologies. This sadly means you will have to re-register your accounts because they were created after the May 6th backup.

  • I have re-posted most of what was missing from the May 6th backup and transferred them to the appropriate accounts. The only ones I haven't so far are Rose's (to be done as soon as there's an account to assign them to ^^) and staff posts. The dates attached to threads won't be accurate, but I think we can live with that. (:

  • I have restored cash and given you guys a ζ100 bonus as thanks for your patience. I'll do the same for Rose once Serenity's been re-created. :)


Again, I am very sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you so much for your patience. <3 We should be back on track very shortly!

* I say probably because I just noticed that at least one post from after the 6th survived, but I'm not sure how many were saved and I'd rather hedge my bets.
