RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Dearest members; The forum experienced an outage Monday March 4, 2019. When service restored, it became apparent all posts since March 2 are missing. The administrator is aware and we'll see if a restoration is possible. In the meanwhile, please continue use as normal and we'll get this sorted out.

Thanks for your patience!

Open the pod bay doors please Hal!!!!!
 
If this is the Red Pill I am going to pass! :)


Thank you for the warning, Scott!
*pours another cup ot tea*
 
At present, Admin is busy doing their save Hal stuff, etc...
With hope, they may be able to restore to the point of the system shut-down. At this point it is too early to know.
Clearly it was a hit! Looks like they (it) restarted on a possible safe place or where there is viable data. In the meantime, make paper notes as to what you had created or posted.
As soon as we hear, we will pass it along.

To all our members, thank you for your ongoing patience. We humbly apologize to everyone who lost posts, conversations and threads. Hopefully this will be resolved soon.
 
A huge thank you to all our members for your patience with this situation. I am really hoping we receive good news from Admin today.
 
Thanks, Modsters!
I'm just relieved to know that I didn't lose my mind!
That's always such a reassurance...
 
As a recommendation, it will be better if we assume that the 'Hal Event' has resulted in the loss of 'all data' between the time of the crash and back to the safe restart point. If our Admin group is able to recover some or all of the data that will be great. But for now, we really should proceed based on it being gone.
We have loss wonderful works, but still have an operational Parrot Forums to move forward. A Thank you to each of you for what you have done and will be doing to carry us into the future.

Best regards, Your Mod Team.

Ships happens .... I know you all did and do everything you can.
 
Thanks, moddies, for all you do and please pass on thanks to the admins as well. It will be lovely if everything can be restored. If not - it was just some words. There are plenty more of those laying around here.
 
I know we lost a new member! I had said hello, but an iPad isn’t the easiest to search for history! Windows, I go off line and read all the cached pages!
 
I heard back from Admin., and when the server crashed they had to restore it from a backup from a couple of days ago. Unfortunately the 2 days are gone for good.
You all have been amazing through this, it is much appreciated.
 
Thanks for the efforts to recover the days.....I’m sure we’ll manage to make more conversations :)
