If you're wondering what happened to most of the posts made during the day on 8/25 we lost them.

The database server crashed today and left ADT's databases in a corrupted state. I needed to restore from a backup. The most recent backup was early in the morning on 8/25 so we lost today's posts and reviews.

Nothing much. The forum *did* benefit by crashing in some respects: now we don't have to surf through the 30+ posts that fucker made and all the mods shut down. I swear it was like a full page of threads by this one dude who liked to pick fights. I think his named as "monsta" or something...

Sorry to hear about your crashing out troubles...I do regret the loss of the revival of the controversy over in the Cyntherea as Squirtwoman thread maybe things just got too wet?

This all because Teagan thread. It's corrupting the database.

My marriage proposal to Dillan Lauren has been wiped out.

Cool. I went a bit OTT on AdultManiac's thread about the dangers of too much porn.

Now my posts have gone I don't have to be embarrassed by them!

Yes. I think it's happened 3 or 4 times since 1999.

It was my fault - sorry 'bout that. Oddly enough, though, at the exact time I tried to log on for the first time in like 2 days, I first got the [ODBC] errors, then I got "HTTP/1.1 Application Restarting" messages, then lo -- there was but One Active Topic. This one.

What timing! I could hear Drew in my head muttering under his breath -- "jeez, give it a minute! It'll be up in ten more seconds! Stop banging on it already!"

But, but .. I was taking over my machine at work from home and using it to take over other machines on my LAN and ... I like to post while the progress bars go by! I didn't know what to DO!!

Who's Teagan?

18 loads in one day, spew? C'mon, after about the fourth one, those are dry fires. Even with lube, that'll give you fricton burns, too. Wait a minute, how would I ... heh. Wrong thread. *POOF*

Great! Last night Peter North posted the secret to his huge loads and the girls from ADT agreed to star with me in an ADT Amateur Reverse Gang Bang

I could be wrong but I think Peter's secret was "STOP JERKING OFF SO MUCH!"

p.s. do you think Jewel is in Dr. Evil's Lair commanding her evil henchmen to exact revenge on ADT?

p.s. If Jewel reads this I'm just kidding, please don't drop me in a fish tank full of ill-tempered sea bass.

Me too. I was sorry to see the discussion dry up (pun intended) when the lovely lady herself originally chimed in.
But at least myk's post survived so it's not a total loss.
You think the dampness shorted out the server?


Thanks to Drew for getting things up and running so quickly, and for generally keeping them running so smoothly.

I think the problem with the server isn't as exciting as hackers or bodily fluids. The problem is me being cheap. The server is a quad processor Compaq Itanium based system. All of the documentation says that "you must use Compaq memory in this system only or the server may be unstable!" I've heard this from server manufacturers for the last 15 years and it's always been bullshit. I think in this case it might be true. I removed the non-Compaq memory today and the problems seem to have gone away. I'll know for sure in a week or two. In the mean time I have a backup server configured with live replication so we won't lose any more data.
