A Big Apology From Vidsgal - GoFuckYourself.com

GTS Mark · 04-13-2006, 06:40 PM

Dear buyers and paid submitters,

Unfortunately due to a server move this week we lost the back up of Vidsgal and we have pretty much had to start all over again from scratch. We lost all the trades, partner accounts, paid spots, archives, main page EVERYTHING!!!

Anyways we have been working our ass off the last 2 days to get the site back up and we have implemented a brand new template (we were working on this before the move anyways) and we think the productivity should go far up. We have installed ATX trader as well that should be a much improved upgrade from the RB4 Script we were running. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, I know many of the paid submitters were e-mailing me but unfortunately my e-mail server was messed up and I could'nt even e-mail you back to explain.

Everyone will be compensated for the down time and if you are trading with Vidsgal (or would like to) would you kindly send me a quick e-mail ([email protected]) and I will gladly get you added on immediately.

Thanks a bunch for your patience and understanding,
Mark AKA DH

I wish that there was a way that this could have been avoided. We did everything that we could to work with the previous hosting company to get a current backup.

And they sure are running now. Daily replicated database backups along with nightly content backups that we have full control over are running without a hitch now.

Really, without getting into a long drawn out story, there really was absolutely no way that that this could have been avoided.

But the site is working better then ever now and I know that DH has some really exciting stuff planned.
