I'm not sure what kind of data loses we're going to see when the official forum is back up and running. I have PDF backups of the following threads, courtesy of Flickerfinger. Flickerfinger might have more.
Destination Gawain
Entering Town
In for a Bumpy Ride!
The Coven's Valley
Evicted
Nowhere to be found

That's great! I think we've lost all of the threads. I'm not sure. But the more data we can get from everyone the better.
By the way, I was worried you wouldn't be rejoining us, because I couldn't find your e-mail and didn't know if anyone had it. Good to see you back with us. |

Quite. All I hope for is to see Feila still standing. And I hope all of the members can find themselves relocated to the site.
... And try to make Feila more hackproof. Of course, that was probably obvious. _________________ This is going to remain empty for now. However, she shall refill to proper standard as soon as the site is again like it's original. |

I have a large (though not complete) collection of the posts that I made in the past saved to word documents, unfortunately it's only my posts, but I suppose it's something... |

The more saved, the better. I found tons of threads cached on Google.
Anyone want a particular role-play or character saved? I may not be able to get all of the pages of a role-play, but a few pages are better than nothing. I think I can pretty much guarantee most of the character biographies. I've already saved a lot of the culture, politics, government, etcetera, you know big stuff, and I've started to save some of the role-playing threads and characters, namely mine, JamesG's, and JustinG's. If you have a request, leave it here, or you're welcome to save something yourself. I recommend saving the entire webpage by right-clicking the cached website and selecting "Save Page As...", as we may be able to directly restore some of these threads with the source code. I can't make any promises on that, though. If worse comes to worse, we can always repost threads with the text. _________________ "Anything good in life is either illegal, immoral, or fattening." - Murphy's Law

Sure, of course. We always like our Feilan pirates. And ninjas. |

That's funny. I tried looking through google's cache yesterday but all I could find were the main page and other pages at a depth of one link. Looks like I wasn't being specific enough! Arrival at the Unseen University is cached right up to page 3!... out of 6.
I will be saving backups of the entire site minus the drawing board and password protected areas every weekend for the forseeable future. If this kind of thing ever happens again, our hard work will not be lost, or at least much less of it. _________________ Sade rhymes with Made |

Thank you for your hard work and dedication to Feila, Sade. It is much appreciated, very much so. With the strong community that Feila has, we will be able to recover and maintain ourselves with no problem. It is the userbase of a forum that makes a forum, after all. |

x: If you like being stealthy, be a ninja. If you like chugging rum and plundering the seven seas, be a pirate.
<w< I friggin' hate that whole.. Pirate VS Ninja stuff. Despite how it hasn't come into play here. xD
But yes. x: Personally, if anyone would care to direct me to how to backup pages perse, I'd be glad to do my part when the full site is up.

I wrote a bunch of information on recovering and backing up files here:

If you need anymore information or clarification, feel free to ask. We can use all the help we can get, and questions are more than welcome. |

Hmm, then the website copier might be fouling up my connection or tripping some kind of security mechanism.
