hey guys
bit of an accidental shambles, as the aussies say "if it aint broken dont fix it".. well.. I tried todo a massive update of the database backend and ended up having to restore from a backup, fortunately that backup was just a few minutes old :) so the site was down for about 3 hours... reallllly sorry
Unfortunately I managed to lose the 'last viewed' data and the 'forum activity' list, that data was not part of the SQL backup :( It's actually stored in a different system - I've taken measures to be sure that this is also totally backed up into the offline NAS system.. sorry all :(
anyway yeah, i'm just one guy.. remember - TSS is no big company, we're all here helping this website to survive, you supporters and even the regular guys who PM me with a bug report etc, you all keep the site running! sorry again.

You don't need to apologize! Glad that nothing important got lost!
(Btw, regarding bug reports: am I the only one who cannot send message by pressing "Shift+Enter"?)
