HAHA! looks like the K3\/\/L Board (IE: BOMBSHOCK) Has blown up!
</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica"> Hello everyone.
There has been a major catastrophie! basically everything concerning the forums has been lost. i managed to import a few of the accounts from the old forums into these ones again, but there is still about 9000 registrations that have been lost also (shudder) all the posts have been lost. I am extremely sorry everyone. It was out of my control and could not have happened at a worse time. Just as the forums were re-building after the recent upgrade, this bullshit has fuckin happened. I am really fucked off and I know a lot of people out there will be too. I am very sorry.
I know that bombshock forums will survive and all you people that enjoy posting here will continue too. thanks in advance for everyones support.
So Xpl0siv, What tha fuck happened?!
Well it is a really fuckin shit story. I host this website on a virtual server. The host is actually really great and are extremely helpful. I used to have two accounts there, one for this website and one for another. Anyway, The other account had a mysql database associated with it, (they are free with the account at no extra cost, but take about a day or so to be setup) Anyway in my haste to get bombshock up and running i used the mysql account that was associated with the other account for the bombshock forums, not realising that it would be deleted when i cancelled my other webhosting account. When i deleted my webhosting account, the mysql databse was deleted as well, which included all the data powering the forums
so now i have a mysql database "associated" with this account, so this fuckup won't happen again.
Once again sorry to everyone who comes here and especially thoses people that had contributed so much valuable information.
On the brighter side, I have created a set of guidelines and rules for new members, those that frequent here will be familiar with how these forums work. Those that are new, it is a good idear to read through them.

Some of the best stupid posts were:
"where do I buy AP?"
"where can I get C4?"
"where can I get RDX?"
"Can I use a firecracker to set off HE?"
"can I use a cratermaker to set off ANFO?"
"2 parts, 1 part: what does that mean?"
and so on....
