aspnetguy Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I was a bit surprised myself at how old the backup. Not sure if the admins can make manual backups or not but Invision (hosting provider) should have more regular backups than every 3-4 weeks.

cpugeek Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 they should probably update the backup every week or every other week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 If the admins are unactive more then the last backup, then this would mean that they wouldn't be able to restore the forum. That is of course if we suppose they have the right of one backup file at Invisionzone. If they didn't act in a period of a month, this would have meant they would have restored the forum up to the point where it was just hacked. Imagine that.
