Um I dunno if it's related to what happened to RIU...but the email account I had associated with my RIU account is completely inaccessible now. All my other emails are fine...

And before you ask....

....I don't think like a criminal.

What else have you been doing wrong ?

And it really sucks because I only had one thread and now it's gone
will this kind of thing happen again?

If you only had one thread why worry as many people have lost a ton of info including me and yes its possible to happen again but i dont know. I lost 420 posts and thats all i had and is all gone.

This is bullshit. Who knows who has everyone's data now...
I don't understand what's the point in just backing up monthly. Especially when they say they do it for the sake of security?

The administrators are just lazy, no matter what excuses they may give us. lmao

Honestly, I'm not that mad about the hack itself. That can happen. As long as they kept the forum software updated they were doing their job.

The old backup does show their lazyness, or lack of expertise, though. There's no reason for them not to do at least a weekly backup. Heck you can set up a cron job and not worry about it again.

I don't know much about that sort of thing . Maybe they're just short handed .
