How pissed off am I ?!! Since RIU was hacked (15th March 2012) over a Month of my hard work has vanished including 5 of my UPDATES on this thread :( :( :( !!! I am in 2 minds as to whether to stay with RIU as it has been my home for a number of years now, but feel I should at least finish this grow before I hand over my keys and fetch my coat :( ... I hope those of you that are still here will keep watching and follow my MONDAY UPDATES, as of now this is the only thread I'll be working on as I dont wanna risk loosing any more of my work, I hope y'all understand ~ Peace - STELTHY :leaf:

I dont quite buy thier story. they claim that they dont backup verry often due to security reasons, they dont want the files traveling over the internet too often. sure sounds good but theres no reason they can backup the files to another server on a intranet network (a network that is only shared among the company's files and is not hooked up to the internet)

i dunno i just dont buy it

they should be doing 1 big backup every week or at least keeping a solid backup and adding anything that wasnt backed up before to it every week (less data to write)

i think i may be done with this site, the shit that has been going on lately has been a bit sketchy and now they accidently lost a months worth of data?!?!?! this is basic shit when you run a server never mind one as big as RIU.

also did any of you notice that RIU stopped advertising for the attitude seed bank and now is advertising for credit card companys? i think they are selling out!!​

I just plant on taking a break, ill probally still lurk and comment on other peoples journals and shit but im going to break from keeping mine updated, i also may try and get permanently banned.

no i dont plan on going to another site, i love the layour and functionality of this site and thats what kept me into it. these other sites are just a pain in the ass so i could be bothered.

Stelthy,
Please don't leave! You are one of my favorate journals. I read the whole thing the other night because I couldn't stop. So I saw it all and a little glitch won't erase all of the ways you inspired me. I get that you need to be carefull. I am in CA and have a prescription so I feel slightly safer. Because of you I am thinking about going to a 600W HPS system. I am interested to see which hood you decide upon.
Hope you stay!
Cheers,
Mo

Hey Stelthy,

Rough week huh! Sorry for your losses what a PITA! The people that contribute to this site and make it great, like you do, must be really pissed! Hopefully things improve!

Cheers, LG

Straight up, and now they have a android app that you can buy for a dollar? It seems the company is out for monetary gain realizing how many people use this website, and the sensitive information it holds. I have been a lurker on the site, and have only done a couple threads to journal my grows in the past. Needless to say I won't be doing any further journals.

Basically I think RIU has seen its better days, but I will ride it out and hope for the best.
