Well I got the database back - No thanks to the admins, I did it all myself. The site, however, is another matter entirely.

no I have backups, but they aren't brand new.. Still 15 days newer than the admins.

Well, at least the forums came back - I doubt there'd been all _that_ much added to the site recently, right?

Nah, nothing that can't be restored on the site, mainly because of the only updates are from my end (like the TI site).

The site's been updated?

No.. back-dated, actually.

I wonder, wouldn't that be down-dated?

It probably would. The cheek of it, the admin restored a 30 day old backup. How pathetic is that? So I restored a 16 day old backup on top of it. And there is still something wrong with the site, because I've using 40% more disk space than actually IS being used.

Perhaps the two back-ups partially overlapping?

The disk usage error was present before removing the 30 day backup.

After their brilliant support the first and second time around?

It might help...

Do make back-ups before complaining though.
