Looks..... strange with those colors, something like desert version (Desert Eagle got new face.....

).
Also, I was wondering why the clip isn't in the handle, but now I think it was that way in Unreal so nevermind.

Good job!

The colors...probably will end up getting darkened.

New website update: it's down... pretty much lost unless a backup.

Nah, BU said they got the problem sorted out (recent backup succesfully recovered) and that all they need to do now is get some new HD's.

Well, yes. They have to recover it which is a pretty annoying process.

And I lost 4323 posts! (pretty much all)

A great loss to us all [/sarcasm]
I wouldn't worry about too much, you'd probably make it up in about 3 months or so.
And BU said the backups failed too so they're gonna have to use back-ups from may 2006.

Who the hell cares if posts are lost??? Think what'll happen if the hosted sites doesn't get full data back again! It's easy to replace them thinking at sites like any mapper site, but think at sites like NaliCity or Insite.

But they can still recover stuff from the corrupted data.

Heh, USP's old forum got its crash, now BU too. I hate when these kinds of stuff happen.

I doubt the recovered data will be usable, it'll require a lot of fixage. But it's freaky how the backup and the original got corrupted simultaneously.

I have to agree with XYZ8k here.. it's not about the postcount, but informational posts that are lost, posts that have value... and everything besides the posts.

Post by **UB_** » 17 Jan 2008, 20:39

Yeah, who cares about posts?

Anyway there wasn't anything useful in the forums apart "Whine-Flaming", tags, etc...

This database thing at BU sucks a lot. Especially since I was about to do an update over the weekend.

So procrasination on my part for not posting update material was to our benefit :p

It would seem so
