Seems like a weird comment after the site just lost 8 months of data.
Are you being sarcastic and taking a shot at this site’s misfortune?

I can't complain, I'm new and only lost 10 posts or so - I feel for the members who lost thousands.

A big THANKS to the owner and mods for bringing the site back.

I'd say blame the Camaro people but they're too busy fixing their own hack jobs.

At least I only lost about 310 posts.

I am making the point that sometimes doing things on the cheap or incorrectly can cause big problems. Just thinking outloud. I have no idea how this site is hosted or where the server is located. Actually it is none of my business. As stated I am glad the site is back up and running.

I lost more than 2000, and many pages of my 94 GTs thread are gone, along with the other threads with tech info I had.

Side note, that rear glass louver set-up looks awesome. Who makes those?
The rear window louver is from Saleen. This is the same louver that is on the Parnelli Jones model. You can get them directly from Saleen Speed Labs in CA.

Everything from Mid January 2009 through Sept 6, 2009 was deleted. If you see people with a high post count it was from posts prior to Jan 2009.

I had over 1K but got knocked down to 30, my Jan 2009 level.

My motto in life: "Worse things will happen yet today." I'm actually an optimist, and this motto keeps me grounded when I think that I've got it bad.

Sucks about the hack. But in perspective, lots worse things are happening all around us...

Happy thoughts - this is post #2 for me!!!

I've been around a long time. Almost 5 years. I am so sorry that all that great information from the past 10 months has been lost. But who in the hell only backs up their site every 10 months????? For that I have a hard time feeling sorry. That is nothing but wrong in today times.

I thought they said the recent backups got destroyed too.
