CSDb back online
Now CSDb is back online.
I must regret to say that the data that was lost the other day is gone for good. :(
I deleted the primary backup by mistake yesterday (shit happens), and there seems to be no secondary backup.
I have now taken all precautions so that a similar incident should never happen again.
In addition I have also made some feature to avoid anyone from mass-deleting ever again, which I will of course not go into details on here.
I hope you are willing to restore the data that were lost so that we can get CSDb back to it's old state.
Thank you.

Ahh, at least SM isn't an American. How embarassing that would be for those of us on this side of the Atlantic. Can't one of you German sceners go beat a little sense into him?
Is there a solution to be found here that will prevent this from happening again? Perhaps require edits/deletions to be approved by a moderator unless it's by the maintainer of a record? |

Quote: I visit CeBit every year Hartmut... This year I´ll be there from Thursday until Sunday. At least that´s what it´s planned so far...
Seriously, we should have a small-talk about that, as Hannover is quite easy to reach from Hamburg and that might be a good chance for a decent meal and talk at one evening ;-) |

Quote: I have been checking that account out in high details now.
I don't think it's secret.
First of all the ip he used is very different from the ones I have seen secret on.
Secondly he was adding stuff at the exact same time as someone (secret) was busy deleting yesterday.
So for now I will let him live. :)
Is there any real proof he is responsible for the crash? Or was it just some witch hunt on someone some people do not like? Refering to the quote even Perff had it's doubts about it. I was not there when it happend but the whole thread reads like a witch hunt without any real proof... nothing but suspicions. The reference should be removed from his profile.
That's why we ignored it and let him join our group as Original Supplier because he does a good job at that by now. |

That was a reply to DCMP about the latest registered user at the time; A.J the timelord. Read reply #20 for the proof you ask for. |

Accounts from freemailers where everyone can register without data checking are no proof in any way. That's the internet.
Nevertheless this was 8 years ago and even there was something real on the whole issue, which I doubt, everybody deserves a second chance and he does a good job for us until now. That is what counts for us. |

I can vouch for Secret Man. He's a cool guy.
Never met him but I still want to thank him for the giant box of 3,5" disks he once sent me.

Let's shoot a documentary film about Secret Man. How he deleted all those entries and turned to the light side over the years. :)
I'd like to meet him at X'2012 if he shows up (and i show up too of course ;)). |

I heard that Mason/Unicess is Secret Man. ;) According to video by Jan Harries at least. |
