A while back there was a problem with Lounge posts going AWOL and now a similar situation has occurred in the South Africa forum
I think we all accept that things will go belly up on occasion but isn't any of the system backed up? Maybe it's not practical or possible for some reason.
To be honest my major concern isn't for the content of the various forums (fora?) although the loss of such information would be a great pity. My concern is for the content of the review database. People put a lot of time and effort into creating the reviews, and a huge amount of effort has been put into transferring reviews from the old to the new system. Is at least that part of the system secure from SNAFU's?
