Site Downtime

We would like to apologize to all our readers for the site down-time this weekend as well as last weekend. We thought we had rectified the problem last week, but sadly we clearly failed to properly address the cause. Unfortunately, as a result, we lost approximately a week of data that was not properly backed up. We know the importance of back ups, and under normal conditions the site is backed up daily, however during this past week, those backups were not properly functioning.

We have been able to restore all the articles that we've posted in the past week, unfortunately the backups for our forum and encyclopedia we completely compromised, so we had to restore week old data.

We apologize profusely to all the members of our community who have lost their discussions, encyclopedia entries and myAnime entries in this past week.

I would also like to apologize to our staff, many of whom will have lost some of their work.

We are still working on resolving the cause of the problem, and we will post further updates when we can.
