Today BurnoutAholics.com has been unavailable for about 6 hours. This is the first time in the 4 years we have been around that we have had any major unplanned downtime. The reason for the problem was that the disk raid on the webserver that hosts Burnoutaholics.com crashed and had to be replaced. Due to this we have lost posts made between 23.06.2010 04:00 and 23.06.2010 13:00. Any new users that registered in this timespan will have to re-register.

Burnoutaholics.com has until today been running on PHP 4 and MYSQL 4. This has been a problem for us since it has restricted what we can do on the site. As a result of the disk crash our hosting provider had to upgrade both PHP and MYSQL to the latest version which is very good news for us!

I'm pretty sure we didn't lose any content, at least since the last time I looked at the site! We may have lost some new members, but as Xandu said, they can always re-register!
