Wow, It's been something like 3 years now, and I still don't know what exactly happened. And I'm so sorry I didn't find the time and energy to fix this earlier!
Story. Late 2014, DS10forum.com possibly got hacked, in any case it crashed and lost most of its posts. More specifically: I was left with 2 pieces of Forum: A) A database (backup) of roughly 2010-2013 and B) The crashed database: which contained the posts of roughly 2014, this part of the crashed forum was still accessible.
I assume it was hacked because updating phpBB never seemed to work for me (I really did try! don't why it would just give me errors :\ ), which made it a matter of time before someone (or some bot) would exploit a security bug. I recommend you all to change your passwords here. This is a good habit anyway. And try not to use the same password everywhere on the net! You can use an automatic password tool like Lastpass to not have to remember all your passwords.
The forum is now running on the latest phBB 3.2, with the old database backup loaded, meaning that it misses all posts from 2014
. If I ever figure out how to merge these two databases I might be able to import the posts from 2014. Archive.org also has several backups DS10forum, some of their 'captures' (as they call their "backups") show more pages than others. You can find back most post there.I hope to welcome a lot of you back. And I have an awesome compilation idea... more soon... I'm dead tired now.
