Funkeys Babble 2008-2009 - RIP (2.0 on the way)
It’s hard for me to admit defeat, but the Funkeys Babble forum suffered a tragic end today. The database is completely corrupt and the hosting service I use does not allow for the replacement of a database that large from backup.
I do plan to re-instate a forum here, and hope to have at least a general area to converse in by the end of the night. User accounts will need to be re-created, so everyone please avoid using usernames that you know others were using here. I’m going to allow those who had them the first time keep them based on e-mail address, so if you make one that someone else already has claim to, you’ll lose it and have to choose a new name.
I’ll update you all as I have news. Tonight as I said before will be very basic. I’ll add the categories and the look & feel of the old forum as I get time this week.
Sorry all, I’m just as disappointed as the rest of you. This was my baby…

A moment of silence for the Babble Forum...
Augie, I am sorry. Let us know what we can do to help when you are ready.
I'm in shock...
I don't know how much it's possible to retrieve in the way of lost information using this method, but I've managed to at least partially recreate my animation to do list looking through Google's archives and cached sites.
YAY GOOGLE BOT!!!
That's a bummer Augie! But we'll start over and it will be fine :D Let me know if you need any help with anything.

Thanks for the support everyone... :) I know we'll make another great forum! And yes, I'll get all the groups (mods, roving reporters, etc...) recreated once we have some members registered.
If you've posted a comment and I didn't approve it, it's because of language in some. Sorry guys, I know you're frustrated but I didn't let you say those words on the forum, I'm not gonna let you say them here... :P Try again!
This Stinks. I forgot to save my Biggest Winner, so I'm just going to discontinue it completely. And Sorry about the forum. I hope the new one is better than the older one as much as the next forumer. (Okay, maybe the one after).
LOL! Jack Squash! Lucky just named our custom pumpkin Funkey! Cheer up everyone. Instead of being crippled by this blow let's just Yang this bad and counterract with good to create an even more wonderful place and enjoy a Funkey Fresh Start!
Hey Augie,
We'll make the next one even better than the last!! :-)
Sorry about the loss though - like you said it was your baby and we all took turns to babysit....

You must be gutted. That was a fine forum.
However, the members are still here so we will get it back to it's former glory in no time.
If there is anything you need Augie, you have 3 willing volunteers in this house. Just let us know what you need.
