I read another message board about a diffrent author (Terry Goodkind) well the guy who runs it has "Nuked" it apearently 433 times in the life of the board most of witch have resulted in a total loss of all the threads and a few have resulted in EVERYBODY having to reregister I have seen it nuked 3 times at least if not 4 but I cannot remember that ever once happening here

Yeah, a few of the threads have been wiped out by accident over the last year or so - but never the entire Board and never requiring people to reregister. And even if it did get 'nuked' as you say, I've got it backed up in about 3 different places. We might lose a few days to a weeks worth of posting, but that would be it. Backups are the best thing anyone can do and so few people do them...oh well. I learned early they were a good thing. smile.gif

Does that answer the kestion? smile.gif

just a quick quote I heard the other day, I think you'll like it:

"Your web site is only as good as your back up"

Wont tell you who said that, but I think it applies to most computer systems!
