We're back! Our server took a dive last night...

**FRAiD** · 02-25-2007, 05:44 PM

We're back! Our server took a dive last night. We lost every file on the site from a period of september 06 to now. Fortunately, because of how our site operates, we did not lose any posts or new members from that time period.

Also, another thing that is nice is because of the fact that we switched to a different host for our videos we most likely did not lose too many videos as well.

If you still see a broken video link in about 3 hours (as I'm still uploading the videos back now) Please contact myself, thehalogod or slayer with a direct link to the video that appears to be broken.

Thanks for bearing with us... but GV appears to be back up and running now. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you still see funky stuff going on with the site after about 2 hours let us know.

Sweet, I was wondering what happened when I got home from my tournament last night and I got on my computer I was like "wtf, wheres GamingVidz?"

But good to see the site is back up and running.
