Post Are the forum attachments being restored?
Like in the title, i'm tired of finding attachments that no longer have their mods inside, are they working on something that will restore them?

The data is gone forever.

I really think that they should have a separate, daily but overwriting attachment backup or something.

Until people reupload them.

OH MAN.

Also a daily buffer of what-attachments that are uploaded that day? That week? That month? Ever?

How do you determine what a good cutoff point is? It's not like the attack only removed a day's worth of attachments; it took things out from months ago, and the attachment database is between 4 and 6 gb, according to James.

Man, this just keeps making this situation all the more lulzy. So the posts were restored but not the attachments?

Way to go, Chinese hax0rz.

I don't understand why there wasn't an attachment backup or something.

Who knows? Valuable lesson learned, I suppose.

From what I heard, you were the one telling everyone to make a backup.
