All post/topic content is there as of right now doing another backup on that right now just in case.

No ETA unfortunately due to illegal content posted by a user the server was seized....  So not sure if we will get it back. If I get it back will be tomorrow. Otherwise 3 to 5 days.
Then I will do another move so maybe a little more downtime after that.

http://wilds.smfforfree.com/index.php  Nothing to do but to wait. Hopefully it won't be 3-5 days, but we'll see.

Bad news their decision is final to pull the drives. It will be at least 3 to 5 days for sites to be back. There will be some data loss. Posts and topics are safe as of right now. But attachments, changes to styles, pictures made since 12/30/2015 will be lost for sure. Custom domain users we will have to change the ip address for your sites. I am moving everything away and this probably cost me tens of thousands of dollars to complete disaster.

freesmfhosting.com seems the only one that is working for now. Hope everything is back to normal with the other sites too.

I am surprised after all these years of being operational that nobody on any of the forums had ever posted anything illegal, or sensitive or what ever..

What in the world could a single user have posted that resulted in such a massive sweep of closing down the servers ?

It's total bullshit about an old posts from 5 years ago on an inactive forum from one of forum hosting sites that i bought out. Still arguing with them. But already working on plan b and c options to get out just those take time to do :(

It's not easy I am buying own equipment and moving to a datacenter. So at least I will always own it.
