Bilittrell:
Yea i accidently deleted a whole story too.
Maybe cos you didn't actually delete and it was the site that messed up that it is floating around somewhere.

You should do what i do though to back myself up. I'm so paranoid my comp will die and I'll lose everything that i email myself the chapters. That way they are in my inbox. I've got my fingers and toes crossed for ya!

Wow, that is scary to think that can happen (the fatal SQL error)!  Like I said, I've never heard of such a thing happening, but I guess we've only been on this server a month or so.

I'm so sorry; I know you must be freaking out.  There's no way I'd wanna try to rewrite all that either.  I know you have a lot of people reading this story, so hopefully some of them will be able to help!

Bilittrell:
I've had the fatal sql error thing pop up before, usually when the page loads after i've posted an update.

I usually open the story on Absolute Chaos like I'm going to print it and save the whole thing as a .pdf.  Unfortunately, I haven't done that since chapter 12.  I'm doing a lot of face slaps this morning.  It's going to be a LONG day at work :S

julilly:
I had to email Chaos and ask him when the last backup he has is, but I fear that it was done back when we moved servers, so you won't have all the chapters.

The backup was set to be done today, and it was, so losing your stuff yesterday truly was the worst timing ever.

When I look back to see what everyone was doing last night, it does show that you deleted the story. I don't even know how that would have happened with an error uploading a new chapter, I am stumped.
