What Were You Expecting? A New Site?

As much as we would love to have spent the last few days upgrading Boardistan.com, we’re just thankful to have our old site back in one piece and functioning. Seriously. Thank you to everyone who noticed we were down and texted, IM’d, or emailed encouragement and/or theories on exactly what happened.

We can assure you, none of the rumors were true. We were neither hacked, nor hired away by any large companies who do not allow blogging on the side. And we most certainly were not strong-armed into taking the site down by powerful men with smooth, confident South African accents.

Our problems over the last few days were much more mundane and entirely too retarded to discuss here in any kind of detail other than to say this–– If a set of hard drives are reportedly backing each other up automatically that doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea to have a couple more back-ups as well.

As we learned last week, sometimes DIY means “destroy it yerself.”
