I returned from camp a couple of days ago and decided to upload some photos to my site. I went to Flickr and “blogged this photo” and it was all fine. Then I went to my site and all the comments were messed up. I later found out I had a comments.MYI error which meant my comments database decided to go FUBAR on me and that there was nothing I could do to restore it. The posts were still all there but the comments attached to them were gone. The last time I had backed up my WordPress database was sometime in early August of this year and I was rather depressed.
Now I’ve managed to also lose all the entries I wrote and all the comments I received since August 3rd (time of my last backup). Oh well, what can you do, shit like this happens. From now on, I’m going to backup my database every week.
Comments now work again and I’ll be posting again. I had written one good entry after August 3rd about online learning and I may still have it somewhere on my computer so I’ll try to post it up again. The 10 comments it had attached to it are gone forever though. Sorry guys.
