I am sorry for all the downtime. There was a problem with the database which the host was unable to fix. Due to the host's inexperience, poor support, and inoperatable backup system, I have moved the site to a new host. UOGuide is now being hosted at [http://www.dreamhost.com|Dreamhost]. Dreamhost is a much larger and professional hosting provider, which should eliminate all the problems from the past 2 weeks.

Unfortunaly, as I mentioned earlier, the backups for the site were never there. All the pages were lost and cannot be recovered. I apologize to everyone who has contributed to the site. Tomorrow I will be making a backup of the database and then verifying that it is working.

Site Back Online

I am sorry for all the downtime. There was a problem with the database which the host was unable to fix. Due to the host's inexperience, poor support, and inoperatable backup system, I have moved the site to a new host. UOGuide is now being hosted at [1]. Dreamhost is a much larger and professional hosting provider, which should eliminate all the problems from the past 2 weeks.

Unfortunaly, as I mentioned earlier, the backups for the site were never there. All the pages were lost and cannot be recovered. I apologize to everyone who has contributed to the site. Tomorrow I will be making a backup of the database and then verifying that it is working.

Thanks for supporting UOGuide.com!
