…back after technical difficulties

My incredibly lame former webhosting service (BGFweb) is evidently on autopilot. The system suspended my account without warning, ignoring the fact that I’m paid through November (with receipts to prove it). Numerous emails and phone calls went unanswered for days. I don’t think there’s anyone running the ship; I should’ve suspected when I saw there were no posts on the BGF BBS dated later than Feb 17. Argh.

I cut my losses and moved to a reputable service. Luckily I backed up my databases a few days before (whew!), or I would’ve been totally screwed. Re-assembling from pieces proved tougher than starting from scratch, but it looks like everything is in order.

Luciana! - how are you!!

Yep, you were right. Guess I was mentally on autopilot too ; ) After they got sold, the custService literally disappeared. I was too lazy to change - bad on me!

Great to hear from you - I miss you all!
