The Vault is gone - Requesting user help

Post by Orwell » Tue Nov 18, 2008 6:50 pm

Apparantly the vault has disappeared, and along with it all backups as well. If you have downloaded anything from the vault, could you upload it and post it here or PM me. I'll try to recollect everything that was available and try to get it restored. Unfortunately I don't have a list of all of the content that was uploaded, but one might be found.

The Vault is meant to be an archive of all amvs classic and new not hosted on a-m-v.org. New Content meeting this criteria is accepted as always.

Thank you.

1. site5 loses my files
2. i notice, and ask them to restore from a backup (a feature they advertise)
3. they tell me they have my backups, but it will have to wait until monday for to be restored.
4. monday passes
5. half of tuesday passes, i ask for a status update
6. "Hi Mike, I'm very sorry, but we do not seem to have backups for your account. You will need to restore from your own backups or recreate your site content."

this just in
"Hi Mike, We're looking into the problem now to see why backups weren't created for your account; we do normally make backups, however we do not guarantee them. In the future, you can ask us to check to ensure they're being made."
i had a funny picture about choking people over the internet, but site 5 lost it. gg

thats all for now. see orwell's post.

If I had some kind of webspace I could try and find time to upload what I have, but I'm not going to do this with free upload sites like Rapidshare or Megaupload, which is all I have access to at the moment.

could you try messaging the creators? they should have backups of their own vids, i know i have backups of all mine.

I have Aluminum Studios' two Perfect Blue videos ("Torn" and "Every Breath"). Where should I upload them?

If you want to just zip them both together and put them on a site like http://www.megaupload.com that'd work. Or if Minion could possibly set up a upload location on his site so we can start recollecting?
