Why did the Talkhaustrophe happen?

I don't get why, I just know it did.

Also: was Distorted Travesty's raocow thread lost in it?

Zanyhost (previous server host of talkhaus) messed up their servers in October '13 and talkhaus was forced to use a backup (which was about 5 months old) of what was saved in data when the site came back up again under new management coming from Rena, rolling the forum back to July '13 and losing all posts made after that date.

The Distorted Travesty thread is here

It was definitely June since any post for MM&B for me after when I took my break was gone. That break was from mid-May to mid-June. Luckily, Rena had a backup from around May 31st to June 2nd or so to make sure everything wasn't lost.

It was Thissa who made a backup in June after TLs4 gave him site access.

It didn't just take out the Talkhaus, either. It killed everything.raocow.com, as well, which also had to be rolled back, and has yet to be fixed, so the last RPs archived there are incomplete playlists of Takkoman and MAGL2. Kind of a shame; I liked that archive, especially since raocow doesn't do playlists of his LPs, and it can be somewhat annoying to dig through the LP forum for old threads containing the links.

(Edit: Oh hey, post #888. Yay?)

I used it for watching rao's older videos. You should resurrect it, I'm sure others do as well.

it's still up here if you want to help categorise the videos -> http://everything.raocow.com:3000/ (although i could probably scrape raolist's playlists so don't spend too much time doing it)

the original is still here too for older videos -> http://everything.raocow.com/

Just out of curiosity, did a lot of oldbies leave because of the Talkhaustrophe, or did they leave beforehand for other reasons? I've noticed a *lot* of older posts by people with 2000-5000 posts who I've... never seen post before. Kinda makes me sad that I missed so much of this place's history.

They probably left because of other reasons.

Rao was more or less shouting from the highest mountains in his videos keeping people updated, especially when talkhaus came back, so most everybody would have known. Peeps just lose interest mang, it happens.

Personally for me it's a combination of:
-No interest in raocow
-No interest in what happens on the forum (the oldies are all cool though. And 2009-2011 this forum was the best)
-Personal stuff
-Life

And that goes for most users that stopped posting.
I still check the forum though, and every now and then see what is happening.
