New Friendly web-shop! • SO happy with PunBB! • Now punBB 1.4.x on ALL forums (won't tell how many or their addresses to avoid spam-regs)

Re: back up the site/forums

Yes its good idea, by the way if somonepost the possible ways to secure the forum, it will be a nice idea. (not only backing up also how to run a safe site).

God wisely designed the human body so that we can neither pat our own backs nor kick ourselves too easily

Re: back up the site/forums

Are you speaking of PunBB forums or just sites and forums in general?

Re: back up the site/forums

if your talking about sites in general then theres always threats... my first site with a domain name (back when i used postnuke sad) got hacked by anti-war people from vietnam... it was a site about a online army game and they though we were talking about war :S

forums and sites in general.
i guess the threat is higher for some reason. my friend hasn't been online or at his phone so i haven't talked to him lately to get any specifics. when i do i'll be sure to post it here.
