so,...server, my email, my webpage..everything was stolen over the weekend...the building housing the computers was broken into and all the computers were taken. Long story short, they found out who did it and everything was returned. VERY LUCKY.....i had backups of my webpage and the forums but those were on CDs that got stolen too....
Status of me: I finally got a internet connection setup at my new home....56k modem i hate modems.....theres a chance i can get DSL in a month or so....i hope so
anyway, i do have a connection now though so i will try to get Draw club at the very least setup. If you e-mailed me in the last month i'll start getting to it now. I dont have my tablet hooked into my computer at home yet either, so havent had a chance to mess with the graemlins and other wierd icons artifacts. |

Holy shit, that sucks!
It's good to see you got it back though.
Sometimes this world just shits me beyond belief. |

Wow. Close call, Dhabih! Thank god that you got it back.
I don't think the crook, bastard, dishonest wart of society (thief) had any idea that he'd piss off about 4000 people at once when he took your machine.
Just good that the guy didn't proceed to format the disks and fill them with porn or something like that ...
...phew! |

Yep, he didn't pass 'GO!' and didn't collect $200. =)
Dhab, you were freaking lucky they found it... INTACT. Very freaking lucky. |

Well, definately some jolly news everything got returned.
Anyway, good luck with the modem situation. I'd be relaxing for a while after thinking your webpage and whole digital community here took a walk down Boardwalk for a bit. =) |

I think this is enough proof to finally say, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that being blessed by God is something that can actually happen.  |

Yeah man ... the Lord holds His hands upon His beloved artists!
Stolen?
Maybe someone who wasn't satisfied with the crits ...  |

Wow.. it's absolutely amazing that you got it back. A friend of mine had a serious hard drive crash the day after we were talking about backup solutions.. He ended up paying a bundle to get his data recovered. *shudder* |

Wow! I am glad you got it back!
Thank the cops that they found it..did the cops discover who did it or did friends? It was intact too.
The justice system works! I am glad.

Wow, that certainly wasn't on my list of possibilities as to why the forums were down. As with everyone else, I'm glad everything was returned and in working condition.
DSL eh? I hope you don't go through the nightmare I did to get it. Seems like everyone goes through hell to get DSL the first time around. The good news is that once you get it there usually isn't much problem after that. |
