i believe whats happened is Jimmy's changed server and not moved the user files and updated his website telling us whats happened.

THis is very annoying as i was about to upload progress on Scorched Turf.

Yeah, I apologize. What happened was I changed the nameservers last night, and while I was transfering today, it propogated on me, in less than 24 hours, which is crazy. So it's been a mad rush to get everything back to normal.
The plan was to make a clean switch without anybody noticing, but as you can see... I FAILED.

gah ha, anyway, will the files be the same on both (old and new) servers, or shall i update them myself

btw i spend 14+ hours aday online (starting bout 11 ending bout 2) so i'll never miss anything at night

EDIT: i got into PHP admin with a blank password but apparently i have no databases. I guess Jimmy hasnt done it

Oneka: please DO, not like I need users or anything If you don't like my free service, please feel free to go somewhere else.

Yeah np, F15H

Everyone else's sites should be just about restored, would be done, but one site has taken 3 HOURS.

So is everything back to normal?

When I log into net2ftp theres no files , altho I can still see my old site (the 2 day backup), Im a moron when it comes to thies things, thus, I am confused.

@Jimmy: could you delete the contents of my site but not the subdomain - a couple of folders on there are annoying me and a want to get rid of them

and can you also sort out the login script - it does not accept my password or username though the ftp site does

thanks - your a great host
