Human3rror is Broke.

yeahimawesome

I broke my blog. This is somewhat characteristic of me though… what sucks is that all my backups are apparently gone as well.

So, Human3rror is pretty much gone. All forms of media have vanished. All my Wordpress Themes, all my pictures, videos, memories… I really didn’t have those saved.

Catastrophic loss.

I’m going to have to do some thinking about my “next steps” here.

***Update***

I’ve updated with a picture. Also like to make it clear that this is not all Wordpress’s fault (2.8 Upgrade worked just fine on ChurchCrunch.com). I was toying with my server this morning. My backups are at at home on a local drive… but I’m thinking this might be an opportunity to “start fresh”… Who knows.

    That sux. Atleast your content (previous posts) are still around.

    But you filed this post under Fun? hmm

  2. Doug says:

    John, i’m so sorry to hear all that. Doesnt MT have a back up?

  3. David says:

    Eek!

    At least you filed this under Fun though… o.0

  4. t3xtual says:

    Wow. I've done the same thing before. It's never fun…Can MT help you at all? I mean…for what they charge for hosting they should have a backup somewhere.

    right? isn't that hot

  6. scottim says:

    Dude…sorry! That's a tough loss, but I know you will rebuild faster, stronger and even more cutting edge…can't wait to see what the new human3rror comes up with!

  7. anivus says:

    now is a great time to remind everyone to totally back up their blog :)

  8. Tomi says:

    Dude, I love your Ipseity theme. Gutted that its lost… You've got talent, and you can never lose that!

  9. Dang sorry about that dude.

  10. buchanan23 says:

    bummer deal man. But knowing you (for the short time that I have) I am sure that this means you are 'bout to bounce back with something epic! Looking forward to what is coming with your new opportunity to recreate!

  11. You should've been in PR. You can "spin" anything!

  12. Well done on the breakage!! What exactly did you do??… cos you obviously kept hold of the mySQL

  13. Seth says:

    your tag "I Break Stuff" seems to be seeping with irony right now…

  14. Ancoti says:

    From chaos opportunity; from the ashes will arise the Phoenix.

  15. dewde says:

    Crap-on-a-stick dude. I am so sorry to hear this!!!!!

    ugh.

    peace|dewde

  16. but ur THE-FREAKING-HUMAN3RROR. i'm sure you will figure it out.

  17. I did the 2.8 upgrade last night on @IssacharNetwork and it went okay, but I know where your at. I have been consolidating content on my personal blog, under a better common theme, changing the url, and there may be more to come. Have fun John!

  18. Dang dude, super EPIC FAIL, but maybe for the best!

  19. Sorry to hear it dude. You never lose anything until you stop backing it up. Murphy's Law.

  20. duregger says:

    #FIAL – Spin this into a re-branding strategy.

  21. oh no! now i'm gonna go paranoid and backup like crazy!

  22. chrisdat says:

    First new post should be on how to automatically backup your blog!! I am so sorry to hear this. You are amazingly positive, considering the scope of your loss. I look forward to the fresh Human3rror.

  23. chrissulli says:

    Thats what you get for crashing my my browser every day. Its called karma. Note: It crashed as I came here to leave this comment

  24. oops, nothing like a clean slate eh?

  25. Jim says:

    start from scratch

  26. WOW. Did you run out of other things to break?

    No seriously, YIKES – but at least you're looking for the positive in it!

  27. Ouch… I was nervous prior to uploading 2.8 so I called Hostmonster and they walked me through backing my blog up… Sorry to hear that bro.

    come back singing the old LL Cool J tune… "Don't call it a come back, I've been hear for years!" bobbing your head. Still looking forward to hooking up!

  28. statedog says:

    Great. It happened the day I was coming to download a few of your themes. Stinks a little for me. But I know it sucks a lot for you. Sorry, man.

  29. John, that stinks bigtime! But you have inspired me, and apparently others, to back up! Terribly sorry.

  30. techdrawl says:

    Epic loss to the world. You had the best images and videos of just about any blog out there. You'll create many, many more :-)

  31. Mikes says:

    I was really surprised when I checked your site today! It's not as beautiful as it was. But don't you worry, everything has a purpose under the sun.Change is good, change is for the better.
