Hello, all,

Unfortunately, with half of the database now missing, I am forced to close loligoth_dbs purely because adding more feedback to an inconsistent database and through an unreliable method such as LiveJournal is simply not going to work out ( Read more... )

If someone else wants to start their own 'official' feedback community somewhere else, I'm fine with that. But it's probably best to just start all over again to level the playing field and make it fair.

Ugh, that is such a shame. :/

Thanks LJ, for ruining the only sales-feedback database we have.

kuramew October 11 2008, 16:53:22 UTC

Yea, unfortunately LJ wasn't made to serve as a feedback forum and we were doing what we could with what we had.

amanikitty October 11 2008, 17:15:08 UTC

Mmmm, I shouldn't have been lazy and made a feedback page in my LJ. xD;

Oh well. I can do that later. But like... ugh, this community was so helpful D:

I gather the problem is the second half is gone? But it's not? It's back, unless I missed what actually happened and it's not. If we are worried about it we could take this opportunity to export all the data?

kuramew October 11 2008, 16:22:50 UTC

It's old data that Chii filled in from months and months ago to placehold it.

theosakakoneko October 11 2008, 16:44:15 UTC

Oooh, I see. Still seems worth having, in some form. Damn. I have 99 in a months-old version? Wow. I am impressed even with myself. hahaha XD

kuramew October 11 2008, 16:54:28 UTC

Yea, I have a copy from about 10 months ago. It's not relevant so I wouldn't use it.

I think, if people juz being honest about their feedback.

I guess it'll be fine if we juz update based on what they say?

Do we really have to close this up T_T?

kuramew October 11 2008, 16:52:58 UTC

This is not the point.

If it's happened once already, what guarantees it won't happen again?

Countless hours of work was put into this database. I think it needs to be moved and/or recreated with another method (something that I won't be taking part in.) Livejournal is simply too unreliable.

Ture, well, we can improve better ( ... )

not exactly sure how this works but maybe you can use like a google/yahoo cache or that way back machine that archives webpages and see if there is a more recent record on hand with more current numbers- since they just take snapshots of the web at current points in time...
