Thanks for everything everyone has done to get the site back up. I don't have a clue but I imagine it wasn't easy.
That is all. New site is a bit bright. Can someone make a thing to make it look like it used to be?
-
Finally.
-
Thanks to all who worked so hard to get Geekhack back up and running.

Triple that! Oh now I just sound silly. But it's good to have geekhack back...
Welcome back...
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Those dreams have remained and they've turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya, back here where we need ya.
Not sure how many here are old enough to get that though...
-
I created a new thread and now it is awaiting approval from moderators....I hope this will not be the norm...
-
only group buy thread starts are moderated
-
YAYYY GEEKHACK!! Not sure about this theme though.
-

What is the turn around going to be get a thread going?
-
I'm pretty surprised this all happened so fast. I'm also glad GH seems to be back.
I imagine approving posts will happen pretty quickly, but I wouldn't make any judgments on that until everything is back/done/finished.
I like the small font options, but not the post editor thus far.
-
We're still playing around with things, but it seems to be getting better.
-
everything (yes, including/especially) the theme is provisional at this point. no posts were lost, but we aren't displaying everything at the moment either
-
mucho grats.............
thanks guys for getting us back up
-
Thanks for getting the site back on line.
Currently I cannot see the Classified or Group Buy forums though... is this an item that is not turned 'on' yet? <-- never mind, they appeared for me after posting this...
-
I also cannot see the classifieds, but am hoping this will rectify it.

At least one - but at this point, all the theme songs of the era have kinda blurred into the bassline from Barney Miller.

Couldn't care less about the Graphics here. JUST as long as you are here and running.
I feel like an addict that has just got his major fix........now everything is so relaxxxiiinnnggggg.
I couldn't care less about the world right now. After all, Geekhack is now here. It's a very pathetic life I lead here.

thanks for all the hard work getting the forums back up.
-
Looks wonderful.
-
How good to have geekhack back. Thanks for your work, admins!
-
Nice to see the forum back indeed. Also the new theme is much better than the eye-searing orange :)
-
Loving the SMF, though not sure about the colour scheme yet. Its good to be back, I had to resort to spending my money on Audio and computer parts :o
-
Finally! :)
But yes, a dark theme would be nice...
-
the dark theme from before is still available
-
Thanks for everything everyone
-
I can't see the Classifieds or Group Buy forums either.

you need more posts before you can access those areas of the forum, as noted in the welcome thread
-
It is great to see that the forum is back up. :)
-
I notice you have "+2000" posts again harrison.
-
Ugly color theme.

hahaha, yeah, i asked, if it gets resolved, that's fine... if not, i don't mind having a bit of a sense of humor about it.
-
Good to be home!! 8) 8)...now hopefully I will be able to see the classifieds/GB forums soon..
-
Finally! :)
-
nice work everyone!
-
Your time and effort is much appreciated, thanks for rezzing G H.
-
Thanks to all who worked so hard to get Geekhack back up and running!!! You are really cool!!!
-
Where did the wiki go? And what happened in general cuz I seemed to missed the whole thing...
-
Welcome back!
-
God bless GH !
-
Awesome work everyone. It feels like I was over seas for a bit, but now I'm finally home!
-
One thing I will say about GH being down, is that I've learned to appreciate this site more than ever. Having a place to call home is a privilege in this case. It opened my eyes to see other communities but none felt as good as GH. Glad to see everyone back and doing well :)
-

The site was hacked by a group of a-holes... so it was redesigned from the ground up to be faster and more stable using the Simple Machines forum software vs. the previous vBulletin forum software. A lot of work still remains... You can check more details and some of the history of it over at deskthority here (http://deskthority.net/geekhacker-refugee-camp-f30/geekhack-updates-t3019.html)

Glad to have good ol GH back lurking deskthority just wasn't the same

Agreed. Lurking on Deskthority wasn't as fun. Sadly I have still yet to buy my mechboard eversince the I first posted here. Really need to make a decision hah. Anyway, walcome back geekhack! :D
-
Thanks everyone. Yeah deskthority wasn't the same but at least we had somewhere to go for the time being ; :)
-
Welcome back~~
-
Back to the old house and right on time for Dark Knight Rises midnite opening. Awesome day.
-
It's good to put GH reading back to my daily routine! Kudos to the people working on getting the site back up!
-
Pining for the look and feel of the Geekhack of old? Give the "Nostalgic" theme a try!
-
Completely agree +1
-
Thanks guys

Congrats, i'm sure it's been said a million times, but I find it ironic geekhack got hacked :P
-
Thanks to mkawa, Imav and everybody who fixed the site. I hope the geekhack wiki pages I sent you could be of use.
-
Same kudos from me.
I made the monumental blunder of wrecking my computer (deleted the partition on C:\ it was very late at night and I was doing maintenance on a bunch of old hard drives laying around, totally stupid and careless on my part .... ) about the same time that geekhack.org went down for the last time.
Actually, it probably did me a lot of good to go cold turkey for a while.
Massive thanks to all you guys who put the pieces back together.
Love, Harry

Were you able to recover the partition using testdisk or other tools? I'm continually amazed at how much date can be recovered from a drive.
I'm using the nostalgic theme, though I do think it can be improved upon. I just like darker themes.
Ideally, it'd match my current openbox config: grey-on-grey low contrast. I think it looks simple, elegant, and fantastic. Grey is way more classy than white or black.

Nice to see GH back. I'd just bought my first Poker and was itching for inspiration on how to mod it.
