This was posted on my forums, but I wanted to post it here to inform others why my server is down:
Hey guys, I really appreciate all of your support! Unfortunately, my hard drive is toast. It is most likely due to overheating. I was told that the data would not be recoverable at this point. :( Not only have I lost everything server related (database, custom quests, custom source), but also a lot of personal data too.
So, right now, I cannot bring the server up because it doesn't exist anymore, which really sucks :( Even if I am able to get a new hard drive and somehow get another operating system, I would have to start the whole server from scratch.
I'm sorry about this guys, I was very stupid and did not have it backed up to a cloud like I should have. I planned on doing it, but obviously, I procrastinated, thinking this wouldn't happen to me, but boy was I wrong. Ugh.
Hopefully, I can get something rolling again
