Hey all, Some time this evening, Lioden encountered a hard drive fail on its database server. The admin team have been working tirelessly since then to try and correct the situation and retrieve as much data as possible from our daily backup. Fortunately we were able to restore most of the data back to this morning, but unfortunately we lost all your private messages, user logs and friend requests. The server has been rolled back to 2.53 am Lioden time February 4th. Anything past that moment is gone, thankfully that is not even half of a day of gameplay. We are very sorry for the inconvenience and will strive to right the situation by investing in new ways of doubling the protection of our servers. For anyone who purchased Gold Beetles today after 2.53am Lioden time, please send a message to Abbey (#1) with your PayPal Transaction or Receipt ID in text format (no screenshots or images) and she will work to restore your GB to you as quickly as possible.  EDIT: If you are sad that you lost awesome deals on trades, visited studs etc, check your browser's history and lioden links you visited during those 6 hours. I am sure you will find most of things again!  0 players like this post! Like? Edited on 05/02/15 by Abbey (#1) |

I'm super glad the site is back up! But oh man, this gorgeous lioness that I claimed a bit before the crash is gone, I'm so bummed about that. She was a gorgeous fiery lioness with so many markings. DX 0 players like this post! Like? |

I wish we had no rollover today. Because I just noticed I lost everything (hunts, patrols, etc) and have to feed all of my lionesses again and I'm not sure to have enough time. I thought it was only the 6 past hours that were undone, but looks like it's the whole day. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Yeah I lost a whole day too. Rolled over (because I didn't know what had happened) and now all my girls are starving - again - and I only have 1.5 hours to fix it and no time >__ 0 players like this post! Like? |

This doesn't happen often at all... I've experienced two rollbacks so far, first time was that money bug a while ago and second time was now. Two times is not often. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Disappointed about some of my messages being gone, but at the same time a hard drive crash could have been so, so much worse... Good work getting so much back, guys! And Shadow (#17046), you can't exactly prevent a hard drive from burning itself out. Usually one day it's working fine, and the next day poof. I've lost many a file that way @.@ And in the 2 years I've been playing, I've seen maaaybe 3 or 4 rollbacks? And this is the first one (I know of) due to hardware failure. I'd say they're doing pretty darn good. 0 players like this post! Like?Edited on 05/02/15 by Silverfish (#6888) |

@Catgirl: I am very sorry about your lost messages but unfortunately there is no way for us to retireve them :( Coders tried very hard to get them back but they were lost when the harddrive burnt. @Shadow: Our coders do try their best to keep Lioden in tip-top shape but this situation was out of their control; the server is what was damaged in the hardware failure and that was out of the admins' control I am afraid. :( They are working to find alternative protective measures for the future so that situations such as these can hopefully be avoided. 0 players like this post!

I'm glad that the site is back up and I don't mind the messages being lost. ^-^; Though.. What made the hardware fail if you mind me asking? I understand if you don't know exactly. I'm just being curious. 0 players like this post! Like? |

No! All my hunts are gone! Does this mean that all the stats that I have gotten today from my 20(!!!!!!) hunts are also gone? -sigh- I hope there will be no rollover after this.... I mean, I have lost a whole day!!!! It is like I just fed my pride and went off! 0 players like this post! Like?Edited on 05/02/15 by Axel (#6627) |

With all the people bummed in this News thread, I thought I'd say that the Lioden staff (especially the coders, and the mods/admins who have to deal with so many angry people and questions!) is amazing. Seriously, no butt-kissing here, you guys did what you could with a horrible and potentially devastating situation (I read somewhere that we might have lost Lioden entirely). Thank you all SO MUCH for all the hard work you all put in, and the work you still have to do to make the site even more stable. <3 I lost a lot of the things most other people did, like stats and food from patrols and hunts, lions from trades, insta-birthed cubs, Heart Shells and literally whole levels of experience/impression, and especially messages with really important info... (No, I don't have a life, why do you ask? XD) But these things happen. I think everyone needs to realize that sometimes things like this happen, and that it could have been much, much worse. Count your blessings, eh? Again, thank you, Lioden staff, for being super awesome! <3 Don't beat yourselves up over something no one could prevent. 0 players like this post!
