Recent downtime

[Elliot]

I'm just making this thread to let everybody know the forums were offline earlier because I was upgrading to the latest version of vBulletin. However, while upgrading everything went horribly wrong and I had to restore from a backup I had locally. We still have all the posts and users. The database was unaffected. If you have any questions post below and I'll answer them.

Can't you just change the file permissions? o.o

That's because I wiped the entire directory and restored form a backup. I couldn't edit permissions because I don't have access to the cpanel on Alex's server.
