The backup is done only to allow concerned players save important topics and relevant posts that they want to keep.

Quick question: will history archive after backup rollback stay, or that's just temporary for saving selected threads?

I am afraid that newest board staff can't comprehend what they have done in this wipeut of whole ogame.org history... Sooner or later there will be new board staff, but the ruins of this generation will stay ...
Decade of ogame history gone because some thought that this is a briliant idea to speed up forum.

Yesterday I walked into library and noticed that thousands and thousands of books are missing.
I asked librarian what's going on, what happened with all those beautiful books collected from all over the world and he responded: "oh, place where we store books became overcrowded, this caused us problems, so we burned all old books. Several thousands of them". Now there's place for all new books!"

Only the sections that are still here, not already deleted ones.

Then the damage is already done and books burned... :/

Does this include also already deleted sections? As we see, there are several UNIs completely wiped out.

Or you gave us choice to keep some stuff from those unis which had a luck to survive wipeout? Big damage seems already done...

I have just made this suggestion direct to the Ogame Product Director, but I will post it here as well.

What I suggest is load up a back up of the .org board into a fresh forum maybe something like "The History Of Ogame Universes" have all but maybe 1 section as read only, then deleted all posts newer then say 2014 and outside of the universe sections.

and if it's possible to load other community backups onto it as well, bring other languages into it as well.
It would allow the main boards to be cleared up (improving performance), without erasing the vast amount of history involves.

I would be willing to help set it up and organise it.

This sound awesome. Thank you for your effort. Effort nowaday game board staff sadly isn't capable to invest into comunity they manage.. :/

In case this will go through and deletion of newer stuff would require manual work or something (although purge in mysql database directly would be faster and more effective I think) I am willing to contribute with some of my free time too. Just poke me in case of need.

But what is the use from a board if there aren't things people post?
Just for a news?

It's not like this was the biggest database on the world...
Beside that archive can be always keept separatedly from main board if that's the case. Deleting big part of the board as solution... is terrible and very unique lazy solution.

Me too. What a dissapointment.
So much ogame history from best ogame years deleted forever. Just few weeks ago I was reading whole history of Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah alliance. And then Cursed... We don't see those things in ogame today.
What a shame. New guys in charge can't understand this ...

Still trying to find this Labelfilter on the right to find the uni I want among 3 options: Sort by, Time period and Status ...or I should look something else?

Thanks for your answer.

Hello,
any idea what happened with certain pre-merged UNIs archive?

Archives pre-merged unis

UNIs like 7,8,9....14? Gone?

There seems to be only part of UNIs selected and saved out of sudden.
2 - 3 weeks ago archive still worked properly.

I knew that nyc hasn't fleetsave last night and he was away after server logout... however because rl circumstances I wasn't able to do it so someone other took a glory and I took a profit

You have harvested 259.493.900 Metal and 0 Crystal.

PaPpA no matter what it's a great hit - congratulations.

This lil' deut baiting fleet (always sitting on inactive moon with strange activity somewhere far away...) imho. caused a lot of frustration among numerous fleeters in this renewed uni. I am wondering how many players burnt their precious deut on that
NikeJoshua accepted defeat graciously.

NikeJoshua, you're maybe not big fleeter in this uni however you seems damn capable miner so you don't need good luck with rebuild at all - Keep up the good work!

Hey, old bugger, so you're really leaving? What a shame, what a shame.. it would be damn nice to play with you in same uni a little, but then again... I completely understand you. All those numbers today.. it's not the same. I wish you all the best - legend

Hey timma, can you imagine that we (players from old uni) know each other more than half decade? Impressive, as it's only a game, isn't it? I wish you all the best!

Quote from BOOMboomBOOMboom

Was out last nite in London, and was a ruckus going on, and i tried to
stop a big fight, where some guy was getting " beeb " kicked out of him,
and when Police arrived Arrested all, and me too, and would not listen,
that i had nothing to do with it.

That is very unfortunate and I am sorry to hear it. Player with your attitude should stay in this game so I hope you won't quit.

I found in this rainy day some little time for ogame.

Most oldies never had big overlook at double digit unis gameplay as those unis was simply out of their scope and interest so some words here and there shouldn't be taken so seriously
I had a chance to get some insight into Red Ale gameplay few years ago through our common friend from that time and I agree with most people here that he was a terrific good player. Such personal opinion don't take away any credit from PaPpA, winner of this crash. Right opposite, it's always pleasure to know that defeated player was a good player.

That's impressive damage and even better profit, AMOTION.
Congratulations

Some great destruction here, AMOTION. Congratulations

Thank you - to everyone.

Mess started in "Col.Ship Recy. 9" line. I though that I will just convert it again, however after c/p into takana converter same mistake appear again. Stange. I will send manual edit to mods.

I didn't get all df as defender appeared online with some recs but well... can't complain.

Your recycler(s) (9500) have a total cargo capacity of 190.000.000. You have harvested 71.169.100 Metal and 43.809.400 Crystal.

NUK, I wish you more luck in future.

Quote from RaZmAn

Let me start off buy saying how terrible the defender is. People tell me he was a top player in u14, well this only tells me how bad u14 is (was).

I need to object! RaZmAn Uni14 wasn't bad, but because specific reasons rather in bad shape. Uni14 was only double digit uni with reputation of unpleasant uni in my active times It was only double digit uni which REGULARY filled .org wide top10 list with huge hits - as direct comparisation with years older single digit unis. Double digit unis wasn't really in scope of oldies from single digit unis but 14 was exception - you all knew it

If I remember correct it was also at some point uni with smallest number of players and 2nd biggest (strongest?) fleet in whole org. Not because it would be boring but because we was so damn agressive, so damn good In those times legendary players in unis 1, 2, 3.. needed year and half to reach first billion TD hit. We did it in barely 6 -7 months existence. Two agressive top opponents online almost 24/7 clash with a great profit. Damn, those were the days!
I was playing in few unis/communities, but never meet uni filled with so much passion, dedication and competition.

Timma is cool guy but he wasn't top player. Many top players was exterminated, some left and some gave accounts away. Timma is ok but I am afraid that he didn't have dedication neither will to do much with this account (was it from Kahless?).

Urza great hit! Years ago I couldn't do it (neither want to do it) because account owner (very decent, capable player) was my friend and later.. wasn't really important anymore.
