Re: Restoring accounts (58 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Sol, I noticed this morning under my billing profile that I have an account balance of -2024. Is that an error, or just some quirk of how the billing profile is displayed onscreen?

It's probably a quirk with how I had to adjust the accounts for the free six months. I'll look into it but you won't have to pay for some time .

Providing you're doing everything you possibly can to avoid another crash like that. At the very least, and considering the subscription fees, our intellectual property oughta be safeguarded.

Hi John,

There will always be crashes. In this case, the recent backups did not work properly. We are taking extra care to make sure our backups are functional. That being said, TheNextBigWriter is not a storage system. I would highly recommend you backup your own writing even if you are saving it to Google or some other cloud based service. I know someone who saved everything they had to Google and then their account was hacked. They lost it all.

I am not the only one running the site. Even if I go, there are others who take the reins.

Re: Thank you, Sol (8 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Thank you but I still feel terrible. The last two weeks have been tough. I do appreciate the kind words. At one point, I wasn't even sure it made sense to keep the site going. This thread makes me feel like we made the right decision.

Topic: Restoring accounts (58 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Hi all,

I'm working to restore all accounts, add the bonus time, and also provide any lost points. I've received emails, PMs, and forum threads so I'm having a bit of trouble keeping track of it all. If you still need help with your account, can you post it in this thread and I'll take care of it.

Thanks,
Sol

Re: Updating previously posted work (11 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Hey Sol,
Glad the site's back up and at 'em. I was close to 200 points, I think. What comes to mind is 189 points. I only have 2 old short stories remaining. I'm not sure I've posted enough to get 500 points, but I'll take what you can give me. How about 300-400?
Thanks. You must have gone through some heart burn.
George FLC

All set, George.
Taking a sip.

Re: Updating previously posted work (11 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Good suggestion. I can't easily give everyone 500 points but if existing writers ask, I will provide it to them.

Yup. This will happen. We just need a day or two. There's a bug in the membership system we need to resolve first.

Topic: Site Update (10 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)

Hi all,

Once again, I apologize for the crash of the site and the data loss. If you haven't read the statement on what happened, you can do so here:

https://www.thenextbigwriter.com/import … or-members

We're now working to fix bugs and get the site running smoothly. I realize some of you are being told you have expired memberships. Please post below it that is the case and we will fix it. It may take a few days to straighten everything out.

Thanks in advance for your patience.

Sol
