The people who maintain this are volunteers right? If so there shouldn't be too much blame. There isn't enough information. I would have thought sometime between June and January someone would have looked to see if back ups were being made and if the size of the back ups were consistent with the amount of data stored on the website even if they weren't properly checking that back ups were valid. I would expect from this someone has now been assigned to checking that regular back ups are stored and are correct. I have been a part of a few communities were back ups were supposedly being taken but no one was given the responsibility for ensuring they were correct or even actually being made. Once or twice a moderator rampage has lead to a lot of lost data. I would expect this is one of the key lessons they have learned from this.
