1 month ought to have been enough and had I seen coming that this asshole would up and leave overnight I wouldn't even have kept the server there to begin with. You put a certain degree of faith in a hosting company. The only reason for me to do daily backups is if I suspect the host might screw me over any day, and like I said in that case I would leave ASAP. This was sudden, no warning at all. Didn't even get an e-mail or anything. Server just went POOF.
Also, in my own defense, 2 days before the scheduled backup is about the worst time this could have happened, obviously.
Anyway, don't think I'm not kicking myself in the head right now because I'm just at pissed at the situation and myself as anyone else here. We all had substantial time investments in our little world and it sucks to lose it. Doesn't mean we have to go around pointing fingers.
