I think Mr Resig got pissed at all the plebs posting battery plugins ( spammers )

Mind you needs an overhaul, the search method is rank.
Felix my mate who is one of the devs, said, it could take a week !

Well jQuery Plugins is a lesson to us all. I for one am very very saddened at the news on their blog today.

Read about it here

One comment the author made, which i find amazing... and have been in that situation a cpl of times myself.

I didn’t back up the database before I began this process. At this point, you can probably see where this story is headed. Later in the week, while I was attempting to delete four spam items, I was left completely horrified when the results of the operation reported that the remaining 10% — every single plugin remaining in the database — had been purged. All that remained was a year-old backup

Lesson to us all.

I feel bad for these guys. I really hope they are getting sympathy for this.

weve all done it, not that we like to admit. that is why it is worth using something rsync based, just make sure.

If I have a critical project, can't beat backintime, and a separate drive. On top of daily backups.

If anyone needs to get hold of any plugins, you can use wayback.
