    Yesterday maintenance got me thinking. What will happen if the forum is taken down by legal authorities due to piracy ? There is super valuable content here and there is some content that needs updates. If a new forum is built, how will we know the new url ?
    My suggestion: There should be an email address(a dummy one just for this situation) that we can reach to and get info from the admins. Otherwise, no staff member will be reachable.

    In the unlikely case that this will happen all the members will be contacted via e-mail.
    That is why it is important to make sure that your e-mail information is up to date.

    In the event of a 'raid' how accessible are the contributors' details?

    Your personal payment information is not visible (since all payments are processed on a different site).
    On the forum the only information available (to me only) is your e-mail and IP.
