I think it's inspiring. You've got to have a really strong community to be able to bounce back from that - not just once, but repeatedly. Everyone's here because they've found a community they want to be a part of, and because they want to keep writing with the people they've found here even if what they wrote before isn't there any more. Everyone pulls together and keeps on going. It's a great group.
Basically it means that the forum's servers are entirely wiped clean - all posts, threads, accounts etc. get deleted and we basically start from the very beginning again.
