Accidental Destruction

Posted on April 25, 2017

Basically I went to delete a droplet and accidentally destroyed a very important webserver. I didn’t have backups enabled, or any backups on my personal computer. I’m not sure what to do, if theres anything to do. Can someone help me out?

Once you click destroy and confirm, there’s no turning back without backups to restore from.
