5 year old backups don't even have scripts that work properly with the new engine so wouldn't it be more trouble than its worth in the long run to revive it?
I personally don't quite understand why if a developer of a server didn't want to bother saving a backup that long. Why should they expect Graal to save them in pristine condition. If I remember correctly, servers weren't even backed up as often as they are now.
Again though, just to repeat for those that like to skip through these threads.
If you have a server online and for whatever reason some disaster strikes. You can still request a backup or rollback to repair it. The time it takes to do it should, in theory, be reduced as there won't be dozens of other requests waiting in line before you.
If you however wish to get it restored instantly, I suggest each server make backups of their own.
