I make daily backups (automated) so i really dont go out of my way to make a super current backup prior to updating my forums.
ohh, well if we are talking about vB then the answer would have been different. lol i made backups of my backups back then. (vB4)I used to be like that... then when I was upgrading over at vB and I lost the current posts and such and had to go back to yesterday's backup, my members were.. hey we're missing posts.. hey my post count was higher...
After that I always take a current backup... just in case...

Rule #1: ALWAY backup
Rule #2: ALWAYS verify your backup
Rule #3: ALWAYS create a second backup
Rule #4: ALWAYS store your second backup seperate from the first
Rule #5: Trust nothing and no one: not tape, not disk, nothing. ALWAYS assume every damned thing that can break, will and at the worst possible time.
