Missing posts

BWX · Dec 10, 2004, 11:05 AM

The other day I remember seeing that I had about 9600 posts.

I just realized I lost a whole bunch. I don't think I am the only one either.

**dj_stick** · Dec 10, 2004, 11:35 AM

mmm i think the thread of pure randomness has been removed

hence my loss of over 1500 posts

the 3 word story thread has also been closed

maybe the large threads were causing problems

TJ- · Dec 10, 2004, 11:47 AM

i was almost on 500, getten excited for my avy, then i look and i lost like 20 posts..... eeerrrrrrr

CDsDontBurn · Dec 10, 2004, 11:54 AM

i haven't yet noticed if any of my posts have been taken. But closed threads you should be able to keep your post count, just not post in that particular thread anymore right?

**dj_stick** · Dec 10, 2004, 11:58 AM

that's true, but the random thread is just gone

BWX · Dec 10, 2004, 12:01 PM

Yeah but if they remove it your posts get removed. Makes sense to me- I don't think I had 200 posts in there- who knows. No big deal really anyway.

It's just a have-no-life-o-meter anyway..

~~squall Leonhart~~ · Dec 10, 2004, 12:53 PM

im down from over 1000 to 496

guess the random thread was too big

Zardon · Dec 10, 2004, 01:12 PM

we are trying to narrow down some issues right now, the 10,000+ thread was removed to test some issues. apologies for everyone who has lost posts.

Danhill · Dec 10, 2004, 01:27 PM

Will it come back??

***craig5320*** · Dec 10, 2004, 01:42 PM

No it won't.

~~squall Leonhart~~ · Dec 10, 2004, 02:21 PM

ok, as long as it wasn't in vain

now lets get back to sanity and actually helping people instead of posting random silly things....

unfortunately... im not very good at the first bit... but the second i am

Yes guys start a new one and we will sticky it, spam to your hearts content,. I think after this week everyone needs a bit of a laugh. its been one hell of a week behind the scenes. im off to sleep for a few days

**dj_stick** · Dec 12, 2004, 12:04 AM

Started and stuck, but seeing as copy&paste isn't working for me atm, you'll have to find it yourself

mainman · Dec 12, 2004, 02:53 AM

All those hours of quality spamming lost....ohhhh the pain....

**dj_stick** · Dec 12, 2004, 05:21 AM

i love that avatar

mainman · Dec 12, 2004, 06:58 AM

ahhh dont worry im sure it will be removed soon..

BWX · Dec 12, 2004, 07:05 AM

Well there are little kids that visit

Zardon · Dec 12, 2004, 01:18 PM

Indeed there are BWX and I have had chats with mainman recently about specific things. You guys need to understand gold members are meant to be site role models as well as the cream of the crop, not guys who post avatars of people or cartoon characters having anal sex. Gold medal status isnt an ego stroke or a good excuse to break forum rules or attack staff members. We have kids of under 10 on this site, whats the next step, flash signatures depicting orgies?

Incidentally didnt you already have an avatar removed recently

? Ive removed the avatar mainman, please feel free to replace it with something more suitable. my patience with this stupidness is at a low.
