Down time and lost posts

Subject: Down time and lost posts Mon Sep 22, 2008 8:30 am

I visited the forum for admin to check out about the recent problem. These are the posts from the team working on correcting the problem:

Quote :: Hello Everyone,

Yes we have had a General Error issue with all forumotion forums at this time. But Please remain calm as The techs are working on resolving this issue as we speak. This problem will be rectified as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvience.

Quote :: We're truly sorry for this huge issue here, technical issues with the servers encountered during night time here so it's been an hell of a problem to get them all fixed.

Your forums are all getting back to normal now, only issue now is that all posts done after sunday morning aren't working.
We will be providing you with major new functionalities in the next days as a compensation

Quote :: all of yesterdays posts are blank now..... does that mean the posts are gone for good???

Answer to last question: yes.

The posts that are empty are permanently lost. Some forums are experiencing far more problems than we are, so we're lucky that the forum is back to normal.

I reposted all my lost posts this morning.

Peter,

Did you lose your signature or did you not have one?

Subject: Re: Down time and lost posts Mon Sep 22, 2008 9:12 am

I don't think I had one. Everything seems to be working fine now.

Gordon, you must have one heck of a memory. Or did you have just one post that vanished?

Subject: Re: Down time and lost posts Mon Sep 22, 2008 4:49 pm

I had 3 that disappeared. What I reposted is not word for word what I had before, but has the same general meaning. On some of my posts I was able to do some copying and pasting from files on my computer for some of my posts.

The thread topic from yesterday, "Do You Remember When" has disappeared entirely... even the title.

You're right Brew. We also lost the shallow American. I suppose if we lost one of those it won't be too bad, eh?

Well, I think I saw some posts from Sunday, but didn't check in yesterday, so I don't know what was lost and what was not. Is ignorance truly bliss?

Yes Zada,
some of those posts were getting a bit harsh. Seems that it takes just one person to ignite a fire, but I think the fire went out, however one of those candles seems to relights itself.

What? Do you mean that the downtime was intentional? I thought the server went down. confused

We seem to have lost our smiley function unless we go to 'edit'! Down time and lost posts 514350

Abe, let the fire go out.

Subject: Re: Down time and lost posts Wed Sep 24, 2008 8:37 am

I thought I had.

Abe didn't start the fire.
