Missing Posts

[DavidG]

In case anyone doesn't frequent the threads were this has happened I though I start a new one. There are at least 2 threads I know of that have suddenly had large numbers of Posts dissapear. The OT - the President one and the Mysteries of the Universe one.

Anyone know what's up?

I don't have the slightest idea. The only thing I know is, that I did not delete any post.

Could be a minor forum bug. I once lost all my Posts, I couldn't get anything when I searched for my Member number or topics of my post or words I knew I used (misspeiligns and all). Then the came back. Wierd.

It makes me really curious. I just can't imagine someone taking the time neccesary to delete all those Posts. It's not an easy thing to do I can tell you. And from the mysteries thread? There was nothing remotly offensive in the mysteries thread.

It makes me wonder if it's not some technical glitch with the forum software instead of someone actually deleting these intentionally.

Maybe an admin fixed the problem.

Curioser and curioser here is the current link to the mysteries thread:

Notice how it is different from yours? Also notice how your thread has a whole slew of Posts dated January 29. It is also missing the first batch of Posts.
