Posts going missing??

Has anyone else noticed this since they rebooted the forum this afternoon?

Re: Posts going missing??

Yes, all after 1:16 pm are gone. You can see it in the list, no posts after.

... but there may be some new players now. It’s okay. The East Wind takes us all in the end.

Well, apart from the ones that people are making right now.

Re: Posts going missing??

The funny thing is that Susi's VF thread from 12:26 pm had disappeared after the first breakdown and is now back

Re: Posts going missing??

I've posted some stuff after the forum came back up... it's gone.

I'm honestly holding back on sharing 'good stuff' at the moment.

Any news on when, or if already, it's safe to post?

I felt so deprived all day.  I needed to be with my people!

Yes, I did.  The entire thread I posted this morning about the "VF behind the scenes video" is gone.  My OP and all subsquent posts in the thread (I can't remember exactly but I think there were at least 7 or so replies to that thread) vanished without a trace.

Plus I finally got the hang of posting a picture in Ben's picture thread and it has disappeared as well.

I agree with Phantom, I don't think I'll risk posting anything good until this is cleared up. I appreciate that this is a frustrating problem for the admin.  You have my wish for a speedy solution to be found.

Re: Posts going missing??

And the whole afternoon and evening I thought I had a virus spoiling the connection with the forum. It's almost embarrassing how the mere thought made me hyperventilate!

Re: Posts going missing??

Has anything else like this happened in the last few hours or so?

I spoke to Support yesterday. They basically said that when another forum was attacked, they took down ours as a precuationary measure so they could deal with it, and when it was booted back up, we were given an old version of the forum that was saved 12 hours before the initial attack.

Some hours after that, they then found a newer version of the forum, saved only 2 hours before the attack, so we were rebooted again and given that newer version instead. From what I can understand, it was posts that were posted between the 12 hour version and the 2 hour version that went missing.

So far today everything seems to work fine.

Re: Posts going missing??

So, I suppose there's no chance of retrieving those lost posts?

That's a shame.

Well, I guess the good news is that all is well now.

Re: Posts going missing??

Just an aside: Val, I like that your posts always have a positive attitude. Your glasses are never only half full. 
I wonder: it was not our forum that got attacked, right? So no fear of our personal details being hijacked?

According to my information it was not our forum that was attacked.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

I had a horrible dream that the forum went away and I had to go out and get a life....................
