Guest the13thJedi Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Why'd all of it go? I can see getting rid of the junk, but there was alot of really useful info in this forum. Countless hours of posting by Wart, Kanigget, Acid, Myself and all the others gone. Granted not all of it was useful, but there was some really good stuff in here. Boo-Hiss! Okay, I'm done ranting now. Time to get over it and start building it up again. -the13thJedi ------------------ [This message has been edited by the13thJedi (edited August 22, 2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markenobi Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Well, maybe we were taking up a bit more than our share of the memory on the server. (This WAS the largest forum on the boards.) But oh well, I guess we'll have to start over (just to be sure, I checked the "Show all topics" option. The old posts have been wiped out). ------------------ "Bring 'em on!

Guest Jedi Kanigget Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 If there was a memory problem, only trimming was needed, not a complete wipe. So...what happened?

Guest Dave Maul Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Kurgan said he didn''t do anything. Just out of interest, who was it? Or is it some kind of automatic thing, where you get a certain number of posts and then the memory is wiped? ------------------ Dave Maul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Acid_Rain327 Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 That, or the server crashed/updated/cleared them itself. It happens to gamers.com boards all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mace_Windu Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Im sure they would never bother trimming the forums. Why bother going through all those posts to find useful information??? It wouldn't be valuable enough for them to take the time to do it. Maybe they cleared it in anticipation to the DC release. Maybe they were expecting more posts in an alrady crowded forum. Whatever it was im sure they had a good reason. BTW whats happened here the last like 3 months? I havent been here in awhile ------------------ May the force be with you....

Guest Darth Wart Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Personally I'm baffled and not a little angry: 1. If they were going to dump EVERY SINGLE PAST POST, couldn't an admin have come on the board the day before with a warning, letting us know what was about to happen? 2. Or an apology afterwards, at the very least? I, for one, am mystified! Failing to do this was disrespectful. 3. Also, why couldn't they have simply dumped posts that hadn't been touched in, say, 10 days? That would have cleared up a lot of space without being so drastic. 4. Some of those posts were good, relevant, and high quality, like the tribute string to Guinness. I spend a lot of time typing all that stuff in. Come to think of it, I'm hootin' mad! ------------------ Wart Get your free JPB guide at: http://jedipowerbattlesguide.homestead.com/JPB.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
