My current theory about that involves time-travel back to the seventies

Actually I wonder if it's to do with the board-clock as rookie talked of having it reset yesterday.
Trouble is they did not have PC's back in the 70's. :blink:Quote:

i have just had a quick read of this and i think that the reason that i lost a big chunk of my post's was when the change over happened . i ended up with an account that started as a newb .Quote:

J2K4, the remark I made about Germany and Jews in the other thread has been taken the wrong way. It was meant to read as the money the Bush dynasty made fom Nazi Germany, not the Jewish community.
I hope not every post causes this much paranoia.
don't worry...everything was copied to DVDQuote:

Oh crap.
Had to return, eh?
Hobbes and I were just planning your ascention into legend and you had to ruin it by reappearing.
You were much more lovable in absentia.
I've done that since late 2004.
Haven't read a word.
Of anyone's.
I'm only here for the pictures.
Hmmmmm.....boobies.
As a small and let's admit it, somewhat third-worldish forum, we were unable to lease a petard large enough to hoist you from.Quote:

Ironical, isn't it?
What have I got myself into? Can't we debate without paranoia and personal insults?
Huh?Quote:

Which internet are you guys on...clearly I am missing the good stuff.
Someone ask Brian to check the logs, most likely it was a drunk mod.
If someone did hack the board (as extremely unlikely as that is) then it should show up on the logs still. At the very least he needs to check because if there is a security issue then it needs to be addressed else we'll be losing people's posts every time someone pisses off this mystery hacker.Quote:

In all honesty I suspect faulty board software, this forum is bug-ridden and Brian (by his own admission) doesn't know the full ins and outs of it. The only reason I can think that a bug would target you in particular is that your join date is a lot earlier than everyone elses, maybe a large post count coupled with the early join date somehow caused a glitch which deleted you? I dunno I'm just theorizing...
btw Can the admin not find a way to get the posts back from the back-up? I'm sure it's possible...
the mod logs have been checked, no mod did this. still waiting on word from Brian
I told you I knew magic.

KILLER BISCUITS WANTED FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER
(the actual AP headline)
Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of San Diego, was visiting her in-laws and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries.
Several people noticed her sitting in her car with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back of her head. One customer who had been at the store for a while became concerned and walked over to t he car. He noticed that Linda's eyes were now open,and she looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay, and Linda replied that she'd been shot in the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in for over an hour.
The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Linda refused to remove her hands from her head. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head.
A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She initially passed out, but quickly recovered and tried to hold her brains in for over an hour until someone noticed and came to her aid.
Linda is a blonde, but I'm certain that's not relevant

Pro-Syrian Lebanese Government resigns en masse...
This is kinda significant, eh?
Did the U.N. do something?
What could possibly have prompted this?
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,148962,00.html
Syrian forces have been in Lebanon nigh unto 30 years, vid.
Why do you think this is happening now?
Actually (since you asked), YES!
If Lebanon had need to be occupied, and the choice were mine to make, I'd pick Israel over Syria in a heartbeat.
If the Syrian occupation force is to leave Lebanon, who should guarantee Lebanon's sovereignty?
Who will, if it comes to that?
Yes, yes, I'm quite sure an Israeli occupation of Lebanon would cause massive outrage in all corners of the mideast.
I was speaking hypothetically.
Funny-
The entire Muslim world preaches the sin of the Christian/Zionist infidel, and much of the rest of the world agrees, quaking in it's collective boots at the prospect of Western religious fervor and all it's ramifications, but nobody seems too upset by fanatic Islamicists, at least from a religious standpoint.
Nobody wants to be bombed, but I wonder why western Christianity is regarded as a greater evil than fundamentalist Islam, which is as expansive as Soviet Communism, but somehow much more acceptable.
I may not often agree with you j2, but now I don't have any late-night entertainment. ;)
If the board was backed-up daily (as was recently stated), I don't see why your posts couldn't be restored. It'd be very queer to have all the backups similarly affected. I'm hoping it was "just" a software glitch.
:shuriken:
I dont even think a mod can do this as the posts have not been deleted as a mod would since they would still be visible to all mods in a soft delete. If they are deleted permentaly in the mod option then the post count of the poster is reflected thus the post count would have been set back to zero then. I think theres is something within the join date that may unravel this perhaps. The only other thought I can have on this is to do a board backup to before the loss of all the posts but this would in turn lose all posts posted from then untill now...
There are plenty of people with an earlier join date tho.. :unsure:
Thanks for your confidence Hobbes :P
J2 and myself often cross swords; however politics and religion aside, me and him are mates, so im sure he knows i have nowt to do with it ;)
Its a bugger though that I cant quote him on some things now... especially that post where he vowed never to vote Republican whilst the Bush family were members of that party.... Im sure you remember that one? :whistling
Of course.Quote:
