Alexx Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I posted four messages this morning. For some bizarre reason it was as if I was the only one posting. Now I see that those four posts appear to be gone, as if I never made them. I spent a bit of time on a couple of them. Also, the dates just below my four posts were all from Dec. 18th and earlier. Can somebody explain what happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 you sure your internet connection wasn't freaky? i've thought mine "disappeared" before as well, but usually turns out that there are similar threads. or maybe.....do-do, do-do, do-do, do-do......

Well, you see the message right above yours right, the email notification states the name of my topic, which now doesn't exist. I started that topic, but it is nowhere to be found, and the topic number has been reassigned. I guess forum software is "developing" to the point where we can all be on the same forum but each not see the same thing, how sad. This entire morning, all I saw was posts that dated to Dec. 18th, then my four responses. lol, after three hours, there were only 3 hits on my topic, and they probably were all mine. Don't mean to be paranoid, but this can't be a good thing, everywhere else I was this morning I had no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our posts were only a minute apart, so that's why you didn't see it. Kind of bummed about those lost posts, I spent a bit of time on a couple of them, well over half an hour for the three lengthy ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I replied to your post because the same thing was happening to me. Almost every time I've logged in over the past few days there were no new posts, and it appeared that I was the only person on the forum at the time. And now my post is gone along with your thread. What the heck?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexx Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 From the site help section:http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=68874 Thanks for that, but it is a bit disconcerting to actually see your own response at the top, the page full of topics, yet it's a mirage. I thought something was wrong because the topic number five on page one (the first four I had responded to over a two hour span) was dated Dec. 18th, aka three days ago. I suspected that maybe the forum had been down for everyone else and that I was the first one to get back on. But a couple of hours later when the new two new topics I started (one about fuses, the other asking where everybody was) only had 1 and 3 views, I knew something was wrong. LOL, I just didn't expect my posts to be gone forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
