It may have to do with the new host migration. But again, stop making accusations towards the admins. As Don said we already showed you the logs, we didn't do shit -_-

Thanks for derailing my other thread. I would like to ask again why are posts being deleted? Was there a reason for things to be deleted? Not blaming you mods, but what really happened?

Since this argument is at a stalemate, a super admin or coolz should review this and say who's right.

We don't know and we didn't purposely derail your thread. Hence the reason for this thread.

I don't really see how this is such a big deal to you?

It's two posts. Get over it and don't waste other people's time. ._.

Let me just input my theoretical opinion on how this could happen:

1. Host company decides to begin migrating server data to another box.

2. At, say, 12:00, a copy is made of all the data on the servers.

3. At 12:05, Tiger guy and Alkaline post. The posts are submitted to the old server box that is still running, which remain there for about an hour.

4. At 12:30, the copy operation from the backup to the new server is complete. The new server is brought online, with a half-hour old forum database.

5. Everyone after Tiger Guy and Alkaline posts. Because the new server started with slightly old data, it appears as though Tiger Guy and Alkaline's posts were never there. Mysterious, isn't it?

6. The next day, Tiger Guy and Alkaline wake up to see that their helpful posts have been "deleted".

7. In their anger management ritual, they each take the de-barked trunk of a 15-year-old oak tree and lodge it in their rectum. The sudden expansion of their anus causes them intense pain and internal bleeding, which moves them to become increasingly aggressive as to inquiring where their posts have gone.

The problem is that the two posts were about actually helping Astropilot. Alkaline was nice enough to post his again, but I'm not going to post what I said again, since it took about 30 minutes to think though what was a good thing to say and revising my post.

By posting, I'm not wasting peoples time, they're wasting their own time by getting into this, even though it doesn't involve them. Alkaline never said "IT WAS JMAN THAT DELETED OUR POSTS!!!1111!", he said that there was someone that could. By Jman pointing out that he said it and defending himself for something that we didn't even say that he did.

The other reason that I have a problem with this is that today it could be a post disappearing, tomorrow it could be a VIP's that some admin doesn't like powers disappearing. I don't believe an admin would stoop to those levels, but it wouldn't surprise me if they did.

1. I was up at 12:30 your time, they were still there.

2. You have nothing to do with this, so shut the fuck up.

Guys if they deleted the post they would say so... Lets say they did delete it what you going to do about it? Nothing! So really they have no reason to lie about it...

Edit: Why is this in the general board? Shouldn't this be in like VIP or something do we really want to show the public our dirty laundry?

Maybe they're right, maybe posts are just going away for no reason. I had 401 posts, and now it is 400. I dunno, I think this might be a smaller issues then everyone is trying to make it out to be. I've had posts deleted/some how removed before, I wasn't happy about it at all, I got over it though.

Seriously Don, if I'm wrong, I'll make a thread with me making a apologizing like a little bitch.

Guys if they deleted the post they would say so... Lets say they did delete it what you going to do about it? Nothing! So really they have no reason to lie about it...
That's kinda what I'm trying to say. If someone deleted it, just come out with it.

I've had posts be deleted too, but never have then mys disappear without a trace like this. I would understand if me and Alkaline were saying "OMG ASTROPILOT UR SUCH A LOSER GET A LIFE", but we were actually trying to help him.

I suppose so, my post was positive too for the most part, I dunno, sounds pretty odd to me. :\
