Vanishing threads / posts

Scirno · 02-09-2003, 02:58 PM

Has anyone else noticed alot of threads / posts have vanished from here?

I have already made sure i am listing 'from the beginning' etc, but alot of the discussions about the mef exporter etc all seem to have disappeared???

What the hell is with that?

Are you sure?
Did you really check all pages?
Found a thread about the mef exporter here: LMA Forum News

=ARC= Scirno · 02-09-2003, 03:18 PM

There was at least 1 thread where we had posted detailed instructions on what we had discovered with the exporter, how to install it etc, I remember writing it hehe.

I checked through all the existing threads and cant see it anywhere, does the board remove posts over a certain age or hide them or something?

I can honestly say it isn't anything to do with us

I can investigate and see if Drift has had a clean up of the server but I cant see that deleting anyones posts

Well, I know on the =ARC= boards we have a pruning function that basically will automatically remove posts in certain forums if nobody has replied to them in 30 days. Maybe it was a default setting for the Map Editor forum when it was created, and it needs turned off ?

Pretty large thread though...

Hmm thought it was a longer description than that, but maybe im just getting old :P

We should probably go through threads at some point and extract snippets of info into a sticky thread or something, things get buried fairly quick hehe

If anyone wants to write any summaries about the editor, she/he should feel free to post it. I'll can sticky it then.
