Disappearing posts?
 

A few replies in a couple of posts from yesterday seem to have disappeared/been deleted?

Me and stampy both have one missing from 'BMS-650mg vs. jr650' in General discussion and i had one from 'another beast from HPI' in General Nitro go missing.

Just wondered if anyone else has noticed this happening?Spooky.:eek:

Was it right gone, after you typed it? i didn't delete anything in these posts..

I too had some posts, i am sure of i replied, who are missing.. I thought it was connection error from my side..

They posted all right at the time,stampy responded aswell so i know that one posted.Just noticed today they'd gone.

Just a bit mysterious that's all,there was nothing in them to warrant deleting so must have been something technical.I'm not great with computers so i have no idea what might cause it.

I was online and searching through. It came up that the servo was off line. I didn't no what to think. I thought mike had gave up the biz. I sure am glad he didn't. I would miss him and this place.

The site was upgraded just over a day ago, including the forum. It's possible, indeed probable, that some posts may have been 'lost' due to a non-complete transfer of data from one server to another.

Definitely feel free to re-post anything you feel is relevant and/or request re-posts from others on things you wanted to see.

that would explain somethings. Thanks batfish. I just can't remember if i posted anything. :)

Yeah thanks Batfish.

I've noticed sometimes recently when it says server cannot be found/server offline(whatever it says when forum can't be accesed) it says 40 online or something similar.I always log out for a while when that happens incase it stops customers using the shop.There are never 40 in the forum when it says that so i assume it's including people in the shop.

Is this upgrade anything to do with that?Increasing capacity?

As you can tell i know nadda about computers

:L:

Yep - a big part of the upgrade was to increase capacity.
:)

Hopefully we won't get those problems anymore about not being able to connect. :)

I'm no computer guru, but I suspect the site upgrade may have had something to do with it. I upgraded to hopefully avoid the errors(too much traffic for my old hosting plan, and the errors were getting annoying and frustrating for me and I am sure for everyone else). If the errors come back, I will upgrade again. Thanks for being considerate of the store, Gustav. Very much appreciated! I thought the same thing when I got the errors(nobody can shop!:(), which made the upgrade decision a no-brainer, though it costs 5 times as much as the old plan!

I was seeing database connection errors. Hopefully they're in the past too.

"connection" errors is the key word. Hopefully, they are gone. The forum is definately loading faster lately.

Yepp, the forum has become faster. Good thing!

The business grows, eh? I hope you'll have to upgrade again, soon ;)
