it seems that overnight (central time, sometime between midnight and eight AM) a number of posts across the forum winked out of existence.

kind of a bummer.

can they be recovered, or is they permagone?

help?

Indeed, the forum changed IP addresses during the night. What you're describing is an unfortunate consequence of this move.

Heh. So now there's two ghost forums flitting around the net?

http://phi.asmallorange.com/~porfiry/ (which doesn't have a redirect yet and it seems a couple of people are hanging out over there... must have the ip address configured into their hosts file like I used to or they're using the asmallorange address.)

And also the original forum still exists (although the main page has a redirect to the above link. http://66.39.35.200/member.php?u=15278

Guess I'd better go edit my second ghost profile to reflect the fact...

Are we still on asmallorange? Just a different server? If so, which one?

hey awesome, my posts are there on the first one! a little crossposting and I'll be set right up! thanks invert, and thanks dave for the info.

wow that last one is older.

Yes, we're still at asmallorange, we've just moved servers.

Ah! So that explains it! I was sure I had posted a few things, but they disappeared. So did at least one PM I sent...

God damn there is nothing more annoying then a missing post.
