This is an unpleasant announcement. We have lost a number of popular threads due to a moderating accident and I am not at all confident that they can be restored. This was not intentional on anyone's part but still should not have happened. The threads which have been inadvertently hard deleted are:
07 Poetry - Luke Saint
Abrahadabra - Luke Saint
Lyrics that move you - feranaja
Art and Magick, Images that inspire you - Naomichan
Harry Potter and the Ordr of the Phoenix - Naomichan
The scent of roses and jasmine - NC
Worship of the Dead - Dark Lion
Shakthi Worship in Tamilnadu India - m. Namasivayam
Ayahuasca trip - deviadah
Dark Intellect- m1thr0s
Po-Lice - deviadah
Here I go to Dreamtime 2007 - Silent John
eudaimonology aka "how to be happy" - Kuroyagi
The names at the end only indicate the last person who posted...not the authors. I have no other information at this time. I am simply letting people know that these threads were deleted and may not be recoverable.
We (supposedly) run daily backups here but I do not run these myself so I need to try to contact the person who does handle this. There is a slight chance we can still recover these but I am not feeling confident of this at present.
I am sorry to have to report this. I realize that a few of these threads were quite popular. I cannot overlook the fact that this sort of accident should not have occured under any circumstances and have taken steps to prevent it from happening again.
I will need a couple of days to determine if we do indeed run daily backups as has been reported to me in the past. If these are not being done as stated then I will need to arrange some other way to insure that they are in fact being done every day.
Sorry folks...nobody meant this to occur but it shouldn't have happened and there's really no getting around that. All we can do from here is try to prevent it from happening again.
I'll keep you posted on the results of my tech-support inquiries but I am almost certain these threads are simply gone.
