Some point between 10pm last night (Monday 22nd Feb) and now, posts have gone missing. Eg entries onto February TOTM plus I added a video link in my tank log last night...it’s like the forum has done a Groundhog Day!

I noticed this too, I posted around 5pmish in my thread and saw it on the board.
A little later I checked the site and got an error and couldn't access the site at all.
Around 8:40 pm my time things were back but posts were from the morning with all posts from 11am to 8:40 pm missing.

I awoke during the night and, half-asleep/half-awake, imagined that my posts from yesterday had evaporated ; but it seemed real, somehow. Turns out it was!

Anyway, I can help to pin down the time of the disappearances to between 10pm and 3:30am.

At first I thought I had broke some sort of rule and had my posts deleted... glad it wasn’t!

Nope they gone. Its one issue with moving hosts with a large forum! The only way to do it and keep all the posts, is to put the forum offline, do a backup and then wait for the couple of hours it can take to switch properly.

Strangely, I am able to access all my posts from yesterday on my phone... just tried reposting it, which it has done, but only on my phone, not on the current site
