What brought this out was a recent thread about crossover pipes.....

See Post#10 by John Hinckley. I tired searching for the thread John quoted and couldn't find it. It appears missing. John must have had that saved offline.


Also noticed these are missing too........

Not sure if we have offline backups or not but just wanted to let you guys know what I found.

Rich
just dropping a note to acknowledge your post. I cannot help on it, but I am sure that Gary, Rob or John will, when one of them sees it.
thank you for the heads up.

Re: Missing Archive threads

Thanks Don,

Hopefully the threads exist somewhere for retrieval. If not, it's understandable that these things happen. It must have been a enormous task to convert this data over time.

Re: Missing Archive threads

Rich,

Sorry it took so long to get back but I have been busy. I remember a few years ago we found a missing group of posts from some time period similar to what you found. We searched looking for any other missing time frames and didn't stumble across this one.

At that time I still had a backup of all of the threads previous to our upgrade from Webbbs to vBulletin and I was able to import the missing time frame. I have since deleted all of the backups from my computer so they are not available to import. I may still have them on an older computer that I just haven't thrown away yet. Should have a couple years ago so I will look there to see if we may still have the threads to import. It may take a while but I will look for them.

If you happen to find any more be sure to let us know.

Thanks.

Re: Missing Archive threads

Hi John,

No apologies necessary. You and the crew have done amazing work on the website work which is extremely appreciated.

As I mentioned it was a FYI in case it was not noticed before. I stumbled across the missing pieces when searching. Good luck on your search and hopefully it doesn't take too much of your time.

Thanks,
Rich
