I was searching the archives for old posts by JWF, regarding menthol crystals.
They are no longer in the archives.
For that fact, there is no reference to JWF before mid-May.
I thought this was odd so I looked for some other things. Same story.
What happened to all of the old posts?

Hi everyone & so sorry all...
There was a problem with a couple of posts that needed to be deleted/or maybe it was the upgrade... But during one of these processses some of the old posts went missing.... NO ONE KNOWS WHY AT THIS STAGE......
I know Patti and Kerry are busy trying to get the missing posts back (but we are not sure whether or not this can be done).... Patti was the one who noticed them missing & has herself gone looking for them (also, Patti is not feeling real well at the moment), she needs some down time.... I have no idea, what to do & don't want to play with controls, incase I delete something... Anyone want to dare me....lol Ant, do you know anymore.... Maybe Proboards keep copies of the whole board for a while or something.......
One thing I do know, is they are devastated about the missing posts and have not given up on getting them back... (last I heard)....
Sorry for the inconvenience.... I know I already went looking for something, thats no longer there. Lets all cross our fingers we can get the old posts back, there is some good info & yes JWF is one of them....... Still doing cats claw (thanks JWF)
Night from OZ....

Yepers, I had the same problem! All of these new comers are asking me about Septra and I thought I could just post links to old posts that really helped me, and I can't find them anymore. Please tell Patti that I send her healing energy and hope she is better soon. Peace, Hope

Chances are when they added the new software for the board they saved only the resent post
I understand that proboards was doing a mass revamp of all their boards and were probably being lazy in respect to saving the archival post
I will bring it up on the proboards forum and see what they say --then I will let you know

I checked proboards, as well, since I have another proboards forum (unrelated to this disease).
Looks like nothing was lost in the upgrade, so they must have gotten deleted some how. There's a mass delete in the admin functions. There's no confirmation (do you really want to delete?). So if you tell it delete and the days are still set to 30 (default), you get no second chances.
Deleted posts are not recoverable.
What a shame. But guess we'll just move on.
Anyway, just trying to help or save you guys some time.
This probably should have gone in the Off Topic Forum, so apologies.

I'm not worried about my deleted posts. I just mentioned it in that one thread where I had a separate concern. If other people are, fine, but I have mentioned it in the past and I'm not worried about it anymore.
