This is the Conversation Forum for h2g2 Feedback << Old account removal closing a thread >> Subject: My messages have disappeared Posted Sep 29, 2011 by Baron Grim   Posting 1 Sometime last week someone noticed that the "Leave a Message" had been turned off on my personal space. Then we noticed that all my previous messages had also disappeared. Lil sent an email about it but I've yet to see my message reappear. F105207?thread=8212297 We are rapidly approaching the great migration and I'd like this to be fixed before that. Does anyone have an idea what has happened? It's apparently only affecting my personal space.

Can you please say if the convos are in your general convo list? eg can you remember the subject line of any of them and have a look? I'm afraid it's highly unlikely that anything can be done about this before we move as the techies are all very busy. But what the techs are saying is that the site is being copied, as is, when we move, so we shouldn't lose anything. If your messages are still there now they should be there next week and then one of the techs or italics can sort it out for you I know that's not totally comforting, but I'll mention it to the Gurus group too.

I just searched back over two years of my convos trying to find anything left in my message center. I couldn't remember any specific subject lines so it wasn't an easy search. I did finally find one though.

Much as I hate suggesting it, I'll do it anyway: Try barlesque. http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/user/U69725/messages/ Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: My messages have disappeared Posted Sep 29, 2011 by Ottox This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 9 Can't post in barlesque either though!

Now, in Alabaster, I can see them, but going into them, they all seem to say Thread closed, even though I can see by recent postings that this is blatantly wrong. did you annoy the good message fairy or something Ottox?

I am doubly confused.

I've let the eds know and also let Pastey know just in case. Anyway, what would this great migration be without some trials and tribs? Conversation list Conversation list
