Missing Posts?

Post by Arcane_Scroll » Tue May 13, 2014 3:41 pm

We had a stupid major failure when this site, and the main FoE one, were migrated to a new server. They assured me it would be seemless, they did not tell me we would lose nearly a week of content in the process due to a poor decision on their part :twilightangry2: They had moved the database 5 days before the rest of the site... :flutterrage:

I have managed to recover the last backup, made around midnight last night, and restored it. Any posts made after that point are most likely lost... sorry :fluttercry:

Now, to start getting the main site working... with its 50+ times more content... :applejackunsure:

All praise RSS feeds. Looks like there are only three posts missing as far as I can tell from my cached RSS entries, all of them in the signup confirmations thread. There could be more missing, but it's unlikely (my feed refreshes every 15 minutes).
I'll post all of them below:

Could I possibly get a quick confirmation? I signed up for this a while ago and I forgot which e-mail I entered! It should be under the name "Iain Skaggs" (and if you could PM me to remind me what e-mail I entered, that would be super! It's one of my two Gmail accounts, I just can't recall which...)

Hi! You've signed up for one set with Twilight Sparkle as the best pony! I'll PM you your e-mail right now.

I think we missed some guy who posted in the Just a Quick Update thread asking about shipping or something. He had just created his account, so that's missing too
Also I think Mad Modd asked for a signup confirmation, but it seem like that was posted to the old forums thanks to the DNS records not fully propagating (or somewhere. SpikeBot reported it, but the post clearly isn't here). DDBProductions answered him though, so it's all good I guess. :pipshrug:
