Yes, if you can give me as many details  as possible I can see if I have it on a backup.

Seems there is also a large (>400 posts) game thread missing from the French Defense section.

Are the lost threads recoverable?

Thanks Tony Smiley

I am no longer a corrupt member. Hopefully our IRS agrees Grin
  

If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.

The poll I organised about the dutch defence also disappeared  Cry
  

Yusupov once said that “The problem with the Dutch Defence is that later in many positions the best move would be ...f5-f7” but he is surely wrong.

Apparently someone was trying to break in by attempting to log in with a whole bunch of different usernames and guessed passwords yesterday morning, they didn't succeed but they seem to have messed up 5 member's details. Very odd. Why would anyone want to get into a Forum? Undecided

I have also noticed that "Silman's new book" thread is missing from the Endgames forum.

Hope that helps..

I am afraid the same will happen to the Amongst and Whilst Thread in the Chit Chat Section.  Angry
  

The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

The Goring Gambit thread (on e4 e5) seems to have disappeared completely!

You... really don't want to know what I thought when I saw the title of this thread.

Very odd, I am trying to sort out poor Willempie first, and then I will redo the message Index

Tony - there is additional (possibly related) problem - which you may or may not already know of.

Some recent posts have been converted to (unreadable) "attachments" to previous posts, see Dragonslayers post in e4e5 / "King's gambit - Estrin and Glazkov book" and James Vigus's post in d4d5 / "The Catalan".

I myself got all my "read" marks deleted, so that all topics appeared "unread" - but that's a minor problem compared with the others.

A couple of member's files (including Willempie) were corrupted sometime this morning, I am on the case! Smiley

"Ex member" killing threads??

Whenever there is a post by "Ex member," I am unable to open the thread.  Something about "error 303, not such file as .txt".

I'm using Firefox.
