NationStates Jolt Archive

I think I somehow managed to delete an entire topic... again.

Something about ITSMAD mandatory organ donations proposals in the UN forum.

The forum often eats topics... I doubt it was you. Not much you can do except hope it comes back up.

well its happened before, and always under the same circumstances.

I make a post, and get a double/triple posting. I then tell the system to delete the extra post. It takes a while, tells me I cant delete posts that arent mine, then the whole topic is suddenly gone.

Sounds like our pesky server to me. :P

The topic is still there. Generally if you hit your back button once the server's working smoothly again, and make a post, the thread will reappear.

Go to your history folder via internet explorer. Open the folder nation states and look for your thread. When you open it, it's back again.

That wouldve been nice to know.

Now I know for the future.
I have my TIF set to delete when the screen is closed.
And my history only goes back 3 days.
And I purged it before I read this.
