Steph, i received your PM, thanks. Like I said, i don't mind about the number of posts that stand under my nation (would be a 1000 now). But have you asked your collegues about a way to find the old posts so I can follow the discussions? I saw that the population counter on my nation did not stop (still 900 million or so).

Anybnody knows a way to find back the old posts. My nation got deleted by accident due to a technical problem (double posts ) and back restored but lost my posts. :( Sometimes i manage to find a discussion back when I go via the posts of another nation.

Thanks in advance

My understanding as a player:

When your nation was deleted, your forum account was deleted as well. This includes your creation date as stated on the forum as well as the index of all the posts you made. Resurrecting your nation does not undo the deletion of your forum account (there's data missing so it can't be done automatically). It creates a new account instead.

May, just maybe, Max could do it. Maybe not. It's a lot to ask though, and I would suggest that instead you spend some time to find those threads you are interested in and bookmark them for as long as you need easy access to them.

I've deleted and recreated usernames as admin on the Europe forum, and pre-deletion posts will no longer show up on an ego-search.
I don't think there is any way to search for them, as they are irreversibly reclassified as Guest posts.

Thanks Ballotonia and Myrth, i already thought that the sirtuation was hopeless. Pitty, I don't mind about the counter, I am not the type that posts "Congrate me for my 1000 posts" but I like to see my former pots. Like you both know, my nation had more then the poor 20 posts I have now (strange, my population still is high, 800 mil. or sompething, that did not change).

Ballotonia, do you mean Violet (Barry) by Max?

All the best.

I'm really sorry there was no way SMW.. :(

Just try to remember to only hit that submit button once to save this from happening again. I feel bad..

Congrats on what should be your 1000 post! :P
