Hi!

The resolution "Position of aid workers in warzones" Appears to have dissapeared.

Posts were vanishing off it and I have recieved no message about it being deleted.

Can you please explain?

It appears to be back again: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=556341.

There weren't any posts about it caught up in the moderation queue and, as far as I can see, the thread itself hasn't been modedited.

However, I see Mikitivity noting (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13685789&postcount=6) that he thought he'd posted in it earlier.

I can't tell whether there's a bug or whether it was just a temporary Jolt blip.

I'd suggest you keep a record from now on of what's posted there -- a screenshot, maybe -- and if anything disappears without an "edited", "moved" or "deleted" note, report it in the Technical forum.

If it's only been happening since the upgrade, put it in the Bugs and Comments (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=552128) thread.

(I assume, since your WA thread is labelled "Draft", that this isn't a proposal you've submitted yet. If you have, the reason it's not in the proposals queue may simply be that it failed to reach quorum in the required time.)

Apologies to my fellow mod, but that's not a factor. The game update didn't touch the forum structure in any way. There are some forum access issues we've been working on, but anything related to threads and posts would be exclusively on the Jolt side.

If you can see and post in the forums, any other forum issues are in no way related to the game upgrade.

Gotcha, Fris, ta.

(Y'know, one of the things I love about Fris, he knows techie stuff and he never says "Turn-it-off-and-turn-it-back-on" in that bored monotone IT guys usually do. And not even "RTFM", either. May his soul never get stuck on the roof.)

And to add another layer of confusion, there is a possibility that I wrote a post, but that my connection to the internet timed out before I sent the reply. I remember my post, but I don't in this case remember rereading the thread afterwards (which I tend to do).

It could simply be old age setting in on my part. ;)
