Apology To All

Apology to all Oct 22, 2006
Guys and gals

i am soooooooooo sorry.

I accidentally deleted the thread "write about the person above you".

It was an accident whilst i was clearing up the crap posted by "you know who".

I was clicking away as there were so many and i didnt notie someone had posted in between the zillions of crap posts.

Sorry to all of you that contributed to the thread.

As you are probably aware i have spent a fair time today removing crap from general. If this continues, i promise to check every click more carefully.

EJ

i am genuine in being sorry, i have spent over an hour today deleting around 200 posts, and that didnt include the crap he was posting in another thread earlier in the week.

as all the posts had the same title i got a bit complacent in checking the actual thread title, thats how it happened.

Arnie ,
is there anyway we can get the thread back???

This was the longest thread ever in DF.

I'm not into mod things, but is there a way any mod, super mod or andyba can do ???

I'm sad for EJ..

This might work, though I aint entirely sure. If AndyBa has recently performed a backup of the forum, then in all probability the missing thread could be revived, albiet a few missing posts. Well something better than nothing right.

Its usually a full DB backup/restore. further processing required to revive a single topic.

So I guess there is hope to revive the missing thread, unless ofcourse no one gives a hoot. Somehow I can sense a poll coming up. :lol:
