thaialism Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 for some reason my post does not show up and the search function won't work, i've tried using my history bar to locate my post and when i click on it, it said that the link is broken or that the post is out dated.

Software Updater Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Do the following My Controls --> Posts Do you see what you have posted there? Your posts might have been moved or the server hasn't cached the post yet. Regarding the search function, it is a known error and I believe the developers are working intensely to get it working again.

00diabolic Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I notice when you do a fast reply sometimes my posts wont show. I had it happen to me twice today. Its there and then gone as soon as I refresh. EDIT: I also noticed that other peoples posts are disappearing. Its very strange like if you watch some topics if someone said something brief like thank you or this is a good topic. Sometimes those just disappear. My friends first post was one of those and it was in one of my topics and its gone now. I know he said it and I know I'm not going crazy. It was there for a week and now its gone. I even quoted him and my quoted message was also gone. Very strange. I think the mods delete these types of posts but i'm not sure why.

skyhighmac Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 It might be a database error.... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/102646-my-posts-are-not-showing-up/#findComment-733384 Share on other sites More sharing options...
00diabolic Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 This is definitely happening and at an increasing rate. I cant imagine this being all random. Seems like someone or something wants certain posts to disappear. I had posted to one of the awards topics above this one and now today nothing is there. Its like it was never there. Also a few others also posted there and there posts are also gone. I had quoted one of them thats how i remembered it.

Hagar Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 00Diabolic, there is no mystery here, the forum is continuously cleaned of junk posts, spam, etc. Non-descriptive topic titles and spelling errors get corrected, posts moved, etc, to keep some kind of order. where a complaint is made, it is common to clean up the thread and leave it in a state where it can continue on-topic. Where possible, special attention is paid to development threads, to avoid cluttering them with non-useful information. Commonly posts consisting of 2 or 3 words like "blah sucks" or "foo ftw" also get culled. The object is to make this not only a living community, but a useful informational resource, too.

That explains it. THANKS Hager. I figured something was happening to them. So I guess that is were old topics go to die LOL. There was an old topic I can find reference to on google cached about sonix webcams thats not on insanelymac anymore. Good info but no one had responded to it in over a year so thats why its gone.
