There are some hackers here, but it's not_me..

FWG,

You could not see my private forum last week as I shut it down some months ago. It was not called Rlortie group, it was called 'Gravity Solutions' and could only be seen by registered members of that forum.

Yes I am aware of the rules against sock puppets, I have no use for them but I could not bring my current problem to bear without re-registering, I could not post anything.

And yes it may be caused by the same source that bumped me from OU.COM, I have never been able to get back in no matter what route I take. I really do not believe I am missing much so its no big deal.

Ralph, the forum database has been corrupted. Your old user ID number was 244. Hopefully Scott has backup files to repair the database.

http://www.besslerwheel.com/forum/profi ... file&u=243 (spinner) OK
http://www.besslerwheel.com/forum/profi ... file&u=244 (rlortie) Produces an error message.

Ralph, it looks like you no longer exist.
Maybe "they" are out to get you?

Our posts crossed paths, thanks for the update Jim

Scott has not logged on during the lat 24 hours so he might not be aware of the corrupted forum files.

God Bless you, achooie

Maybe you found the cause, maybe the achooie fan club is not happy with some of its members. Allen give Doc back his thingy before you disappear. LOL :)

Ralph, Sarcasm my friend, sarcasm.



OR maybe Scott is doing his taxes and realised how little we contribute to his site and has decided to give us all a little zing. Go get em Scott.
Did this not hapen at the same time last year?

Checks in the mail. ;(

Dave,

I think they are on to you also.

I just clicked on " various MT thoughts " and all I get is " No posts exist for this topic ".

Don't worry, you just have to go back to page 32, my "guess" would be that the people that were erased had their posts removed and this shortened some topics. since the number went down then the last two pages have not been written yet. Holy mackeral how often can you rewrite history.

I'm sure problems like this are popular with sites without HUGE budgets and support systems. I always wondered why Coylo had only 22 posts although it would seem like he had many more. Maybe coylo is a replacement name for those that have been abducted, Sorry coylo, i mean Rlortie.

More than just a few posts are missing, so is all my authored threads and everything that members posted within them are gone! Over a five year period we are missing much more that just a few posts. We are missing full pages of valued input from many members present and past.

Scott, fix the forum please, I'm seeing errors too: Later posts missing... etc

[LustInBlack]

I don't know why, but I was under the impression that somehow Ralph account was targetted.. He is the only one with missing posts!?

Who did you anger lately Ralph !?

[LustInBlack]

I have a theory :

Your credentials here were so high, that you overshoot the Highly Regarded status and your reputation status wrapped around to will be banned, bringing with it any coherency left in the universe, thus you are the fuse that will bring down chaos on this earth and provoke the mayan prophecy by doing so!!

>;P

Ralph, welcome back.
Actually your authored threads are still there. They're just minus your posts. If you want to see what I mean, go to the index and click on my name in the "Who is Online" box, then "Find all Posts by Mark", scroll down to and select one of the Tech Support posts (your thread).
It looks like someone just deleted your account. Hopefully Scott can restore it from a recent back-up.

Ralph what happened when you tried to talk with the admin on OU? I assume you did that?

[Ralph_Lortie]

I don't know why, but I was under the impression that somehow Ralph account was targeted.. He is the only one with missing posts!? Who did you anger lately Ralph !?

I am not the only one including you that has lost posts, every member who ever responded in a thread started by rlortie is gone.

∞ Ah yes the end and beginning of infinity. Any thing else that I can take the blame for, throw it on! :-)

[Ralph_Lortie]

Mark,

Thanks for the update, on my end all my authored threads are are missing even if they are there for you and other users to see.

Michael,

Ralph what happened when you tried to talk with the admin on OU? I assume you did that?

I cannot access the forum to communicate with admin. I do not have any private e-mail addresses to contact anyone. If I attempt to sign in I get a response from 'Check your Cookie settings to e-mail address already in use by other member. If I try to re-register it tells me that it has timed out before I can complete an entry.

With that said, lets give it a rest until Scott can respond. I am for getting back to wheels!

Ralph, that's weird. You might try this link...
http://www.besslerwheel.com/forum/viewt ... 1326#71326
I can log out and access this by pasting it into my browser, so I don't think it's 'member' sensitive.

[Ralph_Lortie]

Thanks Mark!

Yes that link works for me, all I see is five posts by you, Fletcher and Erick. It's like reading a book with every other page missing!
