I got confused! what the hell is the matter with the forum?

I have replied some threads like when did you say I love you to your parents? and Do you believe in love at the first sight?. and I replied them successfully. but today I checked these threads out, my replies disappeared! so did other replies from some other members.

and those deleted msgs were not unfavorable ones, instead, they were some regular posts. I don't think Lorikeet would have deleted such masseges since they were normal and friendly. the only explanation for the phenomenon is: there must be some technical errors on the forum!

Who can solve the problem?

I don't know what happened, but it wasn't me! I don't think I can solve the problem, but I have one suggestion. After it says your post is successful, come back to the Forum and see if it really posted. If it didn't, maybe you will have a little more information about what happened. Sometimes I try to use the forum, and it says there is an error. I don't know much about the database, though. Anyone else notice the problem?

Lorik, I know it's not you. and I did see if my posted msgs were there, they were!! that's why I think it's a technical problem.

And Hardi, you are sooo funny!! Laughing Bill Gates isn't responsible for the problem! Laughing

I sent Dave an email yesterday to ask him about the problem.

and I received his reply just now! Dave is a nice guy! here is his email:

Red Rose,


Yesterday I had some technical problems with my web server .... the entire hard drive was completely full, so many messages did not make it onto the forums. I managed to fix everything last night, so you shouldn't have any more problems.


All the best,

Dave Sperling
