Well, I've spent nearly 11 hours on this, TRYING to get the old posts to load into the 'forumXX.thread' file, but when I try to create it, it goes to 0 bytes. So I re-upload the forumXX.thread file AGAIN, and tried this 100 times coming at it at different angles and can't get the old posts added.

I have no idea why it's doing this, but it's either:
1. File permissions are incorrect
2. server is low on hard drive space (I've emailed them asking)
3. many of the forums are corrupt (But a recalibration would fix that.. hmmm)

4. I'm going nuts, and my fingers ache, aaaaaahhh!


PS: Have you ALSO noticed that you can't choose a message icon when you post a message? again, I have NO idea why that's happening.. sigh, nothing seems to ever go right for me... I gotta get some sleep now, I'll try again tomorrow..

Ziroc ! Your health is much much more important to us than the missing posts. And we would be ashamed forever should you miss any second of your W Day because of tiredness !

The Board is back, and it's a wonderful gift from you already. So GO GET SOME REST, and take care, that's what matters. I would nail you to your bed if I could. We love you !

The world is my oyster !

Ziroc,
Don't worry on our account about getting it done quickly, you've done so much already. You don't want to give your eyes so much monitor-strain that you can't see your lovely bride on the big day

We are just pleased we have somewhere to post, the rest is secondary

Dan!

You have done EVERYTHING right! You got us back up and running. That is a feat worth feasting over all by itself.

Please don't make yourself crazy over it. I know you will work it out sooner or later and frankly, you have lots of other things to worry about! Rest!
And I want to hear ALL about the wedding, you got that?

Dan, after all this time in the wilderness, a few niggles are worth it. Rest and prepare for the big day, for which I wish you the best of luck As for the board, as long as we can post we are happy. There will be plenty of time to fine tune it later.
