It's my fault folks, I plugged in a busted flux capacitor while viewing the forum. Sorry :tiphat:

I've noticed a couple of my posts missing also. As Keith said, we're trying to see what happened.

On a related note, it looks like the Forum is going to have to move to a dedicated server or a VPS, either of which are going to cost almost 30 times what I'm paying now. For the first time in the 9+ year history of the Forum, it may be necessary to take supporting donations. I still will not accept any commercial advertising. I'll post something on this in a separate thread.

Unfortunately, I seem to have long periods where I can't get to the forum, but I wholeheartedly would make a contribution to support it. Charles, can you give me an idea as to where/how you might post information about making donations, so I can make a point of putting it on my 'keep an eye here' list?
