I did....I sorted via title and nothing at all. All the work in CS and chat in OOC gone. and overview too. Lawd knows where that info is.

Like Welian said, we've got stuff running in the background to rebuild the site. Hopefully, in a couple days when everything is fixed, your threads will be fixed.
 
Although my anger levels are over 9000 right now, I can see that the RPNation staff just wanted to keep this place alive, things would have gone a lot smoother if they tested things before the update happened, but nothing we can do about that now besides wait for the planet to spin
 
Hopefully....


Like TheRiverSings stated before, the site really should have been down until all of this was fixed. Until it was ready and not this broken up mess. Users would have understood more than what's happening now.
 
A week is a long time to ask people to wait for a broken and incomplete site to regain full functionality.

The site was recreated and tested over 12 times. Even then its not perfect because the live site is the one with the thousands of users slamming it.

Hopefully....

That wasn't an option. RpN is not an online shop thjat can go down for three days. Its a dynamic forum environment where content is always changing. RPs could not be moved while the site was offline.

No its not. The automated process is going as fast as it can.


Here is one of the many that are currently running:

The site doesn't need to be offline for that to finish, everyone can handle ugly posts for a few days, its not the end of the world.

It's not just ugly posts. I can't find over half of my threads and a lot of them are outright deleted...
 
Actually, it totally was. Stated in the notifs sent out to the whole site, and on fb. Two to three days or longer to make sure everything was functioning properly. And yet why does it seem so incredibly rushed and broken?? People would have understood the downtime to make sure things worked correctly.

The search index is still compiling, and all old group roleplays are simply in a different spot. If you filter your site activity by topics that you posted, you will be able to find your threads. No user-generated content was destroyed during the migration.

As I've told you a bunch of times, your content is not deleted at all. its all in Old System RPs. The Rebuilding Posts above also effects the search engine. 


Here are all your threads: https://www.rpnation.com/profile/24115-mitchs98/?do=content&type=forums_topic&change_section=1


If it still does not appear its the search engine is not done. Though all threads should appear via everyone's activity links in their profiles.

Because this is not a complication. Only complications keep the site offline.

So, quick question, are the BBCodes going to come back, or..?


Not asking this to be a pester or anything. ._. It's just, using the codes provided a bit of order to my posts. Especially when I post for more than one character.

Not to be rude at all, but, I wasn't referring to groups. I'm referring to 1x1's for the time being. And yes, some of my things for group as deleted as well.


I think I can read if it says 'Sorry that can't be found!' And gives an error when I click a link.

It was mentioned already that the search engine is not done if they aren't found.
 
But the site is so incomplete too and many features broken. May not have been any complications but should have still waited until it was all finished before letting everyone back on. Being promised so much and then seeing....this, as the end result doesn't sit well with many.

See I did not know it was not an option. If I would have known that initially I would not have made that post but, at the time I thought it was a possibility of being an option. And I was in no way comparing my shop's site to this one. It was just the only site I know that had a major re vamp

I wouldn't mind ugly posts, I wouldn't mind at all. I just can't see the ugly posts at all  ;~;

We have a system in place for translating the old bbcode system into the new formatting language. As background processes continue to compile, every post on the site will have its coding automatically repaired as best as possible.

The community is a dynamic, living breathing being. The forum is its body. The less time we keep the body on a ventilator, the healthier the community remains.
