  • Hi - i just got a notification that there was a reply on a thread I started about posting email comps, but when i got here the link was invalid. I just searched for it but it isn't coming up.

    Does this mean the thread has been removed? on other boards I have been on I have received notification if a thread I started has been removed and told why - so not quite sure what has happened. Can anyone enlighten me?

    Thanks

  • It's been moved to the discussion thread (this one where you just posted!) - the main board should just be for posting comps really. :)

    martin said on facebook last night that:
    Our server providermoved our servers physical location at our server company last night part of our improvement and defensive plans on the back of the DDOS attack. Unfortuantely some configuration errors meant problems on the site and the forum database server seems to have been damaged in the move. It's being fixed as we speak and my techies tell me we should be up and running sometime before tomorrow am

    Grrrr. Dont you hate technology!

    I posted a few comps and then read the message about them being deleted later on this morning to tweak the errors. I didn't notice the big red bold message from martin at top !

    have saved them on a word doc and might re-post later
