What happened to my post?

Post by Buddhanutz »

Hello

At the beginning of the month I posted an extensive list of miniatures for trade on the 40K forums. I have since made a trade for some of the models and when I went back to find my post via the View you posts option it was not listed. I then went into the 40k trading forums and also could not find it. A post that I made a week later is still there but sadly the long list was not. My post was tittled H:Large Catachan army W: Money. I was hoping there is someway I could find this post as I did not save it and the list of miniatures and prices was a long one. Any search that I do also does not list my post.


Thank

The boards are self cleaning, old adds go away after a certain period of time.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

Have you read the site rules? viewtopic.php?f=44&t=45470 If not do so.

If anybody replied and quoted your original post in their PM, you might be able to pull your list from there- might be worth flipping through your old PMs before you sit down and write the whole list out again.

If you don't have your Location listed, take a second and update it!

-I respond within 48 hours unless utterly incapable. Please do the same. Any offer I make stands for that long as well.
-Lower rating? You ship/pay first. Same goes for me.

'How Much for...?' messages will no longer be replied to at all. I've been nice about it, now I'm done.

Thanks for the replies. I don't think it is the self cleaning thing. The post was from the beggining of April.

The posts drop off by volume.
I don't know what the exact number is, but say the 40k Forum holds 500 ads.
When you first post you ad it's at the top.
As other people post their ads yours is moved down.
Once 499 people post ads after you, your is at the very bottom, once the 500th person posts their ad, yours drops off the bottom. that is what we mean by self cleaning.

You are allowed to repost your ad every 7 days. I try to keep a copy of my ads saved in word, so I can copy and paaste as needed.

Good luck, I hope you find a copy in your mail box.

Lower rating? You ship first.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.
