It looks like (almost) all of the posts since 1/28 have disappeared?

Was a backup restored at some point?

I requested 2 of my posts be removed. Not sure if you were referring to a more general issue.

As far as I can tell there have only been 5 posts, 6 now, since the 28th.   3 of those in this thread.

That probably explains it.  I knew that at least one thread had simply disappeared.  I assumed that something had crashed and that a backup had been restored.

We will not know for sure unless/until we get an official word.

As far as I know, Stans's removal requests explain any missing posts. The server is a VPS with a CDN (Cloudflare) providing content delivery so strange events are always possible.
