What a pity this forum looses pages! - Polyloop

Unless I'm mistaken, just this forum (Hexagon- ENG) is loosing threads and pages, unlike the others which have multiple pages. Pity really, valuable info' has gone missing.

Well to be more accurate we've lost 1,163 threads.

Down at the left bottom of the forum's thread pages (e.g. Hex Eng) there are three pull down menus. One is 'Sort Order', one is 'Sorted By', and the third is 'From The'. Lastly, there is a button 'Show Threads'.

The default for 'From The' is 'Last Month'. Use the pull down to change that to 'Beginning', then press the 'Show Threads' button. You should see something like 60 pages of Hex threads listed (at least for me, as I see about 20 threads per page, that may be possibly configurable), or nearly 1200 threads.

Yep, not only what Ronjurman said, but the serach engine on this site is pretty powerful too and comes in handy for finding answers quick.

Thomas was talking about a wiki last year, maybe after they get done with what they're working on he can add that too. I think something like that would be cool here, even if it was just a fancy FAQ's sort of thing and filled wth facts, notes, observations, tips and that sort of thing.

No pruning on this server.. everything is still here

For the wiki, I miss some time to do everything. If I have some volunteer, I'll be glad to show where it is (wiki.polyloop.net

Thanks rj, that solved it. Spent three hours reading starting from the last page last night.
