what happened to the civ2 scenario creation forum

[Broken_Erika]

all those threads aren't lost forever, are they

[Willhelm II]

I bloody hope not - it's one of the most extensive Civ2 archives on the net for scenrio creation.

Utter retards if they have...

[Leonidas]

What the hell??

Anyone know what happened?

[Leonidas]

Something definitely happened.

I used to be King, now I'm Prince.

Erika - you are back to Settler...

A human error has occured in this regard. Some data has been lost, but some data not. Backups are currently being used to assist in a restoration process that while it will not be able to put the forum back to the way exactly as it was before the accident, we are not looking at a "clean slate" situation. We are hopeful that this restoration can put us back to a point about 3 1/2 to 4 weeks ago. However, this restoration is a painstaking process so please be patient.

The forum has been re-created and moderator positions have been re-instated. For those concerned about post count/status issues, send a support request through Apolyton's ticket system with as much detail as possible. While your post count number may not be able to be restored (i.e. because you are not certain, verification issues), your title can most likely be.

On behalf of the Apolyton CS staff and administration, we apologize for the inconvenience. More information will be disclosed as the clean-up effort continues.

Ah here you all are!

Mr Q: any ETA on the SLeague being restored? Are we talking hours / days / weeks?

Can you give us details of exactly how this is done?

i see no avatars
mine is still in my control panel,
and i also need to know how to send as support request,
i know i was a prince, and i was getting ready to ask if i could have it changed to princess, i wonder if i can get 2 things done at once....
checking memeber data,
my current post count is 21
fairline's is 494
typhoon's is 17

Curtsibling is 1580
jim panse is 1191
this data must be from all over the place in the past, or the post count system is screwy
or mabe it lost the post count from the civ2 scenario forums, 'cause i only made like 15 posts elsewhere on this site
we'll eventually pull through,

Avatars are a matter of server load. When busy avatars are shut off for everyone to ease the load.

[jasev]

You still have your avatar, Broken_Erika. Don't worry about it.

[ColdWizard]

Yeah, but I'd recommend against changing it though. I might be out of date but last I knew settlers couldn't have custom avatars, so trying to change it might result in losing it (until you pester somebody about it... like when they fix your title).

Exactly how is "support request through Apolyton's ticket system" done?

To whom do we send our support request?

And what is the "ticket system"?

Thanks

[Leonidas]

I had King status with about 1300 posts.

Since the error I have pushed back to Prince with 980 posts.

It is important that we all stick with the community and don't give
up - We will see the glory of our forum restored, I am sure!
