From what the staff's investigation has gathered thus far, I failed to disable auto-pruning when reopening this board. As a result, any threads that hadn't received a recent enough reply were automatically deleted a few hours prior to this post. Auto-pruning has since been disabled, so this shouldn't happen again. Sorry about this.

I'll always love you, Max.

We could probably retrieve the sign-ups and stuff using the Wayback machine, though.

But the wayback machine has not saved this page since...before it was re-opened.

Signature loading, please wait...

~~Unfortunately, we recently had to make changes to our backup system due to other server issues. As such we did not have a valid backup available and the topics are likely lost permanently.~~ Well, actually, that's what I get for posting too soon - it looks like things may be salvageable after all, though no guarantees just yet. This post will be updated as we work on it!

Nevertheless, I'm very sorry for the trouble, and we've taken steps to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Hi! I've largely stepped back from C-R due to life stuff. Please contact one of the other staff members for help!

*shrugs* Whether or not it's saved, that's okay. Thanks for keeping us updated.
