I was wanting to read any new posts, but when I clicked to go there it was missing.  What's going on?

Very strange.  I couldn't find it in the trash bin either.   I sent a note to Rick, but even under the best circumstances, we'll probably lose replies that were already up.  bleh

Well, every once in a blue moon, we post a news story and the Talkback thread never gets created.  I haven't pinpointed exactly why this happens, but what I need to know in this case is if anyone had managed to post in that thread before it "disappeared", because that would be a NEW problem.

I'm pretty sure there was discussion in there before it disappeared....Cause there was a whole bunch of complaining going on about the simple vs. complex games debate...then again, I could be remembering another forum...

It looks like Rick put up a new thread, but if it's not in the trash, then it's gone for good I think.

The "Namco Announces Tales of Symphonia for the US" thread appears to have evaporated.

I know for sure that it did exist, because I made a post in that one myself (I had thought that it was supposed to be NOA that was bringing over Symphonia, not Namco).

Please continue to post the missing ones here.  The Master Sword thread is gone now too. What a huge freaking pain in the butt.

Yes, we're working on fixing this bug.  It only seems to happen when there are a lot of posts in the talkback thread...

Yeah, make a bous news thread and will spam the hell out of it and see if we can figure out how many it takes to kill it.

I still don't know what the hell is going on here.  There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why they are disappearing.  I can only assume that it's because they aren't being made through the forum directly and are coming from the website, but I don't know precisely why.  Especially considering the threads seem to be CREATED just fine, and are disappearing later.  I simply don't know what's going on, but I'm continuing to investigate.

Edit: OK, I've made a small change to the Forum software.  I'd appreciate it if you'd all keep an eye and let us know if any other TalkBack threads disappear.

Here's a new one.

The "Piracy Fight is an Uphill Battle" thread has become "Piracy Fight is an".

It might not be related to the dissapearing threads, but I guess it could, so I'm just giving you a heads-up.
