Thread Repaired via FTP
Cat,
Lunchbox may be new to the Org, but he is and old online player (for those of you who remember the Blood Ronin) that has only recently returned.
I don't want to add to the current controversy by expanding yet another thread, but there is a valid point here.
Most of the current set of issues started after X-mas. My guess is that a lot of the little skript-kiddies and other youngsters who were used to the Starcraft/Tiberian Sun/AOE series of games ventured forth into the great land of Nippon. The Gaijin came with no honor or life experience to teach them of its importance. All they knew was the creed of their times "Whatever it takes to win". The end result has been the corrupting of the community. I am confident that they will settle down and learn, or move on. In the meantime we should take this opportunity to teach those who would listen, and ignore those who won't.
With regard to a Foyer administrator. I doubt it Lunchbox! That would require EA to have a person monitoring all online Shogun activity 24/7 and quite frankly I don't think they are willing to invest the resources. I have given more specific reasons on another thread and won't go over them again here.
Welcome back to the community!

I warned you, but did you listen? Ohh, no...it's just a harmless little bunny, isn't it?
Not sure what happened here? I was posting a response to Lunchbox's thread and when I went to submit, it created a new topic that I had supposedly already responded to.
Admins, you may want to check in to this!

Any ideas anyone? A bug?

Oops indeed. It seems Lunchbox's thread vanished right off the face of the Earth. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif
This is the same thing that happened occasionally during the Locked Posts Crisis after the server move. There have also been reports of threads being intermittently locked again...

Freaky
If I reply to this thread i can see posts that don;t exist otherwise, including what was presumably your original Obake. Fair enough with the points raised, but i'd still prefer them to be dealt with in the pre existing cheating threads.

It's not a bug, it's a feature
Catiline,
Fine by me! Looks like you got your wish anyway.
The Obake in the Machine has struck again! lol

This is crazy. It makes the forums look so funny!
... Indeed
According to the "general discussion" table this thread has only 2 replies.
But I see that there are queite a bunch. Weird.
BTW: What was the original topic of this thread?
It's fixed now because the thread was repaired using FTP. -It was just a freak occurrence + nothing to be concerned about. -Go back to your lives citizens...
Actually, the thread has not been repaired. Lunchbox was the originator of the topic and there were two posts before mine. Lunchbox originally posted regarding the volume of cheating going on currently as well as asking if EA was going to moderate the online Foyer. Catiline subsequently posted welcoming Lunchbox (it was his first post) and then discussing the preponderance of threads regarding cheating and that we didn't need yet another.
It was at that point that my post (addressed to Cat) went up and all hell broke loose. Cat also indicates in his last post that he was still able to see the earlier posts, which are not yet available on the thread.
BTW, for what it's worth...everything went wacky when I hit the return key 2x to start a new paragraph (as per usual). The board responded as if I were double submitting, activated flood control and then deleted the original thread and put up the bogus one. Not sure if this will help any in tracking down what happened, and I'm sure that replication of the problem will be impossible.
Good luck figuring this one out guys!

I understand your pain guys, Obake uses the same excuse when we play together in multiplayer!! LOL Obake of the extremely large fingers, mashing away at the poor little keyboard until it submits to the beating and starts crying out for help by messing up Obake's posts. Also, did you know if you read Obake's posts backwards, you will get a satanic message? BWAHAHAHA Couldn't resist dear friend Obake; I just had to do it!! :P

I took a look around and the missing posts no longer appear even in the reply screen, nor could I find them anywhere else. Barring a semi-magical technobabble solution by Kurando-sama or dan-sama, it would appear they're gone for good. Sorry. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif
