AI Thread Summary
Visitor messages on the forum mysteriously disappeared, leading to confusion among users. Initially, some speculated it was a bug related to recent fixes by a user named Greg. However, the messages eventually reappeared, alleviating concerns about their permanent loss. A database table had crashed, which was the cause of the issue. Users expressed relief that their valuable messages were restored, with some humorously questioning their memory of past messages.

I think the title says it all. Everyone's are gone...just a bug, or are they really gone?

Yikes! :eek:
 
Rut roh.

I wonder if this happened around the same time that Greg fixed that other problem today?

But now where are they? I honestly now am doubting if I ever had any?! I have none now, but could swear I have had them in the past. :eek: Has my mind been shattered? Is THIS what OLD IS?

Feewwww...I thought I was going into senility already. I was thinking, "I'm not THAT old, am I?" Fortunately the answer is a resounding "no."

Well...I guess I'll go have another glass of Ensure and take a nap now.
