Looks like posts older than 12 months are purged/archived.  Is there a way I can access them?  I clicked on the "Old Archives" link but it only has REALLY old stuff.  Specifically, I'm interested in Q4 2006 posts.  Thanks.

We don't purge anything... For instance here's my oldest post on the forum http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=1589.msg8175#msg8175 back in 2002. We did have some database issues a while back that mangled some posts, but as a rule we don't purge anything by age. Whatcha looking for?

Working on my Project Announcement and I wanted to look back on some of my early posts.  I clicked "Profile" then "Show the last posts of this person" and it shows 26 pages.  I clicked on 26 and it shows my first post was on February 06, 2007.  I joined on November 07, 2006.  Was that really my first post?  Did I actually lurk for that long? ;D  If so, then I'm going to have trouble remembering some things. :timebomb:

I have no trouble getting back to my posts in 2004, if that helps.
