General discussion / Re: My account was deleted completely
Well MickM as of sep 06, 2011 you were a Sr. member with 368 post. It's not like you had just become a member. This could happen to anyone except the "Crew" they should have a higher user level and might be safe from deletion.

Re: Reflow Oven (Yet another)
by MickM ยป Tue Sep 06, 2011 1:51 am

Hi;
I was wondering about airflow in the oven.
I bought one used and it's pretty big.
My plan was to have a solid metal plate that fits fairly flush to the front and back.
Its ends would be bent so that it forms a a Z or S.

Then under the plate, put some fans, or an intake for fans.
That way the air will blow under the pcb, and back along the top of the oven.
Hopefully not moving any SMD bits around.

The temp should equalize pretty fast.
Is it worth monitoring the temp top/mid/bot ?

Should I worry about vibration?

So, anyway I am following this thread with interest.

Maybe DP does tape backups?

I don't think they use tape, it's more like chisel and stone tablets. :-)

then one could contact DP/Ian and open it again if it was an error? neslekkim
It's not a physical person it's software gone bad.

The best way to stop this is have every member repost one of 219 of MickM's deleted posts. That guarantees that it will never delete all of them again.

If you do a search on google with this "MickM site:www.dangerousprototypes.com" you come up with 219 different post dating back to 2010. I guess you can always go back and copy one by one from google's cache and repost them.

Here are some examples of this very same thing happening a while back.

I think the forum erased my account. Can you please send me the message that was previously sent to the deleted account.

thanks
Bleakware.

Thanks for the quick reply ian;
If you look in my sent folder you'll see a pm the reads "Re: PCB give-a-way! to N/A" yesterday there where two files with that subject line now only one, they where sent to Bleakware. At the time he/she had 13 post and still got deleted some how. There is a serious problem when you can get deleted with more than one post to your name. I don't know if you can up the users post count to match what they had before deletion, but if you can please do. I did not know Bleakware before his post to me. Please check with Bleakware to verify my story.

Hi Systemstech,

I haven't noticed anything. For the deleted account - our system purges accounts that don't post within 1 day because we get thousands of automated registrations per day. Could that have been it?

Can you please tell me what messages were deleted, or from what threads? I don't see anything in the system log about someone moderating posts. We only have a few moderators besides myself, and they only clear out very obvious porn or brand spam. I rarely remove things from the forum, and when I do I always leave an explanation.

Cheers,

ian

Hi ian;
I was just looking through my inbox, outbox and I noticed that a PM that I sent you is gone.
No reply or proof that I sent the PM. It was about an account that was deleted and now messages are being deleted without a trace. Is wordpress that bad that it does random deletes all by it's self.

Thanks

General discussion / Re: My account was deleted completely
This is not the first or the last time this will happen. when I started here the same thing happened to me luckily I only had two or three post. But can you imaging Mats loosing his posts and all his pictures. that would be a pain in the but to restore. there should be a way for you to back up your own account if the site doesn't maintain a backup. I'm sure that this site has lost many a good source of inspiration to this problem.

Thanks Mats;
Yup it did get here in one piece. I was surprised it made it. Good packing on your part. So what is it? I haven't had a chance to check out the link yet.

General discussion / Re: Big Box Of Parts U.S.A. Only
Looks like the box has gone missing. Does anyone have enough stuff to start a new box? I think that whomever had the box last will not be allowed on the list again unless they can show proof of shipment. Lets keep this going.

[quote author="heathkid"]touch, please PM me your address... I can't seem to contact you.  Thanks.[/quote]

Hi heathkid;
If touch does not respond by the end of the week keep the box moving send it to drjeseuss so that the split can take place. touch can always be added back to the list if and when he comes back.
