formatting problems
Ursus:
Many of the posts that are longer than a wee bit are cut short. In some cases chopped to a fraction of their original length. This includes previous entries plus entries post-move (earlier today).
In at least one thread, some posts have been crammed to the righthand side.
Deborah:
Yep, 10 years of research gone from this post, one of my longer ones. 1994-2005

Is the information from the shortened messages permanently gone?
Will there be a character/word limit now? If so, what?
Ursus:
I've been quietly freaking out about this. After determining that most of my longer posts were chopped, I next checked your posts, Deborah, knowing all the fine research you have done here and its necessary page space. And then I really freaked.
I hope the old database is not completely gone. I'd be willing to put in some legwork and crunchtime repairing issues if "Kelly" (new tech?) is overloaded, but would need instructions...
Additionally, perhaps "Kelly" could have a PM box? Might make it easier for people to contact her/him with problems 'till the database change gets all settled...
Deborah:
That's the only one I checked. I'm afraid to look. Hours and hours of research. Hope it's not lost.
Anonymous:
Find out where in your SQL implementation the text length is defined, and maximize it. Yes, this is in your SQL implementation, not the forum software. This topic may be of help. You'll also need to restore the backup again, as everything was indeed lost.
Even weirder: When trying to click post reply as a guest, I get an indefinite wait.
