Default What happened to the missing posts?

Hello from the Eighth Doctor
Earlier today, I checked the group to see if anyone had responded to a posting that I
made regarding video capture cards, and Slackware. The only one there was the
response that I had read last night. A favorable one in fact.

However when I checked to see if anything else had arrived about an hour and a half
ago, US ET, it was gone. Also everything that was posted during the 14 days
surrounding Christmas and New Years. Also a large amount of garbage that was
present on the list, that was there, when I checked the list in the morning, was
deleted.

And here's a giggle, Google Groups, can't find my original posting, and the replies.
That's right replies. There should be two to that original posting. The reply from a
user who knew my card, and my reply to his, stating that I'd try the instructions
from the company, who had based them on customers' notes.

So since this group isn't moderated, something else went wrong. Anyone care to
offer a suggestion?

Not a suggestion, but since I run my own newsserver, a Message-ID:

MB3Bd.1194708$Gx4.1009857@bgtnsc04-news.ops.worldnet.att.net

I couldn't find this on google groups, either, so clearly something
funny is going on.

Hello from the Eighth Doctor
And who do you mean? Unfortunately the moral degeneracy of this grouping has
provided for a lot of them. I can think of two, but no names.

Seriously, what did happen?

Difficult to say. If the posts don't show up soon I can pull them out
of my spool and e-mail them to you if it's terribly important.

I thought it was just local to here.

There were a bunch of junk posts today, which I didn't pay much attention to.
So I can't say if they were the usual troll posts or they were a wave
of those "let's bother one of the email abuse newsgroups" cleverly disguised
as the usual troll posts.

When the messages disappeared here, I assumed someone had cleared out
the junk posts, though I can't recall it happening here before.

The fact that it's not local doesn't change that, though it's odd
that they sent out rogue cancel messages on every post rather than just
the junk posts.

Hello from the Eighth Doctor
Thanks. This means I'm not crazy, and my ISP isn't seriously **** upped in the
head as I originally thought. However Alan thanks for the offer, but I found the
relevant posts stored in the LinuxPackages forum. I have since posted my reply to
them below this message thread.

Must be something local, as here "down under" those messages are still
healthy.

Very nice use of alliteration, 8th Doc, both with [g] and [r].

Hello from the Eighth Docto
Well something is not right. It happened again. I am convinced tha
there is something seriously wrong with the servers who manage ou
group. My ISP has disavowed itself of all blame
