Hi.  I logged in today for the first time in a long time, and all my comics are GONE.  Anyone know why?  I would really like to have them back.

Thanks,

I've never heard of this happening before.

Is there any chance that you had more than one account, and your comics are stored under another account?

I would ask if you could have deleted them yourself, but I think only donors can delete comics, and you don't appear to have a donor account.

Might be worth messaging Brad (the site's admin) directly.

I was a donor, long ago, but it seems that status expired. I really don't think I would have deleted all that work.

I suppose it's no big deal.  I mean, it's the past.

But it would have been nice to have had some warning.

I've started a new account at another comic site now.

Donor statuses don't expire here, not that I've seen.

Donor statuses don't expire here and if your comics really did disappear feel free to email me.

lmharman appears to be a donor, case of changed acc name or moved comics or some mix up perhaps?

I just searched my email for 'efairy' going back about ten years (though there could be some missing stuff) and found the donation notice but nothing about renaming an account or anything. 

I have monthly database archives going back pretty far so if they really did disappear I'm sure I can find them.

If you look bipeds comment (if quoted the comic links are to efairy) it seems to suggest those comics were indeed part of efairys acc, plus the fact that lmharmans account didnt start until december 2005 and it has comics much earlier than that Id say it could be some sort of database boondoggle.  The sigs are very similar though in both accounts however.

Yes, that was me!  I don't go by "harmon" anymore since my divorce.

 

I would love to have my comics restored.

 

Thanks!

Looks like a complication due to renaming your account. Glad I didn't do much of that.

Are you sure your comics aren't back in lmharmon's account?

I found one edited comic backup by efairy but it was for this comic, which is now in lmharmon's account:

/comics/lmharmon/321426/

You've lost me.  Are you saying I have two usernames?  Because I thought I only had this one.

Okay, since I am logged into my old account, how do I change the name on it so it doesn't offend the hell out of my current husband?  :D

Uhh. Okay so you've found all your old comics, right?
