The disappearance is noted...

I'm curious why a few recent blogs have disappeared. I noted numbers on my blogs for reference. Two days ago, I had 1,671 blogs and this morning, it's 1,666.
The list of total system blogs showed 71,200 and now it's down to 67,956.
Trimming the fat?

The first thought that comes to mind is storage and bandwidth. At some point, blogs and forum posts will become enormous and the cost of keeping data for years and years becomes expensive. CS is a free site and the need to eliminate some data would become a possibility.

Just a thought... It was mentioned (in a blog) that blogs that didn't comply with the wishes of administration would be deleted. I tried looking for that blog... but it disappeared too!

You take CStonehenge too seriously.
My house in Miami never flooded. I'm not sure of the height above sea level. It could rain solid for 2 days and wouldn't get to the first walkway step. 5 blocks north of me dropped down enough to flood. Some of the houses were built up a few feet... some weren't.
My uncle lived in Miami Springs and they had seasonal floods where the water came to the door and you look across the 'river' to your neighbors. Drainage was poor and it was usually a few days for the levels to drop.

I'm on the 2nd floor now, but the parking lot flooded 4 years ago because the surge pumps didn't come on. The low spots had water half-way up the doors. My car drowned from that incident.
Quite a few more disappearances too, just the last hour
You don't have anything else to do, only counting your blog? HAhahaha....who cares?
They took down mine ukr blog too, but no surprice there.

I care and I look forward to your first(?) blog. Are you barbed wire? heart1 confused cheers
Look deeper if you can. Some people count sheep barb, I do statistics.

Who cares?
Ask any member who had a blog with 40 or 50 comments that mysteriously disappeared in the night.
Let it go, Cleanshirt, let it go
I suppose they are but only blogs.

Having said that, I have one kept in memory of String and the ways he used to be sad flower
if that got pulled....
I'd be gutted sad

So I suppose not all blogs, are not but just blogs.
looks like another one bought the Farm over night,seems it wasn't action-able.laugh
Exactly... Blogs are a place to mark events that are important to you.

Mentioned a few times, we don't own the the things we do and say here.
They become the property of CS as soon as you post them online.
It's a business and the website is owned by others with no guarantee that what we say will remain.

So, it's a good idea not to forget the blogs and forum threads are volatile to the point of keeping an online diary where some pages will get torn out out from time-to-time.
If it's super important, keep a copy on your computer or other site in the event of a disappearance.
They deleted my gun blog. Looks like they are dead set on making this site a bore. sleep
I think also there is a bug in the housekeeping compact files routine, but not knowing what software is used I can't really say. I have been told of and know of multiple blogs of my own that vanished in the past 8 years or so. Likewise as recently as yesterday one of my responses to someone said, account deleted, but 3 minutes later when I posted to that, there was my photo again. So I think it is a software bug.
U was going to post a link to one of someone else's blogs in which my response to someone had no picture of me, and just said account deleted and showed the response of the (supposedly) deleted person (me) followed by the next response when I asked why does that happen and the system properly named me and showed my picture, but I can't.
Because the whole blog in question has vanished. LoL So yes, vanishing blogs are a real thing.
