Half Life Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Is there any way of searching on posts from before 2007, i.e. in an archive, or were they deleted? I have the links to the old posts, but the search says 'no thread specified', I guess because the numbers are wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 unfortunately most are probably deleted, in order to get best performance from our hardware we have to keep the database at a size the system can handle, to do this i delete threads that have had no activity for other 2 years at times of problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a searchable archive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 What interviews were you looking for? I may be able to find them for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sing_For_Absolution Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 What interviews were you looking for? I may be able to find them for you. There was a feature on this site where the band answered fan questions. This was several months ago, but there were some really good quotes in it.

Half Life Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 Ah, it's not quite that straightforward. I have this thread that linked to lots of interviews, many of which people had posted on this site. However, lots of the links now don't work. Some of these are because the thread numbers changed in the big revamp at the end of 2006, but it looks like many of the threads were simply deleted. I'm just going through each link, trying to reconnect them to something valid. This may be on Muselive, another website, or may mean getting hold of someone with copies of the magazines (some of which I have anyway) and scanning in the article. However, some are simply lost in the mists of time. :'( I do this as a service to my fellow Musers as I'm an OCD whack-job frustrated with waiting for the next gig. Any offers of help, though, will be gratefully received. *hopeful smile* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
