Accidentally Deleted all my Pms in January TAKE 2

by J-Master1 Tue 24 Dec - 5:55

All my pms have accidentally been deleted because I misread the option. Is there any way to retrieve them on vgchat? My username was MichaelXD and I had friendly pms between moderators.

hello

vgchat has nothing to do with forumotion
you should ask for support there

if you are talking about forumotion's chat or private messages no there is no way I am afraid

vgchat is forumotion. It's on forumotion.

Hello,

No, there is no way to retrieve the PM's if deleted. Sorry.
ps. You can try a full backup to the forum (if you are the founder) but I don't think it will retrieve everything.

Regards,
TC.

I am not. Terry is. He even showed up but didn't do a thing.

vgchat is not Forumotion

You may find one on Forumotion but that doesn't mean it comes from FM. You can add nearly anything on a forum, weather, tv grid, countdown, ads, games but none of them is provided by Forumotion.

VG Chat

But I talked about it here last time. Why not this time?

~~can you show me the place where you spoke to us about it before so we can get up to date on what you spoke about as we are not mind readers and may not have seen your last topic.~~

EDIT:

Just to clear this UP for everyone The name for the forum is called VGCHAT it's not a chat box it's self its the name of the forum.

Sadly the only post / comments threads that can be restored are the ones made in the main forum Private PM's once deleted can not be backed up sorry.

But they said if one person got their pms back, everyone gets their pms back. Isn't that right?

Yes that's right. But there's a if. And as zero person can get his pm back, no one can get them back

As APE said, only public threads (i mean topics on forum, no matter who can see them). Private messages are not backed up, so they can't be restored.

PMS are not backed up since they are private, no one other then the sender and recipient can read them. Hence our system can not back them up since it can access them.

Sorry, but unfortunately they are gone forever.

Hope your having a Merry Christmas santa

Pms were backed up and restored on my forum, the latiaswebs. So why not vgchat?

by **SLGray** Thu 26 Dec - 22:42

Are you talking about a full restore?

EDIT:

It is upto the founder if they want to do a Full backup of the forum.

We can not do this for them it's the owners forum you will need to talk to them and then get them to post here asking how it's done.

TI have never seen a full backup fix the PM's but if you say it can be done as you have done it then maybe it can but we have NO right to deal with this problem as you are not the owner of that forum.

sorry.
