Thank you for the quick reply, Loa!
Is the archive inaccessible to regular members? When I try to access my brag (
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,387191.msg1654985.html#msg1654985) and my Q&As (
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,385660.msg1633971.html#msg1633971) from the Girly Swap 2017, I receive the following information: "The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you."
Words fail me to express how sad I am! I've always put a lot of work into my brags and Q&As, and I've had swap partners comment on how useful they were when they were preparing swap boxes for me. Digging through old posts has always been expressly encouraged during swaps. Most importantly, those posts are part of my history, not only my MLPArena history, but also my life history, because I remember where I was at that time in my life when I participated in a swap. Moreover, the information in my Q&As is the result of years and years of participating in Arena swaps. Whenever I sign up for a new swap, I update the information and retrieve it to reply to questions.
Is there any way for me to access some of my past brags and Q&As and save the information? Most important for me are the above mentioned brag and Q&As from the Girly Swap 2017. I was able to retrieve some information from the Brags and Off Topics forums for other swaps. (I really wished you had posted a notice in the site announcements and given everybody the opportunity to save their information.)
Thank you for reading, and for any help or reply you might be able to give!
