Alf has also complained of search functions not working properly!

Archive 1 is often empty, as the software moves older posts to older archives. As you will notice, Archive 10 is now very populated. If anyone is planning to reply to, or save, any posts in that archive, they are running out of time!

Jerry! As you remember already, posts constantly fall off the 10th archive and are lost forever. Also, the Voy software loses posts everywhere, at random, all the time.

Usually the Voy software loses hundreds of posts all at the same time. That's why your and Romaine's saving posts is valuable.
