As some of you have already noticed we appear to be missing the last 3 weeks of posts.
I have no idea why this is but I will be contacting the hosting company to see why this has occurred.

Sigh. I was going to use the moving description as the basis for my BirdScramble trib.
And it's forgotten our reading history, too. One board, it says there are new posts in threads from weeks ago, as in I hadn't read them yet. I know that's not right.
So, lesson number 1539018737 in internet: never use a forum as your only copy.
Cheers!
I have been informed by our host that a hard disk failed completely and the backup was taken from the most recent that they keep (which is nice because many hosts do not backup anything).
They are going to try and recover the lost data for me but do not hold out much hope. So there we are 
I told you (n an earlier post) that it was Zoltar and his happy bunch.
or it was the

Curse you, Zoltar! I am back to being a newbie again! And here I was a Junior member! 
Then I hearby announce a gatch posting festival, try and recover from memory the posts we had before and more! 
Springie scratches heaad... tries to recall the 20 + posts that are missing....
LOL... 
Cricket disappears for a bit to make an offsite backup of her own site.
Cep, our host has a thing where they email you backups, .tar I think. Any chance of something similar for this one, automated? (Sighs, can't do it for my site since I can't do tars and don't have shell access.)
Wait a second......I thought it was funny that I should have 700 posts instead of 600 posts. OH NNNNOOOOO.

I was sure that I'd got to over 1000 as well.
Still, at least we only lost 3 weeks. Last time things went missing, we lost half the forums. So 3 weeks isn't so bad.
What can I say or sing. I think w should change the words to "Let's do teh Timewarp." to "Let's NOT do the Timewarp.", record it onto a loop and send it to Zoltar and his Happy Boys of Spectre.

I am relieved it was only three weeks though I cant remember all the posts to repost things
This guy looks like that little "Orko" thingy from the old "He- Man" cartoon...
Just a random observation...I have some posts to make up for...heehee
well as most people are going on a bit of a smilie frenzie mayhaps some of these new posts could finally become smilie stories?
Originally posted by SpringieI noticed that as well. At least the latest He-Man series was better than the 80s one and I can tell a story or 2 about that as well.
I kinda liked the 80's version. Although I have heard some things that I think came from the newer one and it sounded pretty interesting. I would be willing to read a fic about the He-Man characters.
Speaking of which does anyone know if the theme from the original movie of He- Man and She-Ra is out there in JPEG or anything??? Wouldn't mind hearing it again.

JPEG is pictures!
However, I couldn't resist looking. These pages have mp3 versions of the two theme tunes - I'd completely forgotten the She-Ra one.

Thanks I loved the web site. I did check it out and the one I'm looking for is the one from He-Man and She -Ra secret of the sword. The movie in which they introduced She-Ra. I do thank you for the information!!!

The movie in which they introduced She-Ra. I do thank you for the information!!!I don't theink they shows the film in Britain. I know they showed both shows and some of us lads enjoyed She-Ra more than He-Man (not for any particular reason of course) Please tell me Gatchgirl but did both live on different planets or just different universes? I don't know why but I recall that She-Ra was from a different universe. Also, I do remember ITV (I think) showed a Xmas special where there was a crossover.
Where I used to live as a kid, some of my neighbours of mine and myself were messing around with one of those 'lightsword' thingys (basically a torch with a long clear plastic tube to make it look like a sword) and we took turns doing impressions of Adam turning into He-Man.
My god, those were the days.
The secret of the sword was shown in the south of England approximately 12 years or so ago.
The only reason I remember is that my son was addicted to Heman and She-ra when he was little.
Never saw any He-man movies though I was a kiddie fan of the cartoon series.
heehee- I've started something, haven't I? My brothers watched He man every day... and played with the action figures constantly... I can still hear the noises they used to make for the guns shooting...my son and nephew found a bag full of old Heman toys at my moms house and they play with them just as much...mom also bought a dvd of the old he man cartoon...so I'm still hearing..."I have the power!"
I still have a lot of my he-man toys and i also have a vcr tape of the series. I liked the show so every once in awhile i still don't mind hearing.... BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Originally posted by Cep Never saw any He-man movies though I was a kiddie fan of the cartoon series.There was a awful live action movie in the late 80s where everybody traveled to America, caused chaos and mayhem in a town and then went back home and had a final fight, where the bad guys lost and good guys won and guess what, no Adam to turn into He-Man.
Not on that last movie that you mentioned Metaliant! Also on your previous question about different worlds/universes I think they were from different universes but I'm not positive... I do remember that Queen Malana was supposed to be from Earth.
The movie in the 80s I mentioned starred Dolph thingy who was in Rocky 4.
But that doesn't make sense about She-Ra and He-Man in different universes, especially if they were twin sister and brother and how come the Sorceress knew about that.
I think you were right about Adam's mum being from Earth. Wow, we get everywhere in Sci-Fi.
Quite true. Dolph last name was Lundgron or something along that line.
Hehe I like that heman movie, it was cheesy but watchable.
The different universe thing came from Skeletor and hordak working together to take over Eternia. At that time Adam (Heman) and Adora (She-ra) had just been born. Apparently they were aware they woul come into some special powers so a plot was hatch to steal them oth. However they only got Adora and took her to Etheria where Shadow weaver used mind control to get her working for the horde.
The sorceress wiped the memories of all but a few people in order that people and Adam were not too traumatised.
(I think thats about right)
How this topic got from a loss of posts to he-man and the plot to invade eternia, is the stuff of forum magic
Blame it on "Orko" here...
Orko was always my least fav. kinda like 7 zark 7. Now that character could have made a really cool orko!!!!!
Yeah but you always get some gimp character in those type of cartoons, like snarf from Thundercats for example.
So true...why do they do that? So we all have at least one character we hate? I saw Thundercats a couple of times...and I found the two twin kids to be a little annoying, too...but Thundercats reminded me of BOTP in a strange way...they must have used the "Gatch" secret formula...like they did with Voltron...
At least Orko and Snarf weren't as patronising as Zark and say that everything is alright and nobody got hurt, etc, etc. And if they dd, at last it wasn't every single second of the cartoons.
I love Thundercats very well.
