LJ archiving entries?
May. 9th, 2009 11:30 pm
Okay, I might just be totally late to the party on this one, but I was pretty much off LJ for about 2 years ... do they archive/take down entries after a certain length of time?
I went looking for some older entries I had made on some Angel episodes that I was sure I'd written about, but I couldn't find them. Then I checked the archives for how far they went back to see if I could find them manually, and discovered that my very first post, whenever it was, is now gone. Was there some kind of hiccup at some point that deleted journal entries (particularly older ones), or do they just delete older entries as a matter of course?
I'm kind of sad because if I'd known I might have taken some precautions to archive some of that stuff locally. Now it is gone forever. :(
