I just checked -- all of my network contacts are gone as well. Previous recipients is still there.

gone, gone, gone. I do get a list when I click on "previous recipients" but not my whole network.

Gee, this new Gather sure is an improvement over the old one. NOT!

This is like fixing a car. Your tire goes, you fix it; then, because they scratched something with a tool while replacing the tire, you see a spot where rust begins to form; rust begins to overtake the entire car, eminating from this original spot, it goes up, over the hood; you get the rusted panel replaced, but you can only find it in a different color than your car; the rust is gone, but you find that, in replacing the panel, they rattled something under the hood and now, coolent is leaking into your engine. You know what that means? New engine. I think that's the way gather's going.

To tell you the truth, I don't remember all my connections being in the old one? It didn't seem to be that big from what I can remember.
The previous recipients list looks like what I always had, but I never send out that much mail anyway, so I'm not sure. Was there always two buttons there before?

Hi Joshua, We are in the process of fixing the connections list in the compose message page. This list will be restored later today or tomorrow morning. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I cannot find my articles that i wrote except for one. I cannot find any articles written by Sigalet Shapira-blaauw except for a few. I don't want to go thru all the daily articles to find the one i want. I hope you fix this soon.

Marilyn, I see three articles by you on your Gather namespace page at marilynl.gather.com. Do you have more than these? We are working on an issue where articles published to private groups may not be appearing on your namespace page. If that is the case look in any private groups that you have joined or created. Your articles may be there. We expect to have this problem fixed soon.

Josh, I sent out a mass email recently to previous recipients becauase all of my network contacts were gone, as welll. Did you get my email tongiht? I assume you did since I sent out a mass email last week. The only people who did not receive one from me tonight were people with whom I've connected in the last week.

Okay, so I'm a bit confuzzled. I wrote a comment on this post earlier that said, "Hey Jim, thanks for stopping in." and now it's gone.

Did you leave the page before the comment posted? or did you need to refresh and didn't? or, did you not need to refresh, but the comment didn't post, anway? I have to babysit my comments. I frequently need to refresh, somehow, even for a single comment Ive made on a page. Let's try this one and see if I have to refresh. I think it has something to do with the server getting to this page or not.
