I was adding lyrics yesterday for Dawn of Decay's New Hell.
As it is written very small in the booklet, I didn't had the heart of doing all of it right now. It appears that what I had done yesterday (some 800 words for 5 songs) has disappeared, most likely deleted by some confident "metal lord". Now, I couldn't care less about losing points.
What I don't like is seeing an hour of work deleted.
If I could rest assured that I can add those lyrics in peace, it would be great.

And by the way, if the lyrics are slightly gothic or cheesy, it is not my fault, and unless you want me to scan the booklet, I suggest you trust me. I am no point-whore.

Greetings.

The site was having DNS issues yesterday so you more then likely added those lyrics to the backup database that was appearing for some people. It's more then likely that no one deleted your lyrics, they just weren't added to the right version of the site.

Well, it appears that a "metal lord", (check dawn of decay's page) has last edited the page, lyrics aren't there anymore, and I lost points.

But the last modified date is from January 24th, 2008; not February 13th, so it proves nobody deleted the lyrics.

I think you just saw an old version (from the 22th January) of your profile. The points you saw are the ones you had at the time. The same thing happened to me. Now, things seem to be back for me.

It is highly possible.

Which, again, make this thread obsolete. Sorry for all the noise.
