So for me, no 3 and 5 years Milestone (Hecto- and Kilometer awards?).

    It has been made clear quite a few times that it is very difficult, if not impossible to restore Brig's missing posts. I think a Curial decision on this is not very productive. However, I too would not like it if the greater part of my posts suddenly would have disappeared.
    Perhaps we could ask the Curator to contact GED about this matter. If only to finally have a definitive answer, even when it is likely to be a "No".

    If we are going to discuss the missing posts, it should probably be moved to a separate thread,

    Considering the circumstances, I'd be in favor.
    My lovely assistant has done the bulk of answering I see. It's been made pretty clear that the restoration of Brig's posts is not something likely to happen. I do agree with the above that he deserves it nonetheless when he meets the 10 year mark but, I neither have a doubt in my mind that Hex will agree with this and give it to him when the time comes As said in hex we trust.

    I'm going to archive this now
