You can do it! Array can't kill your comments...

When it first happened to two of my posts, I was surprised at his name: Array! What an exotic name :) Then an array of thoughts came running… The comments page was left looking like ruined. Let me do some experiments! And when Monalisa got angry, I had to do something… :) (P.S.: One round of the iland and I see many people using innovative ways to abuse the 'guy' called Array Lol:)

Array actually hides the one ‘page’ of comments on the comments page. I don’t know the way to get rid of the array yet, but you can get all your comments back. This is how:

Suppose you have 22 comments on your comments page when Array posts comment and your first page of comments gets destroyed. Now your 10 comments on the first page would get hidden. On the first page, you would see only Array’s comment and on next pages, remaining 12 comments would be there. Now, log off and access your blog again. Start posting comments on your own blog post. Each new comment of yours will push the Array to one step below. And as Array comment goes down each time, one old comment of yours will start appearing on the next page! Wow! But, still there is a catch.

As soon as you will post 10^th comment, the Array will reach the next page and your next page of comments will get disappeared. If you want to copy your comments, you can copy all the comments once you post 9 new comments on the first page; when the Array is at the bottom of the page.

Now if you want to repost your old comments by your friends, you can log-in again, delete all the demo comments you had posted, log off again and post all those old comments in your friends’ names.

Anyway, all you wanted was to get your lovely comments back, right? So, by this way, you get all of them back!

(You can check this blog post of mine, I retrieved all my old comments and reposted them. You can see Array still sitting at one page :) Link: My Bad Guy)

Stop panicking and blaming rediff my dear friends. So far, no website has surpassed the cunning hackers and naïve bugs :) As the bombers can bomb any city in India, bugs can also hit and infect any blog site!

Don’t lose hope! We can do it!

Update: 7 Aug, 12:15 PM: Array has striked to this verry post! Wow! That is quite interesting. How did array know that I have posted something about it? :) Wait, I will retrieve all comments in the evening, when I get time...

Update: 7 Aug, 19:30 PM: My Goodness! Array strikes on this very post for the second time! Some of you had posted comments after his last attack, and there is an array comment again on this  very post! Let me see if I can retrieve your comments...

Update: 7 Aug, 20:03 PM: Array defeated again! All your comments are retrieved. (If Array comment appears again, it would indicate that some human element is involved.) Anyways, blogging was never so much fun :)
