  • Hello! I just checked out your site, and noticed that your blog didn't meet the criteria we had for generating a blog archive: http://aivanda.xanga.com/

    That said, we still have the original hard drives with old blogs on them and are looking into plugging them in and generating new archives for older blogs like yours.

    No need to do anything. Thanks for your patience as we work on migrating over more archives!

    Also, In the meantime one of my programmers said that you might want to see if http://archive.org captured your site. All you have to do is type in the blog address in the Wayback Machine portion.

  • Hi,

    Do you still have my posts from untrusting_imbecile?

    Please let me know.

  • Hi,

    Same question as the others - do you have the old posts for @sukorosangel?

    Also, how do I start blogging again? I searched the Dashboard and 'my sites' but can't find the option to write/publish.

    Thanks!

  • When are you planning to plug them in? It has been nearly a whole year since the Xanga 2.0 update. Can't you have them sent immediately when requested? Its not like its a terabyte of data for each blog.

  • Hi, I'm guessing I didn't meet the requirement for the blog archive, but I would really like my old posts back. Sanctus_everglow_real is the username.

  • Hi, I also probably didn't meet the requirements but would love to see my posts again. If you could please revive them, that would be great! Thanks and hope to see xanga hit off again with the revamp :)

  • Same here ID is deathknight_tdk would love to be able to xanga again please help me thank you

  • my username was lifeassheseesit - would be very interested to have my posts back. thanks!
