But just a few days ago I didn't post but I cleaned house and got rid of some information I didn't want and created a new sections so today i could add some new informatin in it that I wanted,

If there are no posts for 21 days, forums get deleted.
No warning gets sent if there are less than 100 posts.
If you had more than 100 posts, check your spam folder of your email account. The emails sometimes get filtered into spam folders.

ForumUp forums are meant to be used as forums, with members having discussions. They are not meant to be online storage.
Why not just save your recipes in a document on your computer? _________________ Margaret /gg'ssimon~ForumUp World-Wide Administrator

I use it because it's my personal choice to use your service to meet my needs. And last I checked it wasn't against against against the rules.
So is there a way to get it back like some of the others? |

I don't save it on my computer because it takes up space that I need for other things, and it's a lot easier to find what I need when it's on the forumup.
But if i can get it back for a little while I'll be happy to remove my info and then it can be closed down. |

Once a forum no longer exists, there is not way to get it back.
You must not have made a post for 21 days, resulting in it autodeleting.
Regarding your comment :

It is actually against the rules of ForumUp. The rules state that ForumUp forums are to be used as a "community". That means not as a storage site.

Well, it takes up space on ForumUp's server! Server space is not unlimited. That is why our Webmaster has the rule that forums are to be used as forums, not storage space. He just recently told the staff, "A forum is a community network, not a archive for one people!"
But anyway, we did not ban your forum. It would have been autodeleted due to no posts for 21 days. _________________ Margaret /gg'ssimon~ForumUp World-Wide Administrator

a while ago I did use another fourm url for a forum and once in awhile when posting got lax it would give me the same page that it was removed but there was a link at the bottom of the page to reactivate it.
And while I was the only poster on my forumup, it wasn't the only one who used it. I did have friend who went there to get specific information from time to time, so therefore it was community, because of that. |

No, that does not count as a "community" or using the forum as a forum. A forum means many people post to discuss topics.
Why don't you get your own blog or website? Some are free. Those are the type of sites meant for your purposes. Forums are not. _________________ Margaret /gg'ssimon~ForumUp World-Wide Administrator

The purpose why i was edited the site the last few days was because I already had the site and I was going to set up a section for quite a few friends of mine who are in the crafting and soap making industry as a place to post about where to buy certain bath and body product ingredients. As well as some recipes we wanted to share with each other.
Thanks for looking into the possibility of getting my site back,
thanks |

That is exactly what i was trying to set up, instead of posting I had been cleaning old stuff out and to make new posts and create a site for some of soap craftrs to post and use as a forum......
While i'm sure my last post was less than 21 days ago, I also know that in my cleaning house to do this that post was also deleted...... |

If you want a forum, you will have to start over.
Still, a blog might suit your needs better. With a blog, you can set it up for public feedback. Have a look:
