Why are 90% of my posts missing? [View all]

Lately I've been logging in to DU to read but not to post for a few weeks. I just logged on with my password and noticed that 90% of my previous posts are missing. Where are 90% of my posts? That represents a lot of conscientious, unpaid work. I put a lot of trust in DU to treat all its members with consideration. Losing a lot of files, or worse, just tossing them, leaves me kind of speechless. Could it be a computer error? Surely there is a back-up file for everything.
