John,

I can no longer remember whether all FAQs were lost forever, but now their desirability has been mentioned (again) in the first post of this thread in the GoLive forum by the other John, who by the way is one of the victims of split ID:

He gave the short answer in this parallel thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/446825?tstart=0

Can they be restored, or rebuilt?

    This topic has been closed for replies.

    It's really sad the amount of good threads lost... Thanks to you a lot were recovered in the Illy forum... but how many others bothered, or knew enough, in other forums...

    Your Abyss project was a marvellous effort Jacob.

    Cheers..

    JJ

    Thank you for your kind words, Jay.

    In connexion with the first nightmare, I archived all the Illustrator Windows FAQs; when the fair forums returned I deleted them, unfortunately.

    As far as I remember, the plan was to keep them this time, so I did not archive them, unfortunately.

    By the way, restoring the FAQs would really piss off the point hounds, who are racking them up with boilerplate answers. I swear some are using keyboard macro programs for phrases like "delete preferences."

    Were the FAQs to be reinstated, perhaps the point hounds would go away. I know, I know... just dreamin'...


    Brainwashing caused by years of reading the reset perfs response have manifested into a cult using it as a fix-it-all type auto-response.
