Lost content, lost posts, and more

I think others have pointed this out, but I'll just reiterate the obvious. The recent format changes also have resulted in a sizeable loss of content. Below is the Raleigh real estate forum from https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/726-raleigh-real-estate-forum

This page shows three posts total, yet I know I've posted over three posts and none are presented. Likewise, the Asheville NC forum show no posts, but I posted there in the past year.

I think all the above issues are just bugs, probably related to a SQL query. The bigger problem is that images have been removed from LOTs of posts, mine and others. Here is a post from a year ago where images are still present: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/948523-lumber-prices-hit-all-time-high and a post from three years ago where ALL of the images are removed: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/575/topics/715960-total-available-market-2-3-and-4-units. Without the images, the posts from Art and me have very little value. 

The old format and content made BiggerPockets a much better platform. Hopefully there is a way to bring back the content and format. 

Notes: I've tried browsing on two computers and an Android phone with the same results. Also, these issues have existed for quite some time, several months at a minimum.
