But when I go to postings I can't find those posts. Well, now I see the post from this thread, but not the original 2.

Maybe JakeGeorge means he was notified of having an "alert" as I see two "likes" for his first post. ???
Click the ALERTS box upper right, next to your use name and inbox.

No, I posted before I got the likes.

I'm pretty sure that I posted a couple of messages when I registered a couple years ago. I'm trying to find them back. Searching by members for JakeGeorge didn't find them. That's why I was wondering if maybe posts get archived or deleted at some point.

If the posts are so old they were on the Ikon Board version, you won't be able to find them. We weren't able to leave the archived posts available to members as there was a security issue with that software that did not have an easy way to patch to prevent unwanted access.
