My computer died, and an important chat of mine is just…gone. Like the link won’t work, I checked archives, nothing, it’s just…gone, and I don’t know what to do. That chat was VERY important. I can’t afford to redo stuff now. Someone please help me. ---

I have the same issue. Yesterday, for no reason at all, the page went blank and then, a big part of the conversation history disappeared! Now, I cannot continue project development, since important data doesn’t exist anymore. What can I do to recover conversation history? ---

I am getting so fed up with paying for a service that keeps going down.
