Trying to upload it, I get the message that http://lah.li/download.php?id=237269 has already been posted in http://lah.li/p/310301 . Trying to open http://lah.li/p/310301 - to see in which thread it has been posted and hopefully also to enjoy more attachments in that same post! - I got the message "The topic or post you requested does not exist". Trying to open the attachment http://lah.li/download.php?id=237269 itself I got "Sorry but you are not authorized to view or download this Attachment".
EDIT:
strange enough the medium sized version has dissappeared too, when you now try to open the medium sized version above you get the message "The selected Attachment does not exist anymore".
I attach the medium sized version below in this edit so you can still see what we're talking about

As the latter message says, the original attachment is posted on a thread which has been moved to a moderator-only board. I'll request a review.

Thank you for the quick respons, I'll wait for the result.

Ok, that explains the message "Sorry but you are not authorized to view or download this Attachment", I guessed it might be part of an EFM post.
The other message: "The topic or post you requested does not exist" remains confusing, it should have read "The topic or post you requested has been moved to a moderator-only board."?

Don´t really see why it should.
The member that have made the thread get that information, for everyone else that thread is dead. Saying that it doesn't exist or is in a staff section won´t really matter.

Yeah, Anyien is right -- as far as regular users are concerned, there isn't much of a difference between deleted and removed from public view due to moderation reasons. Providing different messages for these would enable bots to data-mine thread IDs which they do not have access to.
Maybe it could display "The requested page is currently unavailable" instead of "does not exist", as it would be more accurate in regards to thread/post IDs which are removed, under moderation or not created yet. In the end, error messages' wording is not really high priority, there are lots of messages that could do with improvements at the moment.

mhm I hadn't thought of that use case. "Unavailable" in that context can be seen as a generic superset of non-existence, although the "currently" implies a sense of temporality. But yeah, it is better to be explicit on that case - things are either removed or not, and in a few cases may be de-removed.

My confusion originally was only about the fact that - for a simple user like me - an attachment is always supposed to be attached to a post. So when I try to see an attachment and I see the message "Sorry but you are not authorized to view or download this Attachment" I guess it might be part of an EFM post, or some other post I may or may not be authorized to open. So, trying to open the mother-post of the attachment, the message: "The topic or post you requested does not exist" was confusing me, and it still does.
I hope that when the problems with the thread are solved, that the link to http://lah.li/p/310301 will be repaired - it still is present in my Psycho post just like imo very interesting links to other threads/posts.
................... holy moses, the toddlercon thread has been messed up, old links like in " my Psycho post " don't work anymore; yesterday it still was on page 76, now on 75 .........what a mess .................
You should use the /p/POST_ID link format to link to specific posts, which you get by right-clicking the in the top-left of a given post and selecting Copy link. In your case that'd be http://lah.li/p/320708. Linking to a specific page in a thread is never future-proof, as thread merges and cleaning may change what is displayed on that thread page anytime.
better idea than in EDIT1: software may look only at #320708 ?! Check later on -when I have more time - in old thread New URL's!

That "problem" was solved years ago, and it won´t come back even now.

It´s not messed up, it was cleaned up.
Most of the images Faust posted did not belong in there, and 4 of the images you posted had already been posted by Faust so they were removed as well.

That post no longer exists per se. It already does not exist for the general public, and once its attachments are relocated to another post (which then you will probably have access to) the post will be permanently deleted from the moderators board as well.
So yes, that post is already dead, and its attachments are under moderation until they are relocated.

==> some shit happened between Friday Oct 04, 2013 16:54 and Saturday Oct 05, 2013 01:08
EDIT:
with shit I was thinking of virus, spam, ...; the dates of the shit itself may be way before (if the thread started long time ago) or after (when the mod detected it much later than the posts with 237243...82), but not later than Wednesday May 21, 2014 16:53 = http://lah.li/p/320708 = http://lah.li/4815/toddlercon/?page=75#320708 .

All of them (and a couple more) are under moderation, as you'd expect. All of them were posted by the same user in the same thread which is under moderation, just in case your detective skills couldn't figure out that bit.

I was only guessing (see also the sneaky edit in my previous post).
I guess cleaning up a messy thread - like the toddlercon thread was a while ago, every serious visitor must have seen that - consumes a lot of time and energy for one corrector. I think the following has been done before on lah: you can involve serious members (like me) to help sorting out things, these members probably like to do that where the mod becomes sick and tired working on it on his own

Though I'm favor of more community participation in these matters, it doesn't quite fit in our current system yet. Anyien volunteers his time on these clean ups, and if we ever have too much moderation work (which is hardly the case), Sat may test and promote more users to modhood.
