Not in the least bit DWN, the data is gone. You can search the first couple tags, but once you blow the character limit (you know, from plugins, or the game itself), the last tags (depending on length here), usually just contain garbage from the previously set tags. The request, unfortunately, is still just noise unless if they do intend on fixing the problem.
