That sucks, i've definitely lost a few thousand coins over the various versions of this coin.  It was very important to make sure you were on the right chain early on.  If you mined on a forked chain, there's nothing anyone can do to recover your coins.  It looks like the network is working better now, even when the hashpower ramps up with quick blocks, but it's still good to check (a few times a day) that you have the same height as the block explorer.
