Gnus only takes note of the article numbers and knows that you have
read all the messages from 1 through 50,000, say. If the news server
admin now decides to renumber all the articles to numbers starting at
1, you won't be able to read the first 50,000 articles.
Have a look at the article number (in the mode line in the summary
buffer I think) to verify that this is the case. If so, the
gnus-group-clear-data and gnus-group-clear-data-on-native-groups
commands might help.
