I can't change my Avatar BTW.
I lost my account and had to re-subscribe. I had about 400 posts but I'm not that bothered about my post count resetting to zero - more upset by not being able to see all my subscribed threads :-(
I wouldn't worry about your Avator for now. Subsribed threads are in the same boat.
I'm guessing subsribed threads are gone. Threads would have been deleted and they ain't going to come back. The same thing is going for Users.
I'm also not able to see any newly subscribed threads.
Same here,Quote:

old username: Behemoth (with a capital "B" :p)
old postcount: somwhere between 1200 and 1800 posts, I think.
I don't think it's necessary to post our 'guessed' post counts. If Karl wanted to correct them surely the best way would be to run a script that queried the post database for each user pulling the number of posts and updating the user profile.
On an already busy forum, with over 30,000 members, and over 1 million posts, that could take hours to complete :)Quote:

Would it?Quote:

If the database is well designed with good indexes then I don't see why it should take that long - especially if it was done 'off-peak'. If it was likely to take hours then I presume back-ups are taken so why not use one of these on a seperate machine that could run the job then just migrate the results back to the live machine.
Besides it could take many hours to manually update peoples post counts.
Previously, I used to get one email per thread with new posts.
Now I am receiving one email per post. This is annoying.
Wow,
This account is really old...
My previous one is gone (phrozeman) i almost had 200 posts, registred sice April 2000 or 2001...
So i wanted to register my old nickname back (phroze), but the register function doesn't work!! :rolleyes:
Can anyone change this acount nickname to phroze and my posts back ? :D
Thanx
how can you do that? the reason nobody has posts anymore is becasue they are gone. duh, you can't query something that is not there.Quote:

I have a friend and his name was scoutt and his posts were like 2900.
I think that was a hack some one put in. And yes it used to do that here. Give it time and they will fix it.Quote:

I'm not worried by any of this stuff. Yes have lost over 2000 post counts but who cares, it's not going to be the end of the world. Lost some threads which l was keeping an eye on, but what the hey repost the question. Have done that and am still not getting an answer to a question.
Life goes on, be happy the board is back up and running, stop whinging.....
Yeah, with a good database (vBulletin manages it quite well, up to a point and I think that's where VBF is :rolleyes:!) it could take mere seconds.
I had a post count of about 600. Maybe even 600 becuase I remember breaking 600 then when I came back my account was gone :(
Did you have more then one account carp, maybe another one is active....
No, This was my account before. I just recreated it yesterday.
Well the Forums are back, and I think I'm the first one on.
All hail me!! lol :D
JungleMan

I don't care about my post archive, just give me my post count and user name.
Thanks to everyone that has contributed to this thread.
The following changes have been made:

- Phrozeman > username changed from blcrew, 200 post count with registered date in April 2000

- Spetnik > post count altered to 1400
Feel free to continue posting all genuine change requests. These will be actioned ASAP.
Also, please note that we are currently in the process of arranging for our sites to be moved to bigger and better machines.

LOL:D no idea karl, somewhere between 10 and 3,000,000...
progeix, something around 600
i'd like to keep this name, if possible or rename the other member to this if you do it that way, whichever is easiest
Finally got registered again, had to have jungleman register for me, as i kept getting a blank error when trying to register
I dont really care about the post count, but having so many "Zaei Status: Guest"'s floating around is a bit strange. Is there anyway to change my User ID, back to what it was? If not, no problem, like I said, I dont really mind at all =).
Z.
RobIII:
Post-count about 650/700 ??? Dunno exactly....
woo-hoo! I can finally get in again :D, it's been such a nightmare trying to re-register, but I'm back!
hope things are getting better at your end of this Karl, I'm sure you are having a complete nightmare...
anyway.. I had about 1300 posts, and I think I registered about a year ago :rolleyes: my welcome message was one of the few potentially important mails I didn't keep!
Post Count = 400
Registered = April 01
I may as well get mine fixed if you are doing them :)
Cheers Karl.
User Name = Stevie
Post Count = 560
Registered = March 00
Why is it that I am logged in as Stevie in the vb-world main site, but I can't log in as Stevie in the forums?
Awww....I feel all warm and cuddly inside. Thanks, Karl :)Quote:

My post count was about 600. Thanks.
I wouldn't mind my user name back.... being reborn is all fine and dandy, but the extra 7 characters are killing me...
I had about 1350 or 1400 posts. If you can query the DB, it should be easy - search for "- gaffa" in the actual thread. I never used a signature, so my name is in every post I made... knew I did that for some reason :D
- gaffa
I'd like my post count fixed back up..
I believe it was probably somewhere between 1400 and 1700.
If you could pop my previous account name on this account, add in the 2400 odd posts l'm missing, also add the ones from account jritchie (my first one), and jump down turn around and pick a bail of cotton ... l would be a happy vbf member...
Cheers.
Still I am not able to view my old post,
Please.....I don't care about post count but the precious replies, and some solved problems,
and still not able to place avatar,
Karl please help, I know it will take time but still......
Regards
Gary
Pffft... I've never heard of such a person or edible gelatine mix :( :pQuote:

Just thought I'd put this in here as well, as I would like it resolved please.
This is strange and frustrating.
On the main forums page, the list of currently active users shows Stevie (me).
If I go into any forum the users browsing this forum list does not show me. (before anybody says it, I have the option set to show my username in the list)
I still can't log in as Stevie, although it says I successfully logged in, then shows me another screen saying I couldn't log in.
All my posts, post count, settings remain the same.
What has happened.
I'm getting very stressed!! :mad:
I had a post count of approximately 500. If it could be restored it would be greatly appreciated - thanks.
Guys, just report your Username and Posts, if you gunna ***** about something, then, another thread please.

Back when the boards where young, and John and James actually did post in chit chat;) When Mr Wrenn was a regular trailer pack resident, and we had nukem and Darkprogrammer as targets... back when it was still wild and uncharted terrain. Will try and dig out an old post for ya that's not too boring:DQuote:

Was there also a mythical D Willems character back then? :eek:
Check the thread l chucked in chit chat BB, my first ever post ... and l was agreeing with Serge:D
Love your alliteration there Jello... yeah I saw it ... you started clueless and remain clueless :D lol You are my Icon of Mediocrity :D
I would like my post count to be fixed too. Fix it so it's 4095. Then I shall post once in the General section and get a custom status :D:D
And if you ain't gonna fix me up, my account seems to be just fine. Just make sure it stays that way :eek:
.
