    Comrade Simba's Account

    Is set to guest. And for the life of me I cant figure out why.
    It was not done intentionally. It appears to be related to the data issue we had a couple hours ago. I am running all the recovery stuff I can to try and recreate the profile but so far no luck.

    If anyone hears from him, please let him know the story. i have tried to email him as well.

    this is a first on me. Have never seen an account just get eaten like that.

    Worst case is that I create a new account for him, but trying everything to get his posts back and associated with his name.

    I knew something was going to drop on my head today :-(

    lol funny... I just crawled through the raw SQL data.. and COMRAD is not there, nor is any messed up name that would be his.
    His damn accoutn was deleted as fully as is I deleted it in the admin.

    Am I blacking out again?

    Comrade simba here - I created "billjac" to sneak in and find out why (I thought) I got booted from the forum. Turns out it is something that has never happened to Alex. Hmmmmm. move this fucker over to tinfoil - the NSA is on my ass?

    I'm being oppressed!

    If this is an explainable glitch and comrade simba can't be resuscitated I'll create "the comrade" and stay on the board. If it can't be explained I'm outta cyberspace for good.

    Remember my tag line? "It all goes Fucko Bazzoo"?

    No, don't go tinny. It's just a computer glitch. You probably dripped goat milk on yer keyboard!

    I just spent an hour rebuilding Simba' account from scratch.
    I created a new Comrade Simba account.

    Then I went through the database and edited each of the 309 posts from the
    old account, one by one and re-associated them with the new account.
    Whew

    I think this will actually work.

    I have never seen this before but felt like a shit so I rebuilt everything by hand.

    Sent you an email CS... please login and post here to let me know it worked.

    Thanks for the effort Alex.
    Now to figure out if I need to disappear before I get extraordinarily rendited to hotel Gitmo.

    ahrgh bitterness grumble and complain.
    Just kidding. I was getting ready to milk the goat and get ready for taekwondo and a bunch of other farmy things and probably came off as ungrateful. Scuze the slip.
    Still wondering if it's safe to play - what do you think alex?

    no your account was not compromised CS. I just discovered that while the anomaly here was your account, on my fishing forums, they lost a whole forum section. 12,000+ posts.
    I had to write a SQL query to go re associated all the orphans to a new forum we created. Same as yours, though I did yours by hand because I didnt want to go the code route if I didnt have to.

    So dont sweat it. Sorry for the drama.

    So out of 463 members mine gets zorched. Yeah, "anomaly" is a word that could be used; I wonder what the correlation between my profile and the 12000 posts in the fishing forum is. My deletion is fishy? Is that the message? Are the spooky ones saying we can disappear you in the flesh just as easily as whacking you in a forum?

    I quit smoking pot when it all became indica bud and turned me into a giant paranoid heart lung machine. Maybe I should get off the doom boards and just surf porn. This sucks.

    Wouldn't work either, dude. They'd just put you on a different list.
    Turnipgirl is always right. Unless I'm right. Unless she vetos that.
