I broke it.. or Welcome to the TPU time machine

W1zzard · Sep 19, 2010, 02:13 PM

This morning I deleted all users from before 2010-01-01 who didn't confirm their email yet, ie. users that entered a wrong or non-working email addres .. at least that's what I thought.

I seems in reality I deleted a large chunk of our users, so I had to restore the last backup.

Sorry

some avatars, sigpics or attachments might still be broken, please report them here

JrRacinFan · Sep 19, 2010, 02:15 PM

It's quite alright. Yeah, when i signed up I no longer have that email address. Thanks w1zz!

At first I thought I was banned! LOL

EDIT:

Oh and you are quite forgiven

hat · Sep 19, 2010, 02:19 PM

I was wondering why I couldn't log in... had to reset my password. Also, it seems one of my threads disappeared... it was titled "when did nvidia start using dedicated physx chips" or something like that.

My personal data is alright, I just noticed that the masterpiece that I made for erocker in this thread is gone

. Was it considered abusive or against the rules? (Wondering why I didn't get an infraction...) If so, I'm sorry. I though it would be entertaining and a good tribute.

Radical_Edward · Sep 19, 2010, 02:42 PM

Ah, that would explain this image earlier this morning then.

Kreij · Sep 19, 2010, 02:43 PM

There is a lot of missing data.
Like I said, it looks like about 30 hours worth.
I am missing several PMs and lots of threads have been rewound in time.
Do not assume things were removed because they were innapropriate.
