Umm...Where did I go?
« on: February 11, 2008, 10:13:46 PM »
Last night, I attempted to log in, and I was informed that I did not exist.  :)

I created an new account under the same name (Yes I am the myrdinemries that has been here several months. You can check the IP addresses if you wish.) so things seem okay now...

How could this have happened? I did not deliberately destroy my account, is there a way I could have done it by accident?

And the main question. Is there any way to associate my old posts back with me?

How recently did you first register your account?

Unfortunately, the realities of a shared webhosting provider is that occasional small database hiccups like this might occur.

I'll keep an eye out; thanks for bringing this to our attention.

I don't know of any way to re-associate your old posts, at least not in a "avoid being  a titanic pain in the ass to do" sort of way. :)

No earlier than October, but no later than November, last year. I have no clue exactly when. I'm not an oldtimer here by any means, but I've been around a while.

No problem. I guess this stuff just happens.  :)
