Pharcellus here.
I noticed that the message board server was down most of the day yesterday, and when it came back up, I couldn't log in to my account. It said:
Error: Important notice! Your username has been changed to pharcellus. Please use this name to login to the forums.
or something close to that. The only difference I noticed is that my name was all lowercase, so I tried that, and it said "invalid password/username combo".
I tried doing the password recovery function with both names and got some weird errors, so I think my account got corrupted in the database somehow.

Looks definitely like the account is hosed. Look at any of my previous messages. No data appears on them. No name, no join date, no post count, no karma, etc.

I haven't got a clue why your account would be messed up, Pharcellus. You might want to go to the proboards support section support.proboards.com/index.cgi?. Several of the proboards servers were down yesterday, including server 29 (our server). As for the pathetic banner, I deleted it. Sorry for trying to make it a bit nicer. Fuck you all : ) Actually Pharcellus...I can see that your member name is fubar on the memberlist. I will try to fix it. PHARCELLUS: see if you can create Pharcellus again.

I don't think those support boards are for general members, but for forum admins. At any rate, I don't have an account there.

Did you delete me or something?

Weird. It still was acting strange, but I got in, I think.

Of course, the old posts are not linked to this account, and the stats are all rezeroed. At least I have a valid excuse for starting over as a crybaby!

Nope. When I looked at the members list, there was a blank space where your account should have been. So I deleted the blank space.
Recreate Pharcellus and your name should be associated with all the posts you made, though your post count will be reset to 0.

awww dont go up and quit now...Im working on a replacement ~ Whats the size of that btw.? Don't bother. Apparently banners are a matter of taste. Perhaps it is best if we don't impose ours on each other.

OK, posts are associated with name now. Cool.
Still don't know what happened. Nothing I did on my end, for sure.

Just one of those mysteries we will never understand. : )
