Bigboi and Light Dasher

[I'll Begin]

I'll take any warnings/bans for asking this.

Anyways I was browsing these forums and notised that Bigboi and Light Dasher had their accounts deleted. Anyone know why?

<Ill_begin> why did they delete Bigboi's account?
<Ill_begin> and Light Dasher's too
<Dark_Tails> Accident.
<Flame_the_hedgehog> Too much of a Troll for bigboi.
<Ill_begin> yeah but Light Dasher was only suspended
<Flame_the_hedgehog> Wait, Lightdasher's was an Accident? O_o;
<Dark_Tails> Both were.
<Flame_the_hedgehog> Hm...
<Dark_Tails> Heh, someone sign up as BigBoi!
<Flame_the_hedgehog> I dont think Bigboi was, but lightdasher could have been
<Flame_the_hedgehog> Lol
<DarkWarrior> ...No.
<Dark_Tails> BigBoi was.
<Ill_begin> Bigboi
<Ill_begin> Guest
<Ill_begin> and it's like that for Light Dasher too

Was it really an accident?

Whatever conspiracy theory you'd like to add, that's fine, but we don't delete accounts intentionally. It is, however, a single check box to kill an account, so it's entirely feasible it would be done accidentally. I see no reason why they'd be deleted intentionally. Bigboi's account was locked down, after all. No reason to delete it.

That clears things up. Thanks.

I found the cause of the problem. A mod has been installed in the forums to automatically delete users that meet certain conditions. It was set to delete users that hadn't activated their account after 15 days, and to delete anyone who has 0 posts after 90 days of creating an account. Since we just deactivate accounts when we tempban a person, the mod thought that the user never activated their account, so it deleted them. I have fixed this problem, so we shouldn't have to worry about it now. However, I don't think I can reverse the affect on the people it has already deleted.

Oh...my god. All those 4200 posts Bigboi made....all lost. That must hurt. Soon, one of the greatest poster in the community will not even apear in history books. What a shame.....

 

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

He was the second greatest poster and shuffle had the most posts. Bigbois posts are not gone, just bigboi. FF said he could reverse the effect.

Even though he annoyed me, I'll miss Bigboi -_-.
But who's gonna make over 4000 posts now?

Me? I have 4376.

 

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

His posts are not gone you can still read them. Also, Shuffle is that including or not including that post with the figure.

 

[BlazingPhoenix]

Who cares about posts anyway?

Quoted for truth. Post counts are just a number people. Who cares.

 

[I'll Begin]

Could this mean that anyone who was banned/suspended could just sign up again? :|

 

[Shuffle]

You can do that, anyways.

 

[TimberWolf]

But who's gonna make over 4000 posts now?

I've been known to do that, just ask Boinciel.

 

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

Do it in the SRB2 forums and I will believe you.

 

[Spazzo]

Do it in the SRB2 forums and I will believe you.

You kidding? That's the last thing we need here.

Take his word for it, I've seen it happen.

 

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

I haven't and I think shuffle must be lonely being the only person here with over 4000 post.

 

[Maou-Shin Daioka]

Do you even see Bigboi in netgames anymore?
I hope he didn't quit SRB2 altogether...

 

[TimberWolf]

The one thing that's preventing me from obtaining 4000+ posts in a month is:
1. I can't WAD
2. I can't SOC
3. I'm not that good at spriting yet
4. This place is boring
5. We can't have any forum games

So the only way I can obtain 4000+ posts is if I spam, which'll jsut get me banned before I get there.

Awhibble

He's not that kind of member anymore. When he came back, the only SRB2-related thing he did was post here.
