Rollback 2018

    Hi everyone,

    The rollback has completed as of this morning and the STs are diligently working on recapping and reposting some items. I *believe* they will post an all clear for threads or areas that are good to resume posting as normal. Thank you for all your patience over the last couple of weeks, and in hindsight I regret not pulling the trigger on rolling back the site earlier. I was hoping with finding the root of what caused this all to happen that I'd be able to either fix it or prevent it from happening again.

    After last Friday it became apparent that the issue was actually spreading unpredictably through the database and any hope of tracking what had been corrupted and fixing it was lost.

    Through all of this though I've identified some areas of opportunity so hopefully in the coming weeks/months I can implement some extra safeguards to make rollbacks less painful or for this situation in general to not likely happen again. I want to express the importance that if you see something weird occurring to please say something to me as soon as you possibly can about it.

    Lastly, I'd like to throw a big shout out to West . He spent more than a few late nights and early mornings helping with troubleshooting and it made things a fair bit easier having his expertise handy.

    Thank you, and let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

    I can speak no words of thanks for all the hard work Youngblood, West, Saber Sloth, and all the moderators are putting into this. Not without giving everyone a text to speech program.

    So I'll just visit donations as money talks.

Thin woody vines broached and twined across his milky-white skin, with leaves and budding flowers breaking into bloom at his cuffs.

    Thank so much! I want to report an odd (to me) issue just in case it's a bigger deal than it seems: I had just joined the site on September 7, so after the roll back, I created a new account with a new name and avatar, and posted in the introduction topic, and my posts show the ild, prerollback avatar, but when I checked my profile, the new avatar exists. So somehow the old avatar is still in the site memory and associated with my account, but not in the account control as the avatar, just in posts.

    Maybe it's just me and my browser.

    Does anyone else see a green circle with a Japanese kanji character (old avatar) instead of a white circle with the word, "Ruach" and Hebrew letters (new avatar)?

    I'm seeing the latter.
