What a bummer.....

[Sweeper]

Since the TechIMO glitch that messed with everyone's post counts, mine went from 3100 or so down into the 1000's.... So even though I have a custom title, I can't go in and change it anymore until I reach 3000 AGAIN. BUMMER!

Patience, Sweeper, patience.

Let's give Scott ample time to fix this, as if we try to hurry him it may make the database worse instead of better.

It'll be fixed in good time, no doubt.

Cheers

I have no doubt that he will resolve the issue, I had just forgot about it until I tried to change my Title.... then I was bummed...

I just noticed that you can google search for "your_nickname techimo" without the quotes, then click "cached" and it should pull up a post you made fairly close to just before the database error. Might come in handy for those that have no idea what their # was

Admins have backups that'll tell 'em that. AFAIK, the idea is to run a script that looks at the current post count, compares it to the backup count, and adds posts made since the backup.

Getting the script exactly right would require a fair bit of fine-tuning, though.
