Update: I fixed it! You may find a few topics from the past few days that are marked as "unread" again, but now everyone's logs are back to what they used to be on Monday.

If you're logged in, you'll notice that you have tons and tons of "unread" posts. The reason for this is that I accidentally deleted a ton of them, and I was trying to restore them all with a backup but that just wouldn't work for some reason. So the table has been reset, and you'll just have to go and click on the Mark All Topics Read button, and then maybe catch up on the latest posts using the More Topics page.

What happened was that I was deleting a bunch of spam accounts when I made a typo and accidentally deleted my account and some related info from other database tables. So I tried to restore a backup from a few hours ago, but something went wrong and the backup was never formed, so I had to use a backup from two nights ago instead. No posts, topics, levels, or anything similar were lost. Although, some post and karma counts may be slightly off.

However, the_grimace's account was lost. But I already made it so that he will be contacted when he tries to log in again.

So yeah, nothing major here. Move along...

nah, that's just censors overriding each other. Not worthy of fixing...

But this could explain why no one was here yesterday. They probably thought no one was posting.

FIXED!

Everyone's logs are back to normal now, so it's like none of this ever happened!

It's been reset to what it was on Monday now, so all the topics and posts from the past two/three days will be marked as unread again, but at least everything else isn't. Like I said, I couldn't restore it before because it was so big and the server would time out all the SQL queries. I tried breaking it into smaller queries, but each was still very huge and it still didn't work. So today I spent a few hours working on it; I spent a good while trying to figure out how to use regular expression to break then up into small ones.

so yeah, nothing's wrong anymore.

Code:

aych bee: 28 => 34
a_neezles_a: 407 => 408
Bmwsu: 797 => 799

Cedric_09_: 854 => 848
Ckjr: 1302 => 1304
Dando: 717 => 718

DeathBunni X: 51 => 54

Teo_pl: 1139 => 1142
the_grimace: 1 => 6
Yaya: 1556 => 1552
Why did some people go down? Well, it seems that if you posted on a level, video, or news post, and then that level, video, or news post was deleted, your postcount would not go down to what it should be. That's been fixed now, and what a fail that it wasn't noticed sooner.

shosConfusionCount++;

And right now I'm trying to figure out why a karma recount would result in different karma for some people whose karma shouldn't be changing.

soccerboy13542: 46 => 47
sup_mus: -23 => -24
ThedeglitcherXD: 22 => 20
the_grimace: 0 => 1

Possible reasons for why some people's karma changed:
-it was karma from the past few days which wasn't accounted for
-it had a manual karma increase from after the last karma recount after the karma war, in which people complained that their karma had lowered.
-in the case of some staff accounts, it could've had any other manual karma changes.

also, I made sure not to touch jell's karma.

At first I thought there was something wrong with the karma system, so I kept looking for possible holes in the system. After finding none, I guess it's plausible that the possible reasons I just gave are responsible for some of these karma changes.
