Lost users restored - Remnant - 11-28-2015

An accident earlier this week caused ~9000 accounts with low post count (less than 2) to be obliterated by the forum software.
These accounts have been restored.

Space has been deleted, the original Space account has been returned. If you (@Error) want that name, see about it with the admins.
Wizard has been renamed back to Wizard.. Same deal here.

As for everyone else that recreated accounts, they have been restored or not depending on the post count. If there was no posts previously, you will still have your current account. If you had posts on the previous account, the new one has been deleted in favor of the old one.

It appears we've also recovered the poor @mwerte (negative post count tends to do cool things) and the dreaded @Colony News Service.

The lost posts will be relinked to their owner later this weekend.

No worries, just wanted to give it a try while it was available; my apologies for any inconvenience that may have been caused, and thanks for the effort with getting the lost accounts restored again! Smile

Posts have been reassigned. They might not be if you have created a new account with the same name in-between.
The name will still appear as grey unclickable in thread view if you were the OP, but once opened everything will be fine.
