I sure as hell hope I dont get purged, I like my characters and have do e a ton more for RHA than past leaders. Killing off people's entire work on this game is going to far.
Thats coming from the person that torches peoples pobs that have existed for years.
@sindroms hopefully you dont roll with your impressions and guesses before causing exterminatus next time then. Why you didnt ask alley or someone knew surely before committing a purge?

No, I assure you, I will continue pushing buttons I do not know about o7
Alley was at work.
She is scolding me as we speak.

It's a tool that will delete all post of a spammer and ban the IP, as you knew that already since its not the first time is being used while you were been part of the staff.
It's meant to stop a spammer as the name suggested and its the only option a moderator has to ban an ip.
Is there a way to even revert such a purge in the event someone presses it?
Like, sure, Shiki deserved a slap, but not everythin to be deleted. He worked hard for all he has done.
Its like someone stepping in your carefully tended to garden for 30 years, and putting a flamethrower on it and saying "sux2bu"
This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Get the snapshot DB of the forum that is 1 week old. Start exporting only posts made by Shiki then import those DB entries into the current DB of the running forum. Of course that would probably only be possible if IDs in the database tables didn't get overwritten or something after the purge. I'm not an expert here though, never did any MyBB administrating.
i think conrad set the backup to be made once each 3 days last time
however admins don't have that kind of access(only to VM of a the windows running the fl server) and no knowledge of how to restore specific posts/threads
so.. up to alley
People want to believe that God has a plan for them.
They don't wanna believe that anyone else does..
