And here I thought today couldn't possibly get worse.

Wow, what happened? Surely just a weird glitch. I hope the day improves.

[spatch]

Glitches don't delete entire user accounts (the forum info for Amusement Park Madness> now reads as being written by <Deleted User> so I'm guessing 90-day deletion. But I know I logged in at least once in the past 3 months, because I had to talk to Fleep about some SL stuff.

The day won't improve, that much I know. But oh well. Two drops in a bucket; motherfuck it.

But if they didn't purge, their user database would overflow, what with the flood of new users that place gets every week!

SL?

That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. Spatch! Look up Vertigo Paris! ;)

I would if I could, but I don't play there anymore. And I'm pretty sure my account's been deleted for inactivity, much like my old one from the 2002 beta was.

Ah well, perhaps it's for the best. Nobody wanted to worship at the Church of Starship, anyway.

Awww!

[markm.livejournal.com]

I know a nice, friendly mud which doesn't delete the accounts of upstanding, solid, respected citizens such as yourself...

[jotasbrane.livejournal.com]

Seconded. There's even this one guy who hasn't shown up since May '05 whose account is still there waiting for him.

[rosalux.livejournal.com]

Fleep would totally sponsor you, dude. She's sad we don't come play on her playground. And you make fun stuff.

I think somehow they dialed down the 90-day to something lower lately, or did a one-time purge for no apparent reason, because heaping gobs of accounts disappeared. I spent a sad evening recently profiling all of my oldest and dearest and noticing that they're all gone (although most are long-time gone, not just recently). And several people have had to recreate their accounts.

I haven't heard anything about any purgation. I've actually just asked TF to stop purging altogether.

You're revalidated, Mr. Spatch. :)
