I tried to re-re-log in but my username was taken (Sagemind)
I tried again with an altered username (Sagemindd) but my email was taken (lnickel@telus.net
I had to create a new account again using an altered username (want my old one back and used my work email (need my home email used)
I had to do this because I couldn't get in here to post without an account.

Sage, that happened to me.. one of the earlier attempts to fix people blanked out their names and screwed something up. Nicolebee and my email are still member it seems.. So I guess we're hosed and will have to wait for lucky or dag to get back.

TO ALL SIFT ADDICTS - If you are here and can't get into your account, find your number and we will do what we can, but I suggest everyone takes a day or so break from the site and don't put more pressure on dag and lucky than they're already under, go and get some fresh air!

(imstellar28)

I just want to go ahead and apologize for what I did yesterday. I posted to sift-talk an innovative, never-before-seen scientific analysis of a half dozen economic indicators. burturgler at the time commented that "I put all these graphs together and got this: <inserts posts of atom bomb exploding>" At the time I was irritated at this trolling, but would like to go ahead and state that burdturgler, I am sorry, you are truly a prophet! The amount of scientific badass-ness was apparently too much for VideoSift's database and it exploded just as the prophet burdturgler (praise be upon him) predicted.

Again I am very sorry.

I'm good now, deputy. I just had to reset my password.

8024 is me

You're fixed lavoll.

I'm missing some star points. I think they're from deadpool fixes before the rules were changed regarding them. How is that being handled?

Sorry all deadpool fix info is gone. After all this madness has died down we'll try to rebuild that information (by scanning siftbot's comments).

>> ^Aemaeth:

Leave these comments and questions somewhere else.

Gwiz665 made a great suggestion in his blog post: Google your user name AND Videosift. Then click the "cached" link. This should display the most recently cached image of your profile page.

This won't help with your log in problem, but maybe it can help dag and lucky restore your numbers:

- star points
- votes received
- votes cast
- comments applauded

....etc. Mine was cached yesterday at around 10:20 GMT, so it's about 34 hours old. I suggest doing a screen cap once you view it, because it won't be cached forever. I don't know if it will dag and lucky, but it certainly won't hurt to save the image either.

Just to clear up confusion.. The "used-to-be-Username" is automatically assigned when your old videos are assigned to the newly created acct.

You re-register same username (since it got nuked) and it gets assigned to 10001 which is your old acct minus your old username (it got nuked).

My username appears in tact and the videos I've posted appear to have my name attached, but my "sifted videos" button is wack. everything is groovy.

If there is a problem you might want to ask Lucky about it.
