I'm not sure exactly what happened. My account apparently got completely zapped. I had to reregister, but it let me use the same name and email. Also, all my posts now appear as "guest." Did I accidentally get whacked along with that spammer last night or something?

It looks like you got your login problem fixed.  A person will come on line with SV as GUEST if he/she erased the SV cookie on his/her computer.  I'm sorry that you lost all your previous work.  Jan

Weird!! No idea why that could have happened

Huh, weird. Whatever, it doesnt really matter. All my work is labeled anyway, so it's just my post count that's affected.

Oops, that was my mistake.

We had 3 spam messages show up, and there was a fourth with the spam quoted and an image link below below that was broken -- as if the spammer tried to link to an image but got the URL wrong.   I thought it was just another spam posting, didn't even look at the user name and deleted the account.

That message must have been you reporting it or something?

Anyway, give me some time and I'll see if I can get those messages reattached to your account and get your post count reset to the proper number.

I'm very sorry for the trouble!

atrasicarius, I was able to get all your posts reassigned to you and your post count is also updated.

Very sorry for the trouble!

No problem . The image was supposed to be from the Monty Python spam sketch, saying "I dont like spam!" Dont know why it was broken, I could see it fine. Thanks for reassigning my posts.
