    sometimes that happens when we delete people but dont delete their posts for "forensics" after the fact.

    We run reasonably regular retotals on the database and clean ups. Should sort itself out.

    It happens, nearly all of the original posts on CTYI forum are marked as guest for the first few months, they weren't at the time.

    URK!?

    Thats weird. I'll report it to the various admin-like entities for forensics (trans: we'll scratch our heads over that one).

    Actually it's something that I've explained in a previous thread, when we imported both the old UBB bulletin and community forums only one set of user data was imported and the posts belonging to old community posts appear as guest.

    It's something I hope to fix by reimporting the community posts to another table and doing some sort of compare to replace the guests with proper usernames.
