Yeah, his account seems to be gone.
I should take a few minutes to look and see what the behavior is when an account is deleted. Do their votes get put back? If they had comments, do those comments get deleted? If they don't get deleted, are they then attributed to the account when an account with the same username is recreated?
Alas, I've gotta write about snowshoes for Phuks. I think that's my plan for this afternoon.
You know I’ve been intentionally vague about what happens as I’m still on the fence about what should happen. The way throat works comments and posts don’t get deleted. I’m not sure if they should or not, or even how difficult it would be to implement it.
I'm not sure it'd be too terribly difficult? Just a 'where' in the query, I should think?
But, I'm not even remotely familiar with the DB structure.
Honestly thats over my head, I'm not a web developer or and sql developer, I've said these things since I started the damn site! I've learned a thing or two since I started the site, one I'm an idiot. two I am far less qualified to do things than I thought I was. You have no idea how woefully unqualified I am to run a site like this. I know no one will read this so I'll admit I desperately need help doing this, I have received it in every instance I've needed it. I do not at all deserve this help but its been given freely. At the end of the day people have been much more generous than I deserve. I get a lot more credit that I deserve. Really what I am saying is this thing has become more than I ever thought it would be and for some reason it keeps growing.
Long story short I am just some idiot that knows how to setup linux vms
