Question

Dear people,

so like
I haven't been on that much, but when I do I have to reload quite often. Is this because I'm not on as much? I have no idea, always had problems with this ancient account

help

From your sweetest,
sammixboo

Answer 1

i lied about being the sweetest

Answer 2

Not really. Last day OS was very laggy and everyone faced issues. Besides many users have been facing 'oops lost connection...' occasionaly so yeah it's part of being here and not only occuring to you. So cheers!

P.S. You lied. I am sweetest XD

Answer 3

Yes I know c; thanks for the update. Anything new that happened in the past 2 months? Doesn't seem like it

Answer 4

it was from the kill sequence of the mass deletion of accounts, should be relatively quiet as of now, engineers still working on it

Answer 5

ooo lala it was lagging today too, literally it took me 30 min to log in to OS

Answer 6

Can anyone explain about this deleting accounts business? Is someone doing this manually or what?

Answer 7

should be an automatic process with the code, jay, TSO, and others have tons of alts that needed to be deleted

Answer 8

currently suspended users should be free from deletion

Answer 9

Jay, understandable. He has quite a few..

This is so weird. Needed to be done, of course, but it seems like some people are having issues with this?

Answer 10

yes, but it helped take care of a lot of the underage users as well as all the inactive accounts, although I think they should have saved some mods ;-; @bostonblue @c0decracker @chris @farmdawgnation and @ಠ_ಠ all got deleted

Answer 11

Chris and C0degot deleted??? Interesting. Just making me curious because I have been going inactive for long periods of time and whatnot. SO have some other users.

Answer 12

Seems like some active people and people in the right age range got deleted too. Am I correct?

Answer 13

yes but @e.mccormick @tkhunny and other inactives made it through

Answer 14

yes some of them requested to be deleted

Answer 15

all u have to do really if ur a mod/ambi/qualified helper is do the email thing i think

Answer 16

Well, yeah. Some didn't request it from what I've seen.

I have had no email or anything about this, so I am curious, but it seems like everything is fine since I'm still here

Answer 17

yes if they have ur information already u should be fine, confused on why texaschic got deleted,

Answer 18

Exactly, so they made some mistakes in the system that they used to wipe out these accounts.

Answer 19

should be able to be restored tho, as long as somebody responsible takes the username, the devs can restore the entire account back to normal, like done so with @satellite73

Answer 20

One of the admins said it took a lot of work, so getting everyones account back is sadly unlikely.

Answer 21

Should they have gotten approval from users? I know this was a somewhat similar, big discussion a while back. Having the ability to delete your own account. Had many pros and cons.

Answer 22

they could have worked something out for approval for people above 75 SS or something, since main purpose was to get rid of inactives, like a bunch of people ask one question and never use OS again

Answer 23

Yeah I understand why they did it, and trust me.. It needed to be done... BUUUUT if it deleted active, amazing, and helpful users then not so much.

Answer 24

i agree :P

Answer 25

rip @c0decracker 4ever in our hearts <3333333

Answer 26

welp OS on my ancient win vista on computer made in 2008 works quit fast. :)

Answer 27

;~;

Answer 28

Sammiii!!!! I missed your lovely beard (jay kay)

Yes, I've also been experiencing lag, especially the chats. Feel bad for mods since they have twice the notifs...
