I lost my avatar and post count by changing email addresses
I've been a member here and visited off and on since 2008.
Last week, I updated my email account under "UserCP" and all seemed to go as expected. Last evening I attempted to post a thread with multiple pictures on the Omega Discussion Forum and was denied because I did not have 10 posts! Upon inspection, I discovered that my information other than my avatar and any reference to previous posts was still displayed, including my join date. I don't know why there was a glitch, but might be something long time members would want to consider before changing information. |

(a) clicking on the paper clip icon on the posting toolbar and then uploading a photograph; or (b) clicking on the photo icon on the posting toolbar and pasting in the link to the photograph hosted by a third party. However, if you try to paste in a link directly into your text window without either (a) or (b) above and you have less than 10 posts you will be stopped. Secondly, you don't say how many posts you had, but in any event it is simply not the case that posts are deleted by a change of email address. I suspect some moderating was done in a thread where you may have previously posted. Posts do not just disappear from a change of email address, otherwise this phenomenon would have been raised multiple times before.
