Hello,
As you guys must had seen that Post4VPS Forum was Closed for last 10 hours..
Well let me make this publically.One of our Staff member's had saw that @Hero^ was trying to cheat the Credits system.
what he was doing was creating random long posts which gives him credits and as soon as after creating, he deletes them too which would not deduct any credit from his account(since it can only be deducted when the posts get deleted permanently).
And ofcource one of our staff member just saw him doing that and reported to me, First I thought of deleting his posts permanently but deleting posts permanently deducts more than what much he had got for creating them. So I just thought of choosing the all member credit recount option, But after recounting everyone's Credits I found that it wasn't counting accurately.. users like having $750 credits gone down to $88..
that's why I closed the Forum yesterday for maintenance and after trying everything I got to only one conclusion which was restoring old backuped Forum database(which was 10-11 hours older).
By doing this we lost:
57 posts, 9 threads & 1 user data.
What if anyone try to cheat the Credit system like @Hero^ again ?
Well Now if you even type a Very long post and try to delete it, it won't give you a single credit.. since We have updated our Credit system in which this have been fixed up.
I never thought that this can be serious
Sorry for the inconvenience caused
