Maybe Albummaster came across one of Jack's old posts, and realizing he couldn't ban him any harder, deleted his favourite band from the database? Lol.


This is actually pretty close to what I was thinking too. Laughing

Hi, so it seems that the band "Fucked Up" and all of their albums have been deleted from the database, and all of their albums have been deleted from every chart they're on. Any clue to why this has happened and how it can be restored?

EDIT: Looking at the mod history, it seems Albumaster deleted Fucked Up? Why?

The reason it was deleted was nothing to do with the name of the band or anything else, it was just a dumb mistake while I was going through the database cleaning up duplicates, and deleted the original artist rather than the duplicate, which was accidental & totally stupid Embarassed. I'm attempting to restore all of the data for this artist (& their rankings) from a database backup so hopefully there'll be no holes in the database once it is restored (it takes a little while to do due to the size of the backup file). I've also now added some code to protect this from happening again (not that it matters in this instance).

Thanks AM, just thought it was weird that the band suddenly disappeared. Laughing

Well I guess you could say you... well you didn't 'The Smiths' or you didn't 'Arctic Monkeys' if you know what I mean Wink

It could have been a lot worse (very lucky)! Smile
