Monarcheon Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 So I've lost my profile picture twice now, and am just wondering if there's some sort of backup system that's going on that causes certain refreshes or something. Quote
Maarten Bauer Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 There are more members that lost their profile picture: Luis Hernández, Markstyles. Quote
Luis Hernández Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Yes, I noticed that. I have no idea how to take it back, but that's not very important... Quote
Monarcheon Posted September 19, 2017 Author Posted September 19, 2017 It keeps happening over and over... Quote
luderart Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) I think it happened to me thrice. I uploaded it back the first two times. But I haven't yet done so this third time. There is a problem that needs to be solved. Could there be some sort of hacking going on? It has even affected the site administrator chopin! Edited September 22, 2017 by luderart Quote
chopin Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Can anyone verify that this is continuing to happen? We did perform a major upgrade a few months ago, but I don't see how that would remove a profile image. The only difference should be that letters now replace a default photo, to make the board look a little nicer when a user opts out of a profile picture. Quote
luderart Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 I think it happened only several days ago to Maarten Bauer. Quote
chopin Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 I advise everyone to update their profile pictures, and the moment this purge happens again, notify me immediately so I can report this strange behavior. 1 Quote

chopin Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Have you noticed if any of your posts were missing? This will help me rule out an issue with the server being rolled back without my knowledge. Quote

chopin Posted November 2, 2017 Posted November 2, 2017 I will assume no then. This never has happened during the history of this site being on this server, so assumption will be that this is a software glitch. I just have no idea how to pinpoint the glitch. So, as soon as your picture is purged again, just let me know! Quote
luderart Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 I just opened my computer and visited YC to find that my profile had changed to the one with an L encircled within a violet circle! Quote
Karisa L Clark Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) I keep trying to change my profile picture back to my logo, but the photo continues to reset to a "K"... :/ --- never mind.... I tried it just now and it seems to have changed back... strange indeed Edited November 16, 2017 by Karisa L Clark Quote
