I noticed that too. Maybe his account has been hacked or maybe he did it himself out of spite over something. Problem is that this kind of thing can't be stopped if moderators don't have modding powers like banning or blocking an account.

It seems to me that the same has happens for Robby on the other forum.

I can't believe that anybody but Robby himself did this. 249 posts in this forum all changed to Subject "x" and Content "xxx".

Edit: Typically what a bored kid would do.
Can the content be recovered? We don't want this kind of thing to start happening regularly. And I remember that not so very long ago a series of messages was edited to add spam links, don't think it was the same guy, but his post count was in the 200s as well, IIRC. Na, that was gizmo.

Hello

I have send him a personal email where I told him that all his post are deleted. I did have his normal email adress.

When I sent him an email it bounced. Ed may be able to restore the content, but no one else is likely to be able to do so.

Hello

Did not bounced when I send him a email. I think I have an other address. I can not be sure he looks to the address I use.

I believe that the desired action will differ depending on whether the user did this or if the account was somehow hacked. The later seems unlikely since a spammer would have posted something more dire than three Xs.
