This is being addressed. Rebuilding all of that information takes time
We're up to thread id 550,000. Only about another 600,000 to go. Should be a couple more hours, if the script doesn't crash (fingers crossed).
People will continue to receive this the first time they log in (since the data problem) until we rebuild that data. Since we're already rebuilding a bunch of stuff, we probably won't try to run this until the morning.
Consider me part of this club,
I get....Hello BDLORD. We couldn't help but notice you haven't posted in awhile and wanted to take this opportunity to encourage you to join in the discussions. If you haven't seen anything that has tempted you to post recently, consider heading over to the TravelBuzz! forum ... there is always something interesting/strange/fun being discussed there.

Update
While 'You last visited' is now up to date, my PM folder is still out of sync.

Such rebuilds are a standard background task that's part of vBulletin. Running it on a DB with 10M posts while the system is live would take quite a while. I don't envy the folks who have to keep a board the size of FT functioning.

I got the same message, but it went away after I clicked into another area...
And while I think my PM count is correct (I honestly don't keep track of that...), my date/time is also off.
Yes, this is the first time I got on since the data dump.
...now, if someone could tell me why I'm getting a message from hotmail saying that I don't have an inbox when I've had the danged account for five years (and had an inbox this afternoon!) and can't log into another account (but logged into this afternoon to send a few emails) that is on hotmail, then I'd be happy. But that's not an FT-related problem, so I shouldn't complain too much.

The only difference I noticed in the morning was invisible mode gone missing, which , in my case, hasn't been fixed yet.

I presume this is the reason why old but still-current threads (such as FAQs) appear to have reverted to versions last updated months ago? I went to update an FAQ this morning and was horrified to discover all of the editing work over recent weeks has vanished!

I don't see this mentioned above but I've lost ad-free FT. I'm guessing it is because my Insider Flyer subscription was renewed in January (my subscriptions showing threads from then)? Needless to say on this slow connection FT + ads is crawling.

If that happens on ho'mail, be very concerned. There's a scam going on where hackers take control of the account, change the PW, use it for a really nasty run (the send an e-mail to your address book claiming you're in trouble and need some money fast), then redirect, delete your mailboxes, and dump the account.

* General and occasional system slowness
* My last visited date shows: Dec 31, 08
* My mailbox shows that I have a PM, but no new ones appear in it
* Forums views reflect that the latest posts were on December 29, 2008
* If you click on the link to the thread listed in the forum view, the thread will truncate any posts that took place after December 29, 2008
* I just got this message in CommunityBuzz!
What, pray tell, is going on here?
