Before you start jumping up and down and declaring that you have been hacked, why don't you consider a more likely scenario: rather than reporting a spam post, you did what we have been repeatedly asked not to do, and replied to it. Then, when one of the moderators got around to deleting the post, they did so without doing anything else to the thread. This means that your response to a spammer was made the top post. In the future, maybe you will simply hit the "Report" button, rather than reply.

But how do we know xander's account hasn't been hacked, albeit by a sensible but surly hacker?

I don't know if they're snide insinuations or disingenuous assertions, but I've had enough of them!

No wait, I mean, ah yes, "moderators." We have dismissed that claim.

Where is the thread you are mentioning for?

This one right here.

Now, this is interesting. From the logs I can see, xander's analysis is mostly correct. Laika deleted the original post and, in fact, the whole thread. The interesting bit is that this happened a couple of minutes BEFORE greece's first post here. Could it be that you had the original post open in your browser for a bit before you submitted your reply?

Either way, the takeaway is: do not reply to spam, use the report button.

I saw thekillergreece's post in the thread before the spam post was deleted. Could be due to website caching.

Your stats weren't copied to the main author. The forum software takes the information from the first post in the thread and as the spam post was deleted it now gets the information from your post.
