Except they're also apparently restoring even edited posts and comments.
Source?
I scrubbed two accounts on the 13th, and they're both back with the original posts as of this morning the 16th.
Same for me
Hmmm, not to be an apologist, but I wonder if this isn't a data set integrity problem on reddits end. I reran PowerDeleteSuite, and it "acted funny" through the process.
When I checked my profile again, some posts were edited, and others were not. As I was paging through and manually editing the misses, the list of pages got shorder and shorter.
Perhaps a cache flush? I'm not saying put away the pitchforks here, just... This is weird.
Wouldn't be the first time reddit's backend went to total shit lol
I will add that I periodically purge my account and this is the first time this has happened. Of course, this could be that it's because a bunch of people are purging their accounts right now.
