[No Solution] My old posts are gone, and this broke some threads. Sorry about the mess.

Title basically says it all. When I view my profile, no threads, posts, or messages appear under their respective categories (despite category rollup indications otherwise).
Edit: Update. Everything I've ever done here is gone. All the threads I've made, all the posts I've made, everything no longer exists.
Edit 2: Issue identified, there is no resolution. Fare ye well, jdarksun's posts August 12, 2003 - August 5, 2012.

May be an idiotic theory. Unless there is some reason the system isn't recognizing all the posts.
Kinda doubt it, but who knows.
It seems kinda... specific.
Something about your posts / post count broke EVERYTHING.
I'm really, really hoping my posts aren't gone forever. It isn't about the post count; I'm going to miss all the roleplaying posts I've made.
See, he's Jdarksun. You're jdarksun. Stop trying to steal his work, imposter
Theory: Those threads will show new pages when the post count - your missing posts syncs up with what "should" cause a new page to appear.
Hopefully it's just a desync thing and the forums need re-indexing.
Will his posts come back after the fix? And will the threads fix themselves?
If there is some way to restore just one thread, the Marvel Heroic RPG Event I was getting set to run had several posts that five other users had put a lot of time and effort into. Google has a cache that's a few days old, so it's not a total loss, but I'm sure Grog and Sneaks would be super appreciative if their posts could be recovered.
If not, oh well. We'll survive.
I know it's already been declared as "nothing to be done" just wanted to make sure someone was aware it did more than just nuke one person or some subset of people; the thread has no posts after the 27th, but we've been posting in it as recently as Friday.
A list of things, should you be of the gifting persuasion
Actually, the pages aren't missing, @Nullzone- they just aren't presumed to be there. There are 17 pages currently visible in the thread (it only lists up to 17, #latest url goes to bottom of page 17). But if you go to page 16, manually edit the url to page 18 or 19, the pages are there and viewable.
So no data lost, just the forum doesn't realize there are two pages when it displays the thread, and pretends they don't exist.
Edit: this is the last page in the thread, but if I go to the latest page by clicking on the bookmark, I get page 17, along with the navigation on the top and bottom only going to 17,
Edit2: Since jdark is in the game, probably the forum is not counting his posts in the total pagecount, but the posts are counting in the posts per page. So basically jdark's 2 pages worth of posts are taking up 2 pages of space, but are being excluded from the logic of "x posts / y posts per page = z pages of posts".

It's a really, REALLY long shot, especially given the titanic amount of data around this place.
... As consolation, jdarksun should totally get a badger out of this.
