Edit: To save some time, submissions are still there, they just aren't showing on the userpage. Click the view gallery thingy and they're still there. I'll leave the rest still though.
Edit2: Okay, if my gallery isn't showing my stuff, then apparently I'm the only one that can see them...as I checked some other users, and the gallery reflects what's on the userpage...I dunno. Maybe FA is just having a really big heart-attack or something.
Edit3: The first 2 edits are pointless, as is most of the text below. Somehow I managed to turn off my adult artwork setting, and took me until just now to notice. Go me. I'm a big dork, apparently.
Now, for your guys' sake, I hope you actually bothered to read this. With all the talk about accounts being compromised lately, I'm sure many of you are/were thinking "Yeah, I'm good." as far as passwords or whatnot goes. I was. I thought I'd been careful. I thought I was secure. Wrong. The one key thing that I didn't think really mattered came back to bite me hard. For simplicity's sake, I typically use the same password (or slight variations thereof) for most things...I didn't figure it was a big deal. But apparently some asshole got ahold of one that just so happened to match my FA password and took the liberty of clearing my submission list for me. Now, I've realized that the fact that I have only 4 favs now is attributed to other people's galleries suffering massive deletions as well, so I'm starting to wonder if maybe it's more than just a password security issue...I mean, it's a bit farfetched to that that so many people's accounts could be compromised overnight, let alone practically everyone on my watch list...but we need to be careful now. Passwords should be changed regardless of whether one has been affected or not...security is of the utmost importance right now. And, to all my avid readers, I'll have my stuff back up soon. It's frustrating, having lost all the comments I've received, but there's not much that can be done about it at this point.
