@AshishAhuja Hi, I am a mod on Ask Ubuntu and I am afraid I just screwed up. I wanted to delete a spammer's account and I must have clicked on the wrong link and I deleted yours.
I'm really, really sorry!
None of your other accounts are affected, only the AU one.
Anyway, I or SE will keep you informed. I'll let you know as soon as I know more about what can be done. I think that your rep and posts can be restored but you'll have a new account ID.
@AshishAhuja Ah! So you give your flags to smokey?
That explains it. I found the spammer through one of smokey'c chat messages, so I guess I must have clicked on your user name instead of the spammer's by mistake.
I don't know. None of the SE employees are currently online in our network mod room. I've sent them an email and I'll ask one as soon as they come online.
@AshishAhuja SE just got back to me. Apparently, I screwed up more royally than I thought and they can't restore your account.
However, I was told that if you recreate your account, they can reassign your posts to you. That seems like the best compromise. Once again, I'm really sorry.
Also, because I destroyed you as a spammer in my stupidity, your new account will be automatically suspended. Just ping me here or raise a flag or something and I'll unsuspend it for you and then you can get your posts back.
