Default Ah ha! Missing threads?

Apparently, in the past, when I moved a thread and had an "expiring redirect" where the program would leave a 'redirection post' in the topic which the thread was moved from, sometimes the program would delete the actual post and not the expiring redirect.

Quote:
A bug has been discovered in vBulletin 3.6.1 that may cause data loss when the automatic thread redirect deletion system is used.

If you use this system, you should immediately download and install the patch that is now available from vBulletin.com to prevent any data loss.

vBulletin 3.6.2 will be released in the coming days and will contain a fix for this issue and a number of other bugs found in 3.6.1.
So if you're missing a post, chances are it was probably the above problem. And the patch has been applied as well.
