He can't reply, because his account (somehow, presumably by accident, though I don't see how) no longer exists. That's why you can't search for it or contact him, and why his posts appear as from a "Guest" with no link to an account.
For digging purposes, he was user #26, so you guys were disturbingly close. Boox is actually six.
Did I just spoil the big ending or something?
Anyway, assuming it was unintentional, his account should be restorable right on the database side without Yoc getting involved at all.

Janus you are the only one who can restore Yoc. Please do so soon we need him. I am not knowledgeable or able to keep things running without him. In the logs you have his IP address. You can see where it looks like my IP changes to another. Those are ones done by Yoc that joined mine since he disappeared. You should have his email address and password to get him reestablished.

just to keep you all updated and aware, even searching 26 does not locate Yoc or anyone. Searching for 25, 27 etc. Results in finding a user. Thanks for the help, however Yoc simply needs to reapply. If there is something I need to be aware of kindly send me a private email.
I am working on some other issues of the site, so I will be around on and off today.
Thanks
Janus

I am pretty sure I know what happened and have mentioned it elsewhere. When you deleted the admin category it wiped out all memory of Yoc. All his eggs must have been in that basket. I have emailed Yoc to reapply. Aussie mentioned that they would both be away for awhile.

Yes, that's what I said. The account is gone. If Yoc reapplies, none of his messages will point to his account and he'd lose his Personal Messages. Regardless of how it might have happened, the most straightforward thing to do would be to pull his information from the database backup and re-insert member #26. It's simple to do, and there's no cleanup afterward. If you don't have the database backup from Serj (which you must), I can use an older forum backup to just hack out the relevant line.

Me, I know nothing. PM Janus and ask him if you or he can do it.

Doesn't it make sense for Yoc to reapply so he's back. If his old account can be restored, the new one can be canceled, but at least he'll be here in the time being

Right now I think he's just "Yoc still falling down the chasm fighting the Balrog" to return later as Yoc the White.

He's projected his consciousness onto alien worlds where he's taking over plant life simulacra of himself. When he gets done with that, he'll be home. Check your house plants. ;-)
