Hi all.
As you may have seen, our April Fool's prank this year was to unleash a horde of angry fleas on the unsuspecting TBT community. The first stage of this was prank was turning each collectible on the site into a flea.
Unfortunately, while trying to revert the collectibles to their original state, there was a mistake that caused all of the images to be lost. While we have some of the collectible images saved in a backup, many of them were irretrievable and will have to be recreated from scratch, meaning they won't look exactly the same once they are restored. The error also caused the database to be corrupted, so it will still take some time to restore once we remake the images. This means that we will have to reissue each collectible manually to every user, which will alter the order in which they appear, as well as remove the original sender's name and any message they included. This entire process could take us anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to complete.
We will post an update when more information is available and we thank you all in advance for your patience. As an apology for this inconvenience, we will be giving away free bells, which you can redeem here.
