"Didn't she delete a bunch of threads in SC 1.0 and then tried to cover it up by altering the post count?"
There's been multiple waves of thread and post deletions in the past, but that was ages ago.
The post count thing was related to how the website calculated your post count. How it displayed on the main page was your number of posts you've ever made, while the post count within your profile page displayed how many still exist on the forum. This let us do some basic subtraction to see how much that we'd lost.
A while back, a topic I made to ask how many people's posts were missing was one of the ones deleted, but that's the closest I can think of there being any sort of "cover up" beyond working under the cover of darkness.
