I'll look into it this weekend. As I no longer player tf2, and it’s the same for most of my friends, I don’t check the site that often, so, I actually wasn’t aware that it was no longer updating.

Silly as it may sound, I always set myself a goal to improve my PPH every day... I miss being able to track that. Just curious if 4fite is going to get back up and running at any point.

I then have to add myself to 4fite again (already in the 4fite group of course) after which it refreshes and everything is fine again. I'll take a screen-shot next time it happens.

So the groups you're looking at probably had data so stale that it didn't matter. The player may have been active but 4fite doesn't update them regularly unless they are registered, so it wouldn't know. The only other time a player should be deleted is when the steam website returns an error on their profile; 'private profile', or 'user has not yet set up their steam community profile', or 'invalid profile id', etc. I think there's a banned notice now too which I probably don't take into account. Players changing IDs may also cause issues because this was all built before there were XML feeds with fixed IDs available. There is also a 4fite group-specific sync script that isn't running properly on the new server yet, I have to trigger it manually, which I probably haven't done in a long while - doing it now. Is http://tf2.4fite.com/player/tyris/ you? If this profile were deleted in the above prune, it would have removed the history at the same time. Or do you mean removed from the group, not the profile?

The groups page I regularly visit has far less members listed, and I have personally been deleted from 4fite about 3 times now... Why is this happening? Another somewhat un-related (to 4fite at least) question I have is: Steam doesnt seem to be updating class statistics... any idea why this is (I've a number of new records that have never propagated to valves server). 4fite seems to be culling players… The groups page I regularly visit has far less members listed, and I have personally been deleted from 4fite about 3 times now… Why is this happening?

FYI I had to pause it again :S Looks like a couple of things added to valve's site that my updater doesn't like yet. Should be back in a couple of days. Cheers.

For now, updates are disabled until I can figure out why they don't like it. I haven't changed the update process for about 9 months either so, no idea why they decide against it now. In summary: site on, updates off until I can restructure it.
